Deal with the Devil

You are in trouble and in need.

The God you pray too, doesn’t give.

Struggling through dirt, only to succeed.

But is this the life you wished to live?

Hi, I am the devil.

Here to help with no evil.

Like a genie to grant you a wish.

Problems gone with a swish.

Here’s a contract for you to sign.

Write your name above the line.

Then shake my hand to finalize.

Breach of contract, you’ll be penalize.

No need to be afraid.

I am here to give you aid.

But you are mine until the debt is paid.

Because of the deal we made.

Your life became easy.

Everything became happy.

It is only temporary.

Then came the agony.

Are you willing to sell,

Your soul to hell?

You wanted more to make a new deal.

To live a happy life that isn’t real.

You sold everything,

Consumed by greed.

You became nothing,

But still in need.

There is no escaping the deal you made.

I can say that you’ve been played.

By this devil who gave aid.

Now you can be afraid.
