Devil I've Been Lyrics

by Post Malone

What's the song about?

...

She tried to hide them wings under that Double RL
Well, she might be an angel, that′s what I'm tellin′ myself
And she knows I'm a demon, she heard 'bout all my songs
Saint Hank up on the wall, that man done seen it all

Thank God there′s still salvation
For a guy like me who still needs savin′

So, I hung my horns on the wall soon as she walked in
Been in here gettin' half gone with all my hell-bound friends
Yeah, I′m about tired of livin' this life of sin
Girl, I′m one hell of a night, yeah, but I ain't the devil I′ve been

Ain't the devil, ain't the devil, ain′t the devil I′ve been
Ain't the devil I′ve been
Ain't the devil, ain′t the devil, ain't the devil I′ve been

Oh, I've been around the world twice, one foot from six feet deep
I got some burns from a flame I thought could never get me
And wouldn't you know, she fell right through the roof of the bar where I′m in
Yeah, and pulled up a stool

Thank God there′s still salvation
For a guy like me who still needs savin'

So I hung my horns on the wall soon as she walked in
Been in here gettin′ half gone with all my hell-bound friends
Yeah, I'm about tired of livin′ this life of sin
Girl, I'm one hell of a night, yeah, but I ain′t the devil I've been

Ain't the devil, ain′t the devil, ain′t the devil I've been
Oh, the devil I′ve been
Ain't the devil, ain′t the devil, ain't the devil I′ve been

Oh, I ain't the flame I used to be
Yeah, it's funny how a cage can make a man feel so free, oh

So I hung my horns on the wall soon as she walked in
Been in here gettin′ half gone with all my hell-bound friends (hell-bound friends)
Yeah, I′m about tired of livin' this life of sin
Girl, I′m one hell of a night, yeah, but I ain't the devil I′ve been

Ain't the devil, ain′t the devil, ain't the devil I've been
Oh, ain′t the devil I′ve been
Ain't the devil, ain′t the devil, ain't the devil I′ve been
Oh, ain't the devil I′ve been
Ain't the devil, ain't the devil, ain′t the devil I′ve been
Oh, ain't the devil I′ve been
Ain't the devil, ain′t the devil, ain't the devil I′ve been
I ain't the devil I've been
