"Speak Of The Devil" lyrics
"Speak Of The Devil"
I wish I met my grandma when she
Was my age, was my age, was my age
I would've taught her and her daughter
Not to hate, not to hate, not to hate
Not to fear what they don't know
Long before they know me
As I am, as I am, as I am
Now all that they see is their baby
Shaking hands, shaking hands with the Devil
Speak of the Devil, she
Just now messaged me
She said she misses me
And hopes I'm doing fine
Don't wanna change your heart
Just wanna change your mind
That's why I wish I knew my grandpa
When he was a kid, just a kid, just a kid
He would've loved RuPaul and Frog and Toad
Hell, he might've even read a book or two or three
Or four about Stonewall
I'd have said "ally"
Then we would laugh and dance
And skip into the sunset
Instead, all they see is their baby
Sinning left and right
At best, they see a space cadet
I don't know how to say it any other way
I love my family and I hope they're doing fine
Don't wanna change your heart
Just wanna change your mind
About queer people

And everybody was impressed
But I didn't need approval because I already knew I was the best
Everything I made was a masterpiece
It all taste like heaven

It's been a long long time

Write your name
The initiator can't complain
Hit me like a heatwave
Giving me a migraine
Lipstick on the paper
Write your name
