Z-Ro, Ronetta Spencer, Ronnie Spencer - Devil in Me lyrics

If I would've signed that contract
I'd be richer than rich
But when they say that I'd have to
Die face down in that ditch
Everybody wanna try to bring out
The devil in me
What keeps my soul at ease, is G-O-D
If I attended that ceremony I'd be better off
Find myself a celebrity
But I'd be forever lost
Everybody wanna try to bring out
The devil in me
What keeps my soul at ease, is G-O-D

What good is it for me to gain
The world but yet lose my soul
I would have been a millionaire
Since 20 years old
I wouldn't have had to pay for
All of these diamonds and gold
Just sacrifice one of my people
I ain't really know they say hell is a party
That's right under the floor
And even if I live righteous
That's where I gotta go sign this contract
And my savior won't know me no more
But while I'm living I'm a king
And I'm rolling in dough
Blood in, blood out, that's the rule
Royal penis is clean
I don't even tie my shoe
I wouldn't even get to see
None of my hoover blues
No more Mo City for me
I'd be kicking it with the Jews
It would feel like I'm winning
But in the end I would lose
Keep rolling with G-O-D
My salvation is what I choose
And even though they don't know
Me everywhere they should
I'm blessed and I'm satisfied I made
It out of my hood

If I would've signed that contract
I'd be richer than rich
But when they say that I'd have to
Die face down in that ditch
Everybody wanna try to bring out
The devil in me
What keeps my soul at ease, is G-O-D
If I attended that ceremony I'd be better off
Find myself a celebrity
But I'd be forever lost
Everybody wanna try to bring out
The devil in me
What keeps my soul at ease, is G-O-D

Grandma Dorothy would probably turn
Over in her grave
If she thought I did something that
Would keep me from being saved
She said "Grandson
The lord going to be with
You all of your days
Long as you don't start tripping and
Stop giving him his praise"
But, I wanna live in a mansion
And travel in private planes
I'd be rich messing with Satan
With God I got pocket change
Would've been rich a long time ago
Doing all type of big things
Probably would've died a long time ago too
Being thankful is what I'm gonna do
Never was easy
Was always hard I'm thankful for
What I go through
You know me but if you don't know
God I can't say I know you
I need to work on my temper, Lord
I be going off it been 20 years
I'm still in this game like I know I lost
They don't mess with me like
They mess with Jeezy, Luda, and Ross
But, it's all good though
I keep doing my thing I am a boss
Even though they don't know
Me everywhere they should
I'm blessed and I'm satisfied I made
It out of my hood

If I would've signed that contract
I'd be richer than rich
But when they say that I'd have to
Die face down in that ditch
Everybody wanna try to bring out
The devil in me
What keeps my soul at ease, is G-O-D
If I attended that ceremony I'd be better off
Find myself a celebrity
But I'd be forever lost
Everybody wanna try to bring out
The devil in me
What keeps my soul at ease, is G-O-D

But, I ain't everybody, I just wanna be me
Making my own destiny in this industry
Hella ways just to get paid
And all good money
All I'd rather the fortune and fame
The way God planned for me
