Demon In My View

Diabolous
There’s a demon in my view
Venomous
For those who are not of the worthy few
Satanized
There’s demon in my view
Treacherous
Your blood would freeze if you only knew

My demon, my friend, my lair
My demon, no burden, to bear

I will stay inside
I cannot be exorcised
You need me
As much as I need you

I’m the one who whispers
Wisdom in your ear
I’m the one who keeps your back
Straight and erect

I am your only friend
No one else will take the blame
When you show your face
And stand up for yourself

This is the ugly truth
The ego, your own pursuit
A man is a man
Is a man’s best friend

Subconsciously
There’s a demon in my view
Viciously
If you’re the kind who won’t follow through
Consistently
There’s a demon in my view
Ruthlessly
He’ll slaughter those who are crossing me

My demon, my ally, my peer
My demon, my keeper, from fear

I will stay inside
I cannot be exorcised
You need me
As much as I need you

I’m the one who whispers
Wisdom in your ear
I’m the one who keeps your back
Straight and erect

I am your only friend
No one else will take the blame
When you show your face
And stand up for yourself

This is the ugly truth
The ego, your own pursuit
A man is a man
Is a man’s best friend
