Lyrics

verse 1
story bout a kid used to be a go getter
spittin out fire taht could dry up the winter
cook up his beats like he cook up his dinner
devil got inside, got stuck like a splinter

now he broke down this gold mic winna
turned a great kid to a cold hard sinna
 got in and distorted the whole picture
got gods kid to turn on the whole scripture

alsways heard the words the devil out to get cha
never believed god woldent come and direct ya
but devil creeped in like a volent home wrecka
 got you before anyone could correct ya

got way off track now almost deserted
he guessed that it was his fault, maybe he deserved it
but guess that its time to just live and learn it
but what the devil stole cannot be returned 

chorus
what the world stole from me neva got it back
im on the concrete layin on my back
what the world stole from me cant be replaced
what did they take well they took my faith

what the world stole from me neva got it back
layin on down no time to react
cuz what the world stole from me neva got it back
neva got it back
neva got it back

verse 2
tried to move on with the devil in position
tried to live for god but was lost in division
devil had created doubt that was conditioned
kid lost faith cuz the lie was convincin

his rhymes never ceased he had stayed commited
but deep inside his heart was less driven
devil knew he was winning in his mission
 soul was destroryed in this mind heart collision

soon he was lost in a depressional prison
but he never quit never fell to submission
this was a fight, never give never quitten
he was held down but hs feet just kept kickin

but he got way off track almost deserted
guessed it was his fault maybe he deserved it
but guess that its time to just live and learn it
but what the devil stole from him cant be returned

chorus

verse 3
even to this day he just keeps on fightin
thankfull every day another day he survived it
lookin for his faith cuz he cant seem to find it
and when he does he is looking to refine it

moving on without it feels like hes dyin
 expresses his words with a pen as he writes it
 tired of spending these endless nights cryin
screaming for a god he can one day confide in

 devil heres a challenge i hope you done hidin
in the depths of his mind where your confinein
this kids power keeps on multiplyin
 soon will be the day where you realize it

he was once off track and almost deserted
he knows it your fault, youll get what you deserve and
its about done your just about to learn
thats hes about to take back what couldnt be returned
