Forgive The Devil

from Puzzle by millicow

lyrics

The fact that I am in these shoes
Implies that this is the life I chose
So why would I wish it to be different
When no existence is coincidental?

If I live with this hate, then they win at their game
When I let them give anger they take power away
If I live with this hate, then they win at their game
When I let them give anger they take power away

Pushing up against the wall. How do you forgive the devil?
I don't want to be okay with living in a world of evil
I don't want to make my peace, not until the crime is over
I want to see them punished. I want to watch them suffer
I can't keep living with this hate; I can't let them make me angry
But I can't just be okay with what happens every day
Hell is not another place. Hell is right in front of your face
I want it gone; it's too much pain. How can you say it's why we came?

If I live with this hate, then they win at their game
When I let them give anger they take power away
How can I accept that we come here to experience pain?
And happiness before death is not for all to attain?

Was it all by design ultimately in god's perfect mind?
Was it all as intended or only the meaning we give it?
Maybe it just simply is until we turn it to a curse
Or accept it as a lesson make it perfect in our minds
Is it all up to us to perceive it as such?
God forgets through us but leaves a trail of crumbs
But why the pain? Did it really go wrong?
Is there such thing as wrong? Is this just the curriculum?
Is it all up to us to perceive it as such?
Is there anything to it except the meaning we give it?
Was it all as intended? Was it all in the vision?
How many gods are thought forms and how many are much more?
Does the devil have a soul, only here to play a role?
Do they understand at all that you can't escape the rules?
When their karma must unfold, will they live through every life?
Is the devil you and I, and we only hurt ourselves?
Could we be here to feel the beating because we're the people who did it?
And deep down there is no time, and deep down our souls combine
And deep down it's all a dream, swimming in infinity
And right now we are divine; this is all inside god's mind

If I live with this hate, then they win at their game
Please god don't let me let them take my happiness away
If I live with this hate, then they win at their game
Please god don't let me let them take my happiness away
Please god don't let me let them take my happiness away

about

millicow Kansas City, Missouri

love.

A style all of its own, inspired by rap, hip hop, synthwave, classical music, heavy metal, black metal, synthpop, and more.

Packed full of finely crafted sounds, textures, melodies, rhythms, harmonies, and conscious, insightful poetry, I translate spirit into sounds that aim to induce states of psychedelic trance and emotional catharsis.
