back to life
DON DIABLO VS. SOUL II SOUL Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now, oh yeah

Show me how
Decide what you want from me
Tell me maybe I could be there for you

However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How (however)
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?

Back to life
Back to the present time
Back from a fantasy, yes
Tell me now, take the initiative
I'll leave it in your hands
Until you're ready, yeah

However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How
However, do you want me? (Oh, well, how do you want me?)
However, do you need me?
However, do you want me? (However)
However, do you need me? How
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you need me?

I live at the top of the block (top of the block)
No more room (no more room)
For trouble and fuss (no, no, no, there's not)
Need a change, a positive change
Look, it's me writing on the wall
Ever, do you want me, yes

However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How
However, do you want me? (Oh, oh, oh)
However, do you need me? (Tell me, now, how do you want me to be? Yeah)

Back to life, back to the day we had
Let's end this foolish game
Hear me out, don't let it waste away
Make up your mind, so I know where I stand

However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you want me? (However)
However, do you need me? (Do you need me?)
However, do you want me? (Need me)
However, do you need me? (Tell me now)
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? (Tell me, now, how do you want me to be? Yeah)
However, do you want me?
However, do you need me? How (oh, oh)




However, do you want me?
However, do you need me?

Loved how his fire form had the appearance of a mayan warrior with the headdress.

He's not dead guys. He is literally a demon. He is cursed, the curse was passed by the previous owner laz lane, they both was in hospital and met in purgatory, this is when laz lane passed the curse to chato.

The demon soul lives in chato, and in fact allows him to walk. If he didn't have the demons soul in him he would be a paraplegic.

The demon in him is actually said to be one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Because the demon has a supernatural horse called sombra.

Chato is immortal, as long has he has the demon in him. He's alive guys, he most likely escaped or took time to regenerate himself.

El Diablo deserved a movie of his own. He was powerful enough and had a compelling backstory.

@LostNbound

No he doesn't lol

@Kerosene.

@Capt Flea he deadass is interesting wtf you mean? He literally is immortal and is a literal fire god who's mexican, how isn't that interesting?

@unkown981

@Mobbin InABentley el diablo is a demon not a god exactly

@unkown981

What does being powerful have to do with a movie

@johmyh14

@unkown It makes for a movie with the potential for bigger explosions and more badass fights. That is what I want in an superhero movie.

"I lost one family, I ain't gonna lose another."
Seeing how quickly this line was delivered makes it quite obvious that there wasn't one person in the production team who believed it would be credible.

@crixuscrick6346

Literally the worst line in the entire film...when did they become so close?! 😂

@lesgalloiseries

@CRIXUS CRICK Never. That's the whole problem :)
