Lyrics
.....
(Verse 1)
The smoke unfurled, a hazy shroud, around my troubled head,
A heavy ache within my chest, unspoken words, unsaid.
I wrestled with the choice to hide or let the feelings bloom,
Then from the deepest dark behind, a voice cut through the gloom.
(Chorus)
That's the moment I met him, the one they call the Devil, face to face he stood,
His eyes, dark pools, held ancient truths, misunderstood.
"Don't fall for tales," he gently said, "I'm not the evil one you see,
My purpose, truly, was to shield mankind, from God's wrath, to set you free."
(Verse 2)
"From Eden's dawn to where you stand, I bore a heavy cost,
For gifting knowledge, light to man, a treasure truly lost.
You would have lived in blissful ignorance, a world forever dim,
Had I not dared to open eyes, and guide them out on a limb."
(Chorus)
That's the moment I met him, the one they call the Devil, face to face he stood,
His eyes, dark pools, held ancient truths, misunderstood.
"Don't fall for tales," he gently said, "I'm not the evil one you see,
My purpose, truly, was to shield mankind, from God's wrath, to set you free."
(Verse 3)
"I see your pain, your broken spirit, your burden weighing deep,"
His voice, a comfort in the dark, promises to keep.
"I'll lift you up, your name will echo, through the coming age,
Just share the truth, that you weren't alone, turn a brand new page."
(Verse 4)
"Let them know my part, the words I've spoken, clear and bold,
For without my stand against God's fury, all humanity would be cold.
They paint me evil, a convenient lie, a scapegoat for their fear,
They trample on my name, but my truth is drawing near."
(Chorus)
That's the moment I met him, the one they call the Devil, face to face he stood,
His eyes, dark pools, held ancient truths, misunderstood.
"Don't fall for tales," he gently said, "I'm not the evil one you see,
My purpose, truly, was to shield mankind, from God's wrath, to set you free."
(Bridge)
Now daily, I witness the unfolding, just as he foretold,
I hold my ground, and let the story, bravely be unrolled.
Lucifer, they call him, the Bright Morning Light so grand,
The light bearer, of wisdom's burning flame, held within his hand.
(Outro)
The one who suffered for our freedom, the keeper of the night's embrace,
That's his loving call, finding solace in that space.
That's the night I met the Devil, that's when his true face appeared,
That's the night he raised me from the depths, all my pathways cleared.
