In this soulful track, the artist explores themes of rebellion, defiance and personal struggle. The recurring phrase "where the devil don't go" symbolizes a place of solitude or self-imposed exile where she seeks refuge from societal expectations and norms. The song's protagonist is depicted as a non-conformist who finds no solace in religion or conventional morality, instead finding liberation with 'Lucifer,' a metaphor for embracing one's darker side or outcast status. Her refusal to 'repent' until judgement day suggests a determination to live life on her own terms, despite the judgement or condemnation of others. Overall, the song is an anthem for those who feel marginalized or misunderstood, encouraging them to embrace their individuality and find strength in their unique journey.
Where the Devil Don't Go
Lyrics
Cast me down where the devil don't go
Devil don't go where I make my home
Cast me down where the devil don't go
Devil don't go where I make my home
Drown my woes in a lake of fire
Sing a song gonna take me higher
Drown my woes in a lake of fire
Sing a song gonna take me higher
Good lord turned his back on me
Lucifer gonna set me free
Good lord turned his back on me
Lucifer gonna set me free
It's a mean world that I've known
Never got no good doing what I'm told
It's a mean world that I've known
Now you'll find me where the devil don't go
Where the devil don't go
Preacher man won't cut no slack
Called my demons but gave them back
Preacher man won't cut no slack
Called my demons but gave them back
Bruised my knees getting down to pray
Won't repent 'til my judgement day
Bruised my knees getting down to pray
Won't repent 'til my judgement day
It's a mean world that I've known
Never got no good doing what I'm told
It's a mean world that I've known
Now you'll find me where the devil don't go
Where the devil don't go
Cast me down where the devil don't go
Devil don't go where I make my home
Cast me down where the devil don't go
Devil don't go where I make my home
It's a mean world that I've known
Never got no good doing what I'm told
It's a mean world that I've known
Now you'll find me where the devil don't go
It's a mean world that I've known
Never got no good doing what I'm told
It's a mean world that I've known
Now you'll find me where the devil don't go
Where the devil don't go
Cast me down where the devil don't go
Devil don't go where I make my home
Cast me down where the devil don't go
Devil don't go where I make my home
