The Devil Slips Through Small Cracks
©Schantell Wharton

(Verse 1)
Woke up this mornin', sun peekin' through the blinds
Head poundin' like a drum, another restless night I find
Shoulders tense, jaw clenched tight, gotta face the day's demands
People all around me, stress drippin' from their hands

(Pre-Chorus)
Deadlines loom, bills pile high, feels like I'm drowning slow
Just wanna scream and shout, let all this tension go

(Chorus)
But I try to stay calm, gotta keep it all inside
People get on my nerves, they nit pic about petty things
Don't they see the cracks are widenin', the pressure's startin' to sting?
The devil slips through small cracks, and I fear what darkness he'll bring

(Verse 2)
Walkin' down the street, another shove, another rude remark
Anger boils beneath the surface, a spark waiting to spark
Little things that used to roll off, now feel like a punch to the gut
Patience wearin' thin, feelin' like I might just erupt

(Pre-Chorus)
Car horns blare, the world's a mess, negativity takes hold
Just wanna break free, let the anger take control

(Chorus)
But I try to stay calm, gotta keep it all inside
People get on my nerves, they nit pic about petty things
Don't they see the cracks are widenin', the pressure's startin' to sting?
The devil slips through small cracks, and I fear what darkness he'll bring

(Bridge)
Find a way to mend these cracks, before they swallow me whole
Learn to breathe, break free, take back control

(Chorus)
'Cause I can't stay calm, the pressure's takin' its toll
People get on my nerves, but I won't let them take control
Gotta seal those cracks before they widen, gotta fight for my soul
The devil won't slip through here no more, I'm takin' back what's whole
