In The Hands Of The Devil
Resisting the Devil's Grip: A Soul's Struggle Unveiled
Lyrics
When I was young
Reflecting on childhood experiences
I was a strange child
Describing a sense of uniqueness or peculiarity
I struggled to fit in
Difficulty in fitting into societal norms
They gave me labels
Received negative judgments and categorizations
Said I was trouble
Labeled as troublesome by others
That I should repent for my sins
Encountered pressure to repent for perceived wrongdoings
So they took me to down to the water
Subjected to a ritual involving water
They pushed me to my knees
Forced into a submissive position
And I rejected the devil
Expressed resistance to succumbing to evil
But somehow he's still here with me
Despite resistance, a lingering connection with negativity
Please say you won't let me drown
Plea for support and protection from drowning
When they take me down
Anticipation of being taken down again
Back to the water today
Reference to a return to the symbolic water
Please say you won't let me drown
Reiteration of the plea for non-drowning
And I won't put my life in the hands of the devil again
Commitment to avoiding negative influences
Now that I'm older
Reflection on adulthood without necessarily gaining wisdom
But no more wiser
Continuation of facing similar challenges
The same things apply
Consistent struggles from the past haunting the present
Ghosts from my past
Residual effects of previous experiences
Have followed me here
Persisting challenges with no escape
There's nowhere to hide
Feeling trapped or exposed
They took me to down to the water
Repetition of the water ritual experience
They pushed me to my knees
Recurrence of being pressured into submission
And I rejected the devil
Reiterated resistance to succumbing to evil
But somehow he's still here with me
Continued struggle with negative influences
Please say you won't let me drown
Renewed plea for protection from drowning
When they take me down
Anticipation of being taken down once more
Back to the water today
Reference to returning to the symbolic water
Please say you won't let me drown
Reiteration of the plea for non-drowning
And I won't put my life in the hands of the devil again
Commitment to avoiding the influence of the devil
All of the things you didn't give to me
Acknowledgment of unfulfilled needs and desires
All of the things you didn't give to me
Repetition of unmet expectations
Guidance safety security
Lack of guidance, safety, and security in upbringing
Are all of the things you didn't give to me
Highlighting unprovided essentials in life
Say you won't let me drown
Renewed plea for protection from drowning
When they take me down
Anticipation of being taken down once more
Back to the water today
Reference to returning to the symbolic water
Please say you won't let me drown
Reiteration of the plea for non-drowning
And I won't put my life in the hands of the devil again
Commitment to avoiding the influence of the devil
