The Devil In I is a 2014 song and music video by American nu-metal band Slipknot produced by Greg Fidelman and the band themselves. The song is the second single taken from 5: The Gray Chapter, a Roadrunner Records release.
Reviews:
“chugs out of a warbling doom line at the beginning and sets itself onto a morose but tuneful course with moody guitar chimes, dirge-loaded bass and empathetic swills from Corey Taylor … The choruses are a little too safe, but a massive and quick-stepped breakdown plus a grinding bridge thereafter keeps the song robust and hectic.” Blabbermouth.net
Lyrics:
Undo these chains my friend
I’ll show you the rage i’ve hidden
Perish the sacrament
Swallow, but nothing forgiven
You and I can’t decide which of us was taken for granted
Make amends
Some of us are destined to be outlived
Step inside, see the devil in I
Too many times, we’ve let it come to this
Step inside, see the devil in I
You’ll realize i’m not your devil anymore
Under the words of men
Something is tempting the father
Where is your will my, friend?
Insatiates never even bother
You and I, wrong or right
Traded a lie for the leverage
In between the lens in light
You’re not what you seem
Step inside, see the devil in I
Too many times, we’ve let it come to this
Step inside, see the devil in I
You’ll realize i’m not your devil
I’m not your devil anymore
Your station is abandoned
Fool you ’cause I know what you’ve done
Sensation depravation
You should’ve burned when you turned on everyone
