Pretty straightforward.
[Verse 1]
AmI'm the son of a man, who was the child of the Devil's tongue
AmI can't look at my reflection and not think of the deeds he done
FDon't gotta know how to live
FTo be afraid to die. If you don't
Amwanna see that sunset, stop looking in a demon's eye
[Interlude]
Am F Am F
Am G F F
[Verse 2]
AmBut now he's dead and gone and I refuse to become his ghost
AmI don't wanna live anymore but I can't be in Satan's host
FAnd I don't need no doctor,

I'm the son of a man, who was the child of the Devil's tongue

I don't need no revelation do on take my body down the Galilee
