[Refrain]
You done pulled✦ the demon✦ out the man, pulled✦ the demon✦ out the pants
Put the demon✦ in your mouth then pulled✦ it clean up out your ass
Took her demon✦ by the hands, asked✦ the demon,✦ "Can we dance?"
Found a halo✦ in her trash but she don't talk about✦ her past
[Bridge 2]
A demon✦ with demands✦
A demon✦ with demands✦
A demon✦ with demands✦
A demon✦ with demands✦
[Chorus 2]
A demon✦ with demands,✦ a demon✦ with demands✦ (A demon✦ with demands)✦
I'm a demon✦ with demands,✦ I got demons✦ on demand✦ (A demon✦ with demands)✦
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm a demon✦ by demand✦ too
Yeah, brought the demon✦ out the man, ooh
She agree to my demands✦ too (Follow✦ through)
You done brought the demon✦ out the man, ooh
Brought the demon✦ out her ass too
[Verse]
Sleepin'✦ with the enemy,✦ my demons✦ are too intimate
She's sleepin'✦ very✦ gently,✦ so now they're startin'✦ to enter✦ it
And now they're startin'✦ to mentor me, geekin'✦ like Brittany
Tweakin' my energy,✦ eat and die sympathy
Scream and cry infamy,✦ come alive✦ mentally✦
And love die physically,✦ my love cry miserably
Hugs gettin'✦ looser,✦ her tongue tied, kissin'✦ me
She fucked✦ thy niggas, see, now they both iggin'✦ me
But demons✦ got dignity, demons✦ got memories
I had a lil' revenge in me, so now I'm at sentencin'
'Bout to stop gigglin' and dinner✦ start sizzlin'
[Bridge 3]

Critic Analysis
RAPLEDGER BAROMETER™

Wayne relies on high-density multisyllabic rhyme chains and assonance-heavy internal patterns to compensate for a cyclical, mantra-like lyrical structure that favors sonic texture over complex narrative depth.

Rhyme Architecture: The verse utilizes a complex AAAAAA mono-rhyme scheme based on the 'ent-uh-ee' phonetic cluster, driving a high-velocity, locked-in internal flow that maintains rhythmic consistency.
Verified Doubles & Entendres

"my demons are too intimate / She's sleepin' very gently, so now they're startin' to enter it"

① The physical act of demons entering or possessing the partner during sleep.② A sexual double entendre referencing intimate physical contact facilitated by the partner's vulnerable state.

"geekin' like Brittany"

① A pop culture reference to the erratic, high-energy behavior often associated with Britney Spears in media cycles.② A play on 'geekin'' as a slang term for being under the influence or experiencing a manic episode.

Exceptional technical mastery of multisyllabic rhyming

High-energy delivery that maintains the pocket through complex phonetic layering

Atmospheric and claustrophobic tone

Lyrical content leans into repetitive themes

Wordplay is occasionally subservient to the phonetic requirement of the rhyme scheme

Lacks traditional narrative progression or high-impact punchline resolution
