Woke on the left side of the bed
Today that still won’t go away
And although I’m shamed of this
New world I’ll do another day
A kid gave me his soul today
And I took it to the man to pay
My part of the deal we made
But it still won’t go away
Take it

They try to take the light so I can’t see
They try to take the clothes off of me
They try to take the air that I breathe
They try to go and fill me with disease
They try and take my soul
Take it
Got my marie laveau gri gri

Even that ain't saving me from ultimate destiny
I guess God wasn’t impressed with me
Cause only devil comes around
Around here anyway downtown
When you’re born inside a hole
You’re already off in the ground
Take it

They try to take the light so I can’t see
They try to take the clothes off of me
They try to take the air that I breathe
They try to go and fill me with disease
They try and take my soul
