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.
