Jahson Tafari – Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead Lyrics
Artist: Jahson Tafari
Song: Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead
I can keep it civil
I’d rather keep it silent
Cause my judgment can be fickle
I’m poetically defiant
I’ll leave you with a symbol
A victim to my violence
The verdict would be simple
Companionless confinement
I can hurt your feelings take the pain and make it linger
Turn my words into a noose to tie your tongue like I’m a rigger
Double knotted got you talking like you’re Tigger
You should stop forcing my fingers cause I’m fluent in your triggers
I said what I said
Don’t let all the blood run straight to your head
All of that confidence you’ll wind up dеad
They’ll call you Icarus, laughing instead
When you lay in your bеd
Be happy that God’s the big man
Be happy he sees what I can’t
We live and die by my knife
But, God’s hand is more empathetic than mine would’ve been
Let’s just say
If it were up to me
When you go home to pay your debts
It’d be a half an hour in Hell before the Devil knows you’re dead
Let’s air this out in public
You wanted some attention
But, this content may be graphic
I advise viewers discretion
I’m the reason you’re a topic
Hold the lubrication
I made you with Mary’s logic
That’s immaculate conception
I can curse your name and keep it hidden like a censor
You’re my puppet on a string
I think I’ll call you tiny dancer
Coming at your neck cause it’s my favorite limb to sever
But, I’m not taking your place I’m the initial predecessor
I said what I said
Don’t let all the blood run straight to your head
All of that confidence you’ll wind up dead
They’ll call you Icarus, laughing instead
When you lay in your bed
Be happy that God’s the big man
Be happy he sees what I can’t
We live and die by my knife
But, God’s hand is more empathetic than mine would’ve been
Let’s just say
If it were up to me
When you go home to pay your debts
It’d be a half an hour in hell before the Devil knows you’re dead
There’s a story ‘bout a man who was so stuck in his ways
Let his pride eat him alive
I’ll tell it if I may
Gotta hurry cause the clock just struck judgment day
So, before you start being a saint
God’s favorite angel was a sinner
He couldn’t stop the misbehaving
And when he’s done taking his orders
Just know nobody could of saved him
He sent all the King’s horses and all the King’s men
Out for the bounty, it’s off with your head
They’ll call you Goliath when they pay respect
But what do you expect when you said you’re the big man
I clean up well there’d be no evidence
We live and die by my knife
And David is waiting for his cue to avenge the victim
And I said
If it were up to me
When you go home to pay your debts
It’d be a half an hour in Hell before the Devil knows you’re dead
Before he knows
