Friendly Devil

friendly friend
Our closest best
The devil is a friend to all in his circle of influence
The Ghost mood of daemon
He lives with us everyday but pretends he's far away
His light shines beyond his mask
We call for him from our desires and he responds here I am
He's the sleeping dog that lies in perturbed
He smiles within us and craves his abode around us
We may not see him but he knows us
He decides for us unconsciously
And gives us his will evenly
Much fun lies in what he gives
But destruction speaks in solitudes
Oh daemon

Oh devil

What on earth are you here for?

To kill, steal and destroy, but am confused why Man has yielded so much to your Cozen vibes

You make us feel God is  far away 

You make us feel guilt when we sin

You make men please you and displease God

You make us hate ourselves and leave Us to our own interest.

You cloud our imagination and seek to limit our minds about ourselves

Oh devil

Oh daemon

Much will I say about you.

The greatest he can steal is Gods word in me

He's confused when we speak the word

He runs mad when we speak in heavenly tongues

Holiness is a no go area for him

So why see him as though he has outright power over you?

If you can 

Resist him

Denounce him

Know more about him

He's just like an ocean without Waters

I know you know me

And am glad I have known you

Now I have dominion over you

I am completely free, from the den of slavery

The light has shone on my path

My past is over me now.
