"Devil's Land" lyrics

"Devil's Land"

Father, who is this man?
Father, said he's here to take my land
Half of my whole life
Trying to keep my head above water
Look of this man
Lord he's here for my slaughter
But I won't have to feel no pain
If I don't wait for tomorrow

I met the devil this morning
He came knocking at my front door
He had a bible in his left hand
Asked me what my life was worth living for
I'm just a honest man
Trying to live off my land
Keep on feeding my family
Look at this man
Trying to take it from me

I met the devil this morning
He came knocking at my front door
He had a bible in his left hand
Asked me what my life was worth living for
I'm just a honest man
Trying to live off my land
Keep on feeding my family
Look at this man
Trying to take it from me
