I'm Not the Devil

I'm not the devil you think that I am

It ain't no excuse, but I'm just a man

I slipped and I fell, it got outta hand

But I'm not the devil you think that I am

It wasn't no gun they held to my head

I got caught up believing in lies that were said

And in a moment of weakness

I stumbled and I made my bed

I'm not the devil you think that I am

It ain't no excuse, but I'm just a man

I slipped and I fell, it got outta hand

But I'm not the devil you think that I am

[Instrumental bridge]

There's 10,000 reasons for you not to stay

And no one would blame you

If you want it that way

It might take some time

But I'll show you that I'm worth the wait

I'm not the devil you think that I am

It ain't no excuse, but I'm just a man

I slipped and I fell, it got outta hand

But I'm not the devil you think that I am

And I'll spend forever, do all that I can

To prove I'm not the devil you think that I am

And I'm not the devil
