Raindog - Spawn of the devil

You say that I'm the serpent that will swallow the world
You the knight who mounts his white horse wielding shield and sword
I am the rotten fruit of a poisonous tree
I am the chain that keeps you bound when you wanna be free
You try to leverage my shame
Then you say I don't have any
I can assure you my dear
That's the one thing i don't lack
And though I'm trying to be better
I'm never as good as you wanted
So why should I keep trying if you decided that I
Am the spawn of the devil
That's who you said I am
I am arrogant and greedy and I don't understand
What it means to be like you when the whole world is like me
I'm the spawn of the devil that's me
You say that I'm the siren that will lure you in
I'm gonna eat your heart I'm gonna wear your skin
I'm gonna watch you drown and kiss you while you sink
Until you're just a shapeless shadow wrapped in faded ink
You try to leverage my shame
Then you say i don't have any
I can assure you my dear
That's the one thing i don't lack
And though I'm trying to be better
I'm never as good as you wanted
So why should I keep trying if you decided that I
Am the spawn of the devil
That s who you said I am
I am arrogant and greedy and I don't understand
What it means to be like you when the whole world is like me
I'm the spawn of the devil, the spawn of the devil
Mama I'm so sorry for being like this
I would never ever wanna have a child like me
This self loathing is something I got for free
It's just not obvious enough for you to see
I'm the spawn of the devil
That s who you said I am
I am arrogant and greedy and I don't understand
