The Devil was at my doorstep
Telling me I'm through
I wouldn't be here to tell the tale
If it hadn't been for you
You wouldn't believe what I've been through
Fourteen years of hell
Nowhere to live no one to love
And nobody to tell
On the street since I remember
The attitude was swole
Every fix every trick every jip every hit
And I let it take my soul
Today was the day to end it
And meet my maker too
Ask him why he made me suffer
All my young life through
I thought I'd had the whole thing planned
Was gonna end it all that day
And then this cat just talked me down
In such a beautiful way
So one day I'll get to heaven
And get to talk to the man
I'll tell him I met you brother
And how my whole new life began
I'm staring at the concrete
Standin' on the ledge
And then I hear this languid voice
And it's not inside my head
I turned my head and saw him
I'd seen his face before
They took away his title
'Cos he wouldn't fight that war
And then he started talkin'
Real soft and kind
He spoke like he really knew me
He lifted the hood of my mind
He said he knew where I'd been
Cos he'd already been there
Everything all darkness and sin
And nothin' but cold despair
I thought I'd had the whole thing planned
Was gonna end it all that day
And then this cat just talked me down
In such a beautiful way
So one day I'll get to heaven
And get to talk to the man
I'll tell him I met you brother
And how my whole new life began
I thought I'd had the whole thing planned
Was gonna end it all that day
And then this cat just talked me down
In such a beautiful way
So one day I'll get to heaven
And get to talk to the man
I'll tell him I met you brother
And how my whole new life began
I was outside nine stories high
Really getting ready to fly
Take a trip to the infinite
And don't bother asking why
He said 'give me your hand and your heart
And kid I'll show you a better way
The devil is at your doorstep
But we're not at home today
He said 'give me your hand and your heart
And kid I'll show you a better way
The devil is at your doorstep
But we're not at home today

The Devil was at my doorstep
Telling me I'm through
I wouldn't be here to tell the tale
If it hadn't been for you
You wouldn't believe what I've been through
Fourteen years of hell

Every fix every trick every jip every hit
And I let it take my soul
Today was the day to end it
And meet my maker too
Ask him why he made me suffer
All my young life through
I thought I'd had the whole thing planned
Was gonna end it all that day
And then this cat just talked me down
In such a beautiful way
So one day I'll get to heaven
And get to talk to the man
I'll tell him I met you brother
And how my whole new life began
