MENTALLY SCORN lyrics : "The Devil's Manipulation"

:I aint neva sellin my soul to this rap game. For real though. Like these !@$)got $$# rappers doing satan's preaching, $#&@ you. You do it for the money. And now look whats happening to the world. (verse 1) There was a man named Jamar. Earlier in the day, he got hit by a car. Hes alright, but now hes chillin at the bar. His life has been %#@! up till now so far. He asks for a drink, an hour later, hes throwin up in the sink. Hes about to snap, hes on the brink. His mom just passed away the other day, and his father developed cancer today. He has a wife, and two kids. But theyre getting evicted next week. This %#@!s looking real bleak, and Jamar's feeling real weak. Just then, he hears a mans voice start to speak. "Yo, I heard you rappin the other day on the street. That %#@! was sweet. Come with me if you wanna talk cash, and we can talk over a nice meal, it'll be my treat." So Jamar goes with this fellow to a fancy restaurant, he takes a seat. He notices the man has a holster on his waist, hes packin the heat. The man offers Jamar a record deal. Jamar cant believe it, this %#@! doesnt seem real. There's just one thing the man didnt tell Jamar, the part about the devil's seal. Jamar gladly takes the label. This cant be happening, its like a fairytale, a fable. Jamar is so excited he almost flips over the table. Now that he can make some cash, his family no longer has to pick from the trash.
(refrain) The devil reaches out, he tells me he can show me what lifes really all about. He says he'll grant me my desires, if I agree to become one of his sires. All my dreams and more, money, women galore. All I have to do is take a step through that door. It seems all I can ever want is on the other side, all I have to do is enter the devil's ride. I waste no time to think, I flatly refuse. I dont give a $#&@ about the fortune, fame, money, cars, new shoes. I fight for God, and I refuse to lose.
(verse 2) Jamar took the liberty to buy himself a new car, hes recorded 2 mixtapes so far. Hes happy he met that stranger at the bar. Hes well off enough to support his wife, to give his kids a life. If He can just stay in this position for another year, then his family no longer has to live in fear. But Jamar gets offered another deal. That same man who hooked him ups like, "You can become famous and rich as hell, ya feel?" Jamar can turn and walk, but he continues to listen to the man talk. Sure enough, Jamar takes the bait. He thinks God must be looking down on him, this has to be fate. How can his life suddenly be going so great? Now he can do more than just put food on the plate, his lifes like a blank slate. Happy and without a care, Jamar walks right into Satan's trap, blissfully unaware.

(refrain)
(verse 3) So Jamar writes a new song. It so good, you cant resist rapping along. He submits his lyrics and in a few days gets them back, but somethings wrong. These lines werent in my song. He talks to that man to complain. But the man raises his hand in a motion that says, your talking, refrain. The man tells Jamar, "This was in the contract, youre not allowed to react. But I promise you'll get paid, and after its released, you'll get laid." Jamar says whatever, at least hes makin it good. After all, his family's movin out of the hood. So he records himself as he spits to the beat. The changes in the lyrics were subtle, almost discreet. And Jamar feels like hes achieved quite a feat. Jamar doesnt even realize that hes preaching the devil's word. He doesnt really care, as long as his music is heard. And so the corruption of future generations is ensured. You see the Devil will always get his way, he always finds new gullible players to play. And it will continue on this way till judgment day. You see, were all involved in the devils game, and youre unknowingly inscribing on your foreheard lucifer's name.
(refrain)
