Devil, Go Away From My Door is a high-energy, spiritually charged Afro-beat track that plays out as a fierce battle between righteousness and temptation. Built around a driving, repetitive rhythmic structure, the song serves as a powerful declaration of spiritual boundaries. The narrator stands firm against the persistent “knocking” of negative forces, actively choosing to stay grounded and refuse to stray from a path of light and integrity.
Rather than taking a passive stance, the lyrics exhibit defiance. The narrator physically and metaphorically fortifies their space with chains and locks to shut out evil vibrations, ignoring the screams of temptation outside. The track transitions from personal resistance to a collective, high-octane rallying cry, mobilizing the community to forcefully “kick the devil right outta here.” Blending elements of spiritual warfare with an infectious Afro-beat groove, the song is an empowering anthem about protecting one’s peace, resisting corruption, and fiercely defending the threshold of one’s home and soul from negative influences.

Devil, Go Away From My Door lyrics
Go Away From My Door
Go Away From My Door
Go Away From My Door
You gotta do what’s right
If you wanna walk in the light
The devil he always knocking at my door
You gotta do what’s right
If you wanna walk in the light
The devil he always knocking at my door
What he wanna come here for?
What he wanna come here for?
What he wanna come here for?
What he wanna come here for?
What he wanna come here for?
What he wanna come here for?
What he wanna come here for?
I put chains and locks to keep him out
I hear him outside scream and shout
I don’t want to look his way
I don’t wanna leave David’s House and stray
Come on now
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick the devil
We gonna kick the devil
We gonna kick the devil right outta here!
I feel your evil vibration
Please don’t lead me into temptation
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
Don’t darken my doorstep no more
Ain’t no one here that you’re looking for
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
Come on now
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick the devil
We gonna kick the devil
We gonna kick the devil right outta here
Come on now
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick
We gonna kick the devil
We gonna kick the devil
We gonna kick the devil right outta here
Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
I said Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day
I said Devil devil go away
Don’t come back another day, no
Don’t come back another day
