you don't go to the devil's house to play
you're either geared up for war
or you're there to strike a bargain
you're either prepared for life or you're gonna submit to it to toss you back and forth as it likes.
bottom line is you just gotta pay your dues.
put in the work,
get something out of it
an even if you loose
at least you tried
and you're not the same person as when you started.
