Sometimes
The most painful reckoning
Is to stare in the eyes of the sinner
And watch them smile and pretend
As if they've never burned you
They are always there
Even when i can't see them
I can sense them.
Creeping around the outskirts of my conscience
Venom seeping from their lips
The devil knows people would rather pay for a lie then be freed with the truth and ask to try.
That's why lost and without solvation so many people die.
How the hell are you so blind?
Yes I'm the Devil in disguise
Ask the God you love so much
If I am worth his saving touch
Ask the spirits that I see
If they will ever, ever leave
So What Does LOVE REALLY Mean To You .... ???
Your Lovers' Touch Or The Things They DO .... ???
That Make You FEEL Your Love Is REAL ... ?!?
her lips were a bloody crimson, calling attention in the dim light of crowded dance floor.
[her dress was hellfire, scorching those who got too close]
her voice was soft, husky

The Jersey devil still lurks today
Except not in that same old way
When the mother of 13 birthed a devil
She never thought that we would revel

3 years ago, i was sitting in a quiet classroom, in a new building, with unfamiliar faces surrounding me
The scene begins
The FIRST BOY waits
Framed by shame and regret
that hang around his neck like chains
The DEVIL whispers in his ear
You foolish foolish boy
I whispered with the devil and he told me what to do. He said some people might not like it, even me, and it's true. Whether it's a noose around my neck, or a bullet in my head, he said he doesn't care at all; he just needs me dead.
From the Heavens, You Have Fallen
Were you leaping across growing mountains?
Or swimming in the cytoplasm of a cell?
Perhaps you were drinking from the milky way.
From the heavens, you fell,
God hired angels
To write some books
Those books
Were called life
The angels have to
Choosing our destiny
Arranging our fates
Erasing our dumb choices
I am laughingThat I can be dummyBut I am still laughingAs the world looks badlyAnd the time passed quicklyI found myself lazyI am toughing that I am triflingAll are passed to me and runI look to the time in runI am searching ,searchingTo find myse
There's a chill in the air,
or maybe it's in my skin.
A presence that lingers
like a snake gliding across my palms
There's a knock.
I wonder who it is.
But the door remains closed,
I’ve been face to face with the Devil.
I have braved darkness, deep and shallows.
Above and beneath the bowls.
O! The howls!
I came a long way on this hell road, with my eyes closed,
Lost in a sea of loneliness-
Drowning in this ocean of tears.
I have no life.
I'm suffocated by fear.
Visited the Lord just once-
Guess I've died the second death.
Trapped in my mind to scream and yell;
Hi, it's You here, the combination of You' and You'''
You''' is my right, and you You', is my left.
You are always there with me,
during my bad times.
I may have believed in God
But I always thought the devil was a farce
Sitting in the cramped closet of a church for Sunday School
I am scared they will find out soon in due time
‘twill be the end of promises I’ve made
Something important in exchange of mine
Fair but funny from a creature of hate
None shall find out, it will mean death if so
Night
Dappled and worn through the excesses of time,
modest moonlight filters in
through the gauze of the dancing curtain
My name is Noor.
When I was 5 years old, I asked my mother: What does my name mean?
Her answer was the same as God's answer when a 5 year old Lucifer asked Him "What does my name mean?"
And the battle begins... He strikes from every angle...He sneaks in through them doors of... lust and desire.And every time you're weak, angry hungry or tired...HE FIRES! Liar....
Right and wrong is no longer definedBy a divided line Morality no longer exists in the human mindTruth has been overcome by compromise and lies
"Once upon a time an angel and a devil fell in love. They started seeing each other and didn't care what anyone will think about them. Till then the gods found out about them and prohibited seeing each other.
I've got a word for everybody,
Ain't nobody's gon call me 'buddy'
Until I've done something nasty like sell my soul to the earthly daddy,
Do you like your photo taken?
Can you stand without even shaken?
I can hear him
whisper in my ear,
he calls my name,
controls me with fear.
These vile demons
running in my head,
live in my dreams
and beneath my bed.
I feel guilty.
That Girl
I’m the girl with the sunny side smile
The girl with the head thrown back laughing.
I’m the girl with the fake identity
The girl with the plastered on grin.
Stumble, trip and fall
I will arise once more
No weight may break me
No obstacle may bar me
I will overcome it all
No demon shall sway me
Falling
Down, down
Reaching
Up, up
Trying to grasp onto a lifeline
To save me from the shadows lurking behind
Following me everywhere I go
Hiding in the depths of my mind
Satan is working extra hard and he's coming after me and you.We must resist his evil temptations, that is what we must do.When Lucifer makes people do us wrong, it's best to forgive them.
Oh Rose of the Battlefield
Your innocence is seen a victimization
The demons belittle you
"God loves all" The scripture might say this
But you feel like you've been curse since genesis
Oh Rose of the Battlefield
I had a strange dream last night,
I was a cop in a lengthy firefight
I was scared and the long awaited back up was just not coming
Bang! Bang! The shots rang!
And all my mind kept shouting was “run Charles run!”
Fear's child. you only know the terrifying gripping fear
Pain's child. the deep and winding scars are your identity
Hate's child. the red hot anger is what makes you feel complete
My body is a temple
Which I used to respect
But now, I’ve gone and fucked it up
My temple is a mess
Reality, my bane;
mundanity, my employer.
If I could sell boredom,
life would be livelier.
Fantasy, my dream;
my imaginings, my world.
I've tried to put the pieces together to figure out why I ever cared.I think I tried fixing you, if I could do that simple task I would feel better.I couldn't fix you and I wound up falling for you.
