Evil

Hear no evil see no evil speak no evil
Those were the words that played over and over in my mind
Since birth they  have been embedded in my head
If it wasn’t for  the words I’d probably be dead
They kept me from go insane
All the evil things were erased from my brain
It wasn’t out of fear but for survival
I’ve been to hell and back with out a scratch
The devil always being my biggest rival
I beat the devil at his own game by refusing evil
If I cant hear see it or speak then it does not exist
And something that does not exist has no power over you
