Lyrics

I have found that the devil may reside

The speaker has discovered that malevolence might dwell within them.

Inside these hands of mine,

They feel that this darkness or negativity exists within their own capabilities or actions.

If you piss me off

A warning to watch one's words and actions as it could provoke a strong reaction.

Be careful how you talk when you come around me boy.

Cautioning someone to be mindful of their behavior around the speaker.

I'm liable to come out to your home,

Expressing a potential willingness to take drastic action by going to someone's home.

Drag you out and give you what you deserve

Threatening to confront and mete out deserved consequences.

And every broken bone will be a testament to show

Each injury inflicted will serve as proof or evidence of the consequence of losing control.

The world what happens when a man cannot control

Highlighting the consequences when a person lacks self-restraint.

His words and actions and when he doesn't know enough to know

When someone lacks awareness and doesn't discern when to stop, trouble is inevitable.

When to leave well enough alone

Implying that trouble arises when one can't recognize when things are acceptable as they are.

There's bound to be trouble when you love a woman

The difficulty or conflict that comes with deeply loving a woman.

The way I love that woman.

Expressing the intensity of the speaker's love for a particular woman.

Every moment gone, I'd have been there all along

Regret for not being present in every past moment.

I swear I would if I had only known

If the speaker had known, they would have been there throughout.

Every moment gone, I'd kill em if I could

An expression of intense regret or anger, wishing harm on someone for their actions.

I'd make him pay for everything he'd done

Desire for retribution for the wrongs committed by someone.

Never so satisfied as when inside my mind's eye

Satisfaction derived from a mental image or plan of harming the individual.

These hands are choking the sweet breath of life from him.

Symbolically strangling the life out of someone through metaphorical means.

He's serious this time, you raised your hand for the last time.

An indication that a situation has escalated, implying a final warning or confrontation.

I'm liable to come out to your home,

Reiteration of the readiness to take forceful action by going to someone's home.

Drag you out and give you what you deserve.

Reaffirming the threat of delivering deserved consequences.

And every broken bone will be a testament to show

Similar to line 7, injuries as proof of uncontrolled actions.

The world what happens when a man cannot control

Reiterating the consequences of lacking self-restraint and awareness.

His words and actions and when he doesn't know enough to know

Re-emphasizing the ignorance of recognizing when to stop.

When to leave well enough alone.

Emphasizing the difficulty of knowing when things are acceptable as they are.

Even if you wanted there's no going back now

Implying that a situation has progressed too far to be reversed or rectified.

You dug your own grave boy, I'll put you in it early.

Stating that consequences are inevitable due to one's own actions.

They're your sisters, they're your mothers,

Pointing out the familial relationships of the person being addressed, implying a connection to responsibility or consequences.

You're their fathers, you're their mothers.

Reiterating familial connections and their implications in the situation.