I pledge Allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America.
This first line always makes me queasy.
It doesn't sound
I left her
Afraid scared and alone.
My guardian angel needs me.
I did not know my heart was her home.
I felt I could fight alone,
But I proved I am weak broken and a wreck.
The Devil is trying to knock me down
The Devil is intimidated by my mental
But God says I’m the talk of the town
There is something about me that’s elemental
The devil was once an angel.
So kind; could do no harm.
But once he drinks,
out comes the belt,
and the anger of his past
I left you for a reason,
hoping you won't hurt me again,
You're a devil. You're a menace.
No more love for you is your penance.
You're irrational. You're belligerent.
How stupid was I to think you were different?
Everyone you meet -
the ones that you avoid-
these people are your reflection.
See yourself as they see you,
Would you be welcomed or Rejected.
there's something so very strangeabout having to rearrangethe thoughts inside my headin order to go to bedbecause i just want to sleepbut my brain wants one more peepand, Lord, here's my soul to keep
A fear that cannot be tamed
An evil that cannot be forsaken
A scream that cannot be heard
These are the demons
Who haunt us every day
Who taunt the sanctity of salvation
Snickety diddle I am I am I am the devil
I dig ditch-deep drilling holes in souls
They say I'm sour but this simply isn't true
I'm sweeter than sugar from the cane
I plant cavities in their hearts
Up. Down. Smile. Frown.
This is a lesson
On- manic depression
You may be in college, yet you still lack knowledge
This is a game. You and I are not the same
It’s never nice, especially on a good
day, Where it loves and would,
Tell of your secrets as if you were,
Playing a game of taboo.
It loves tricks, no treats
If there are people, there are spirits.
If there is a God, there is a Devil.
If there are angels, there are demons.
One cannot exist without the other.
tell me to go to hell
tell me i'll burn there
tell me i'm the devil's spawn
i really dont fucking care
tell me you'll pray for me
tell me you have hope
tell me i'm not that bad
The Few.
This way of life is not for everyone;
Most think we're crazy, which might be true.
There's no black, white, or brown, just green.
Serving my Country with pride,
Along side my Corps family.
The Devils Eyes
That’s a frosty way to speak
To tell me how to live your dream.
I believed in you
So you should believe in me.
Like fire I tried,
I bled into the night,
God’s tears rain from the heavens as the innocent confess
Others are surrounded by the Devil’s hatred
Blanketing them in villainous greed
A tyranny that little can escape
In the night, she woke in various states of detachment.
Real was not real; what is real? Reality?
Such a permanent thing, to be thought of as only living
In the day, but why?
In a crowd you are bound to spot him
He is standing so very tall
Not too much impresses him
He has seen and done it all.
His hair is short, eyes are sharp, and not a smile is seen
I was lost in the details
And the devil was there
We spoke at length
The small talk was fair
There I am, kneeling with my head bowed down
Wear the cross around my heart
Hands together, there’s no such thing as too much prayer
Duty calls to spread the love
But when the black gates open
"Won't you reconsider?" He said with a smirk
I try not to quiver, He catches a jerk
of the wrist, just a twitch, but enough to reveal
the nerves, now induced, by the thought of His work
Swimming are the trout fish, swimming are they freeOne girl dose run, an angle from aboveDeep inside the forest, where the bird do not sing.Silent waits the devils son, heartless he will be, Beside the river the girl dose runs,Her wings spread out
Things come and change
The Darkness will comfort you
Do not fret
Do not cry
All you have to do is call one guy.
Speak of the Devil,
And the Devil shall appear.
I finally realized to open my eyes
just to find myself blinded by the minds of the stereotypical
I never dreamed of a scheme
such that I would believe to achieve
The angel’s wings tingling
Flying above the people mingling
Trying to keep up with the bells jingling
The angel’s keep watch closely
You set the mold
Every day consists of pieces of you
Differentiate life lessons and sheer misery
I’m unable to see
That words can mean more than deceit
This can't be all that’s around me
When you awake
The devil sits beside me,
undresses from his clothes
Says he wants to love me,
the only love I've ever known.
He kisses with his lips,
but doesn't mean it in his eyes
The only thing he loves
Bring out the blades, we're ready to go
in the night, in the day, in the storm
the enemy is all around, his darkness masked as light
you'll see him only if you look,
just like the Father, bright
I see you in the corner of my eyes,
Black projections or just figments of my imagination.
With just a glance, a glimpse then your gone.
I feel your pain, I see the fear, knowing my time is near.
You play a part
While I fall apart
Under the weather, now...
Under the weather, now...
And I beg you please
for some room just to breathe
under the weather now...
under the weather now...
From the depths of hell, the Devil comes to play.
It's a game where there is no use in pray.
Where heroes dig their own graves.
And where the brave becomes slave.
They say he was the most beautiful angel of all, but he questioned god’s rule and thus had to fall. Sent down below like a misshapen star, he was made to imprison all the evils there are.
Watching the sunset
And I began to feel empty, ...
tortured and drained and even a bit of envy.
Tears well in my eyes
And I can no longer control
these emotions that have been put on hold.
There's a garden
Grown by the Devil's reapers
And they plant souls
Of all earth's little creatures
They'll give you the peace
You wouldn't find in any preacher
Ladies and gentlemen I present to you
One Adrian Malobolgia
He’s the son of the devil
He lives here, in queens, on the roof of 14172 85th road
I know you play for keeps but my God does too. And I can guarantee he is much better than you. He loved me so much he died on a cross. What you bring to the table and what you have done is one in the same; all you offer me is loss.
