the devil i know

verse 1
i learned young how to read the room
their eyes can’t hide the lies beneath
every smile had a hidden cost
every promise came with t–th
they said, “trust us, we’re all you’ve got,”
while sharpening nails behind the door
i survived by staying ready
expecting less, preparing for war

pre-chorus
i don’t pray for saving grace
i just brace for the truth
when you’ve been burned by every hand
you stop believing they ever had proof

chorus
so i’ll take the devil i know
over angels dressed in skin
i’ve seen heaven rot from the inside
i won’t knock on that door again
if the ground shakes when i stand my ground
let it crack, let it show—
i’d rather face the fire i’ve met
than kneel to the devil i don’t know
verse 2
i watched crowns built out of guilt
watched loyalty get sold cheap
they preach forgiveness out loud
then bury knives six inches deep
i learned silence can be violence
learned love can be a leash
so i keep my circle honest
even if its only me!

pre-chorus 2
i don’t chase empty apologies
or ghosts that never change
i’d rather carry scars i earned
than wear someone else’s shame

chorus
so i’ll take the devil i know
over saints who hide their sin
i’ve heard truth whisper from the dark
when the light was caving in
if this road’s paved with broken trust
then i’ll walk it slow—
i’d rather bleed by my own hand
than bow to the devil i know
bridge
i made peace with the shadows i carry
they don’t pretend to be my friend
every lesson was paid in full
i won’t make that payment again
you can keep your silver tongues
your scripted empathy—
i earned my name in the wreckage
and that’s enough for me

i know exactly what i’m dealing with
so i can’t be drug back into their pit

final chorus
yeah, i’ll take the devil i know
eyes open, standing tall
i’ve lost too much to blind faith
i won’t lose myself at all
if survival makes me dangerous
so be it—i’ve grown
i didn’t make it out alive
by trusting the devil i don’t know
