The Devil
Whispers of Redemption: Battling the Devil in Oklahoma Winds
Lyrics
This Oklahoma wind, is blowin’ holes right through my soul
The strong Oklahoma wind is deeply affecting my emotions or inner being.
And the rain it just keeps comin’, my mind is everywhere but home
The continuous rain is causing distraction and preventing a sense of belonging or comfort.
Up in the distance, the good times show their face
Despite challenges, there are glimpses of happier moments or better times ahead.
The world’s playin’ tricks on me, it’s got me runnin’ in place
Feeling stuck or stagnant due to the confusing nature of the world.
So take away the rain baby
Asking for relief from troubles or hardships symbolized by the rain.
Cause the Devil knows my name
Feeling a connection with or being pursued by negative forces symbolized as "the Devil."
He’s breathin’ down my neck baby
Sensing a looming threat or negative influence that is close and unsettling.
Hope the good Lord can take me away
Hoping for divine intervention or guidance to overcome these challenges.
Well I woke up today, with the sun and a big smile on my face
Waking up with a positive outlook and contentment.
Cause those times are in the past, and that’s exactly where they’re gonna stay
Being resolved that past difficulties will not affect the present or future.
And I finally realized, I was the only thing standin’ in my way
Realizing that personal obstacles were the main hindrance to progress.
And for the first time in awhile, the sky looks blue and not so grey
Experiencing a positive change in perspective, seeing hope and optimism.
So take away the rain baby
Requesting relief from troubles once again.
Cause the Devil knows my name
Feeling the persistent presence of negativity or challenges symbolized as "the Devil."
He’s breathin’ down my neck baby
Sensing the imminent threat or influence of negativity.
Hope the good Lord can take me away
Seeking divine assistance or salvation to overcome these negative forces.
Well you took away the rain baby
Experiencing relief from troubles or negative influences.
And the Devil drove away
Feeling liberated or freed from the grip of negativity symbolized as "the Devil."
He’s headed back to hell baby
Symbolically stating the departure of negativity or evil.
And the good Lord took me away
Experiencing a sense of divine intervention or rescue.
