Got you concerned by some unconscious mistake   A bit blacker magic for that soul selling sake   Kinda caught you cold, a wicked twist on your fate   Could call it crucifixion or subdue to create      Got you fooled by a mass demand   Bragging 'bout fortunes you're about to land   And your loudmouth got your conscious sore   But it feels so good when you scream for more      The Devil stole the beat from the Lord   It's time to set things straight   Bragging like a brat that you got away   You're goin' down and you have to pay      Got you counting numbers and talking in tongues   Got your name in blood, suck the air from your lungs   And they have you playin' such devious games   Where no bets are even, the dealer's always the same      Now your illusions, they don't seem so grand   What you call yours is just second hand   Never question what they want from you   Just get up and dance when they tell you to      The Devil stole the beat from the Lord   It's time to set things straight   Bragging like a brat that you got away   You're goin' down and you have to pay      It's hard to smile   When you choke on your laughter   But the Lord works in mysterious ways   Without a hint or a clue      Got you fooled by a mass demand   Bragging 'bout fortunes you're about to land   And your loudmouth got your conscious sore   But it feels so good when you scream for more      The devil stole the beat from the Lord   Do you got what it takes   Keep braggin' like a brat that you got away   Thought you'd last till the end   But you don't have the means, oh no, you don't      The Devil stole the beat from the Lord   And the melody sway   You're goin' down and you have to pay   [Incomprehensible]   Yeah, you have to pay
