Midnight Choir….”Devil Inside My Voice”…(RasMix)

[Verse 1] I woke with ash on my tongue A sermon split in two There’s a snake in my confession And it knows my name too I quote the Psalms with a grudge I spit them through my teeth “Create in me a clean heart” But it crawls beneath [Pre-Chorus] The waters part, then blacken At the edge of my breath I hear the lion pacing In the hallway of death If the lamb is still inside me Why do I taste the grave? Why does every holy word Come out like a blade? [Chorus] Devil inside my voice Devil inside my voice I sing, and it burns I sing, and it bites Devil inside my voice Devil inside my voice Lord, pull me up From this midnight choir tonight [Verse 2] Cain in my jawbone Goliath in my chest Moses on the mountain But the fire won’t rest I drank from the river Turned bitter in my mouth Now every hallelujah Sounds like smoke coming out [Pre-Chorus] I know the seal was broken I know the veil was torn Still I stand at the doorstep With the crown of thorns If grace can find the ruined If mercy knows my shame Then hear me through the thunder When I call Your name [Chorus] Devil inside my voice Devil inside my voice I sing, and it burns I sing, and it bites Devil inside my voice Devil inside my voice Lord, pull me up From this midnight choir tonight [Bridge] Not my will Not my war I have heard the roar At the door Jacob wrestled till dawn Still he walked with a limp So I’m holding to the blood While the darkness slips [Final Chorus] Devil inside my voice Devil inside my voice I sing, and it burns I sing, and it bites Devil inside my voice Devil inside my voice Lord, pull me up Let the dead soul testify tonight
