MET THE DEVIL

Описание: [Verse 1]
I was raised on noise and broken trust
Rust on my halo, teeth full of dust
Mama said, “Boy, don’t play with fate”
But fate had my name carved into its blade

White lines cutting through the rain
Every promise tastes like pain
I tried to walk the straight damn path
But the dark kept calling me back

[Pre-Chorus]
Hands shaking, heart beat loud
Lost my faith in the screaming crowd
One step left, one step right
Every choice feels like a fight

[Chorus – BIG, anthemic]
I met the devil at the crossroads, eyes burning red
He said, “Sign your name, I’ll clear your head”
I said, “Hell no, I won’t sell my soul”
But I felt his fire when I lost control
Yeah, I met the devil at the crossroads tonight
Tried to steal my future, kill my light
I walked away, but I still feel close
To the night I met the devil at the crossroads

[Verse 2]
Billboards preaching empty dreams
Gold-plated lies and busted schemes
Everybody wants a piece of me
But nobody’s here when I bleed

Got scars I don’t show online
Truth hits harder when you’re outta time
I chased that crown, I chased that sound
Till the floor gave out and I hit the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
Voices crawling in my head
Every word that I never said
One more chance, one last stand
Blood and dirt on both my hands

[Chorus]
I met the devil at the crossroads, teeth full of sin
He said, “One bad choice, let the chaos in”
I said, “Fuck that deal, I know the cost”
I’ve lost too much, I won’t be lost
Yeah, I met the devil at the crossroads alone
Tried to carve his name into my bones
I walked away, but I still feel close
To the night I met the devil at the crossroads

[Breakdown – heavy, rhythmic]
No crown, no throne
No leash on my soul
I bend, I break
But I don’t fold

[Bridge – melodic lift]
If I burn, let it be my flame
If I fall, I’ll rise the same
I won’t kneel, I won’t decompose
I choose my path, I choose my road

[Final Chorus – biggest]
I met the devil at the crossroads, made my stand
Shook off his grip, wiped blood from my hands
I don’t need heaven, I don’t need control
I just need truth in a broken soul
Yeah, I met the devil at the crossroads, survived
Still breathing, still alive
I walked away, yeah, I came back whole
From the night I met the devil at the crossroads

[Outro – stripped, ominous]
Every road still pulls me close
But I know now who holds the rope
Yeah… I met the devil at the crossroads
And I walked away
