I destroy people, tear families apart
I take away the children and break everyone's heart
I cost more than diamonds, glitter more than gold
My temptations put before you are a sight to behold
I seduce the rich and lie to the poor
I reside down the street and even next door
I'm very common, nothing special you see
For eons of time, fools have been following me
My powers are awesome, try me and see
But if you ever do, it's hard to break free
I take kids from parents and parents from them
I turn people from God 'til they can't understand
I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride
But I'll stay with you, right there by your side
I'll take from you 'til there is nothing to give
When I'm finished with you, you'll be lucky to live
Nightmares I'll give you while there in your bed
My voice you'll hear, right there in your head
The sweats and the fear, the visions you'll see
I want you to know are all gifts from me
You'll regret that you found me, they all say they do
But you searched for me, I wasn't looking for you
You know this is wrong because you were told
You challenged my powers just trying to be bold
You could have said 'no' to me and chose Jesus that day
If you were tempted again, what would you say?
Now I'm your master and you are my slave
I'll be tempting others when you're in your grave
Now that you chose me, what will you do?
Is this what you want? It's still up to you
I will bring you suffering that words cannot tell
You'll be lusting for me while I lead you to HELL
