“Lucifer” is XOV’s way to cope with a terrible situation he was in. He got ripped off, was homeless, broke and had to live in a friend’s cabin.
According to Damian Ardestani (XOV) the lyrics from the EP are all true stories from his former life.
[Verse 1]
I want him to meet his maker
I used to be a lover, now I'm a hater
My passion to succeed is watching him bleed
Oh Lord, what have become of me?
[Chorus]
Once upon a time, I was a fool
Too cool for school, gangster cruel
Blood in, blood out, pull the trigger, no doubt
Lucky motherfucker, you don't know what I'd do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
And he still lingers in the dark, oh
Oh, Lucifer
You better watch out
[Verse 2]
The evil within has never been greater
My soul has been seized and he's the dictator

[Chorus]
Once upon a time, I was a fool
Too cool for school, gangster cruel
Blood in, blood out, pull the trigger, no doubt
Lucky motherfucker, you don't know what I'd do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
And he still lingers in the dark, oh
Oh, Lucifer
You better watch out
[Bridge]

[Chorus]
Once upon a time, I was a fool
Too cool for school, gangster cruel
Blood in, blood out, pull the trigger, no doubt
Lucky motherfucker, you don't know what I'd do to you
I used to kick it with Lucifer
And he still lingers in the dark, oh
Oh, Lucifer
You better watch out
[Outro]
The devil's been an angel
Even the Devil's been an angel
Lucifer
D-Devil's been an angel
D-Devil's been an angel
Even the Devil's been an angel
Lucifer
