    Default "Old Nick At The Front Door"

    Well I woke up this morning
    And it was yesterday again... again
    It was raining, yeah, it was pouring
    Got a cup of coffee and my day began

    There was a knock at the door
    Looked through the peephole out
    Somebody I've never seen before
    In suit and tie with a cigar in his mouth

    I opened the door a crack
    And asked him who he was
    This is the part where you'll laugh
    Yeah, you will laugh because...

    He said... I am the devil
    Though I've been called by many names
    I am the world's oldest rebel
    In the world I'm the cause of any major change
    Call me Old Nick, Lucifer, Satan
    Or just call me Mr. Jingles if you would like
    I'm here because I've been waiting
    Patiently to collect what's mine at the end of your life
    See you died and you just don't know it
    Because you've been stuck in this purgatory cycle
    But your soul is mine, yes, you owe it
    Ya owe it to me son, I wouldn't lie, I swear on the bible

    That's when I turned to flee
    But claws dug into my shoulder
    He wouldn't let me leave
    How I wish I wasn't sober

    I spit and curse in his face
    But he just stood there grinning
    He said, I knew you'd fall from grace
    I knew it from the beginning

    I shook my head violently
    Said I still don't understand
    Then I whispered silently
    Will you please explain it again?

    He said... I am the devil
    Though I've been called by many names
    I am the world's oldest rebel
    In the world I'm the cause of any major change
    Call me Old Nick, Lucifer, Satan
    Or just call me Mr. Jingles if you would like
    I'm here because I've been waiting
    Patiently to collect what's mine at the end of your life
    See you died and you just don't know it
    Because you've been stuck in this purgatory cycle
    But your soul is mine, yes, you owe it
    Ya owe it to me son, I wouldn't lie, I swear on the bible

    Now come with me
    It's not that bad, you can trust me
    Now come with me
    Take my hand, stop your struggling

    I wouldn't lie
    I swear on the bible

    Like the expressions and theme, but hard to gauge what the flow would be for it. Might just be me but the song structure is a bit strange too me, the hook/chorus is rather large, more so than i think I have ever seen.

    Yeah, it's not meant to be rap. All of my rap is in the battle rap section.
