Playing with the Devil Lyrics by Skindred

Kill the Power

0

As poor as you may be
The only one you're hurting is your family
Robbing yourself, it makes no sense
You steal a million but then end up with pence..

'Cause the devil dances in empty pockets
And you're never gonna win by firing rockets
Hear me when I say

So much chaos in these streets, you see that
From the heat there's no retreat, you know that
To the less you only beat, you hear that?
You can't handle no defeat..

But the devil dances in empty pockets
And you're never gonna win by firing rockets
Hear me when I say

Oh, we don't need that no
Oh, we don't need that

Because you're playing with the devil
Causing lightning and thunder
Playing with the devil
Causing lightning and thunder

Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this firewood
Tell him that we're coming through(x3)
Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this firewood
Rise and take over

I smell that plastic burning
Sobered from burning plastic
I smell that plastic burning
Sobered from burning plastic

Playing with the devil, ya gonna get burned!

Because you're playing with the devil
Causing lightning and thunder
Playing with the devil
Causing lightning and thunder

Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this firewood
Tell him that we're coming through(x3)
Oh, here's what we gotta do is move this firewood
Rise and take over
