For this, the musician, who was known simply as Lennon, could win non other but Jason Suecof, known for his masterpiece work for Metal-bands like Trivium, Chimaira or All That Remains. Together with him and drummer Dave Elitch, the trio managed to record a both emotional and also heavy album.
Final Words explodes of groovy guitars , gripping rhythms and catchy hooklines that go directly under your skin. Wrapped in a Suecof-like powerful sound-wall, the singer is leading the band on all directions through the songs - no matter if it is in an emotional or aggressive style.
Although the band is relatively heavy, they managed to keep one very important element in their music: Authenticy. And therefore no fan of modern sounding metal-music should even hesitate with this album...

Nobody
Devils Gift Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Made and shaped the person you've become
I have given permission
For all your decisions, all your mistakes
If you want to breathe
It's my words you need
Nobody loves you, nobody wants you
Nobody needs you, nobody sees you
Cause no one can have you but I
You don't always see me
Hide in the dark, walk when you walk
If you feel you're ready to break
I'll be the one decide what it takes
Nobody loves you, nobody wants you
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody needs you, nobody sees you
Cause no one can have you but I
Nobody wants you, nobody loves you
And nobody knows you like I do
Nobody needs you, nobody sees you
But no one can have you cause I do
I hear you pray it's always the same
Why can't you see your god is me
I give you life, I give you pain
Time to believe I'm all you need
I hear you pray it's always the same
Why can't you see your god is me
I give you life, I give you pain
Time to believe I'm all you need
I have been there since day one
Made and shaped the person you've become
If you want to breathe
It's my words, my words you need
Nobody loves you, nobody wants you
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody needs you, nobody sees you
But no one can have you cause I do
Nobody loves you, nobody wants you
Nobody knows you like I do
Nobody needs you, nobody sees you
But no one can have you cause I do
The lyrics to Devil's Gift's song "Nobody" are dark and ominous, depicting the dangerous and controlling nature of a toxic relationship. The singer, who appears to be a manipulative and possessive partner or entity, claims to have been there since the beginning and to have shaped the person their partner has become. They declare that they have given permission for their partner's every decision and mistake, insisting that if their partner wants to breathe, they need the singer's words. The unsettling tone of the song is reinforced by the repetition of the refrain, "nobody loves you, nobody wants you, nobody needs you, nobody sees you," followed by the twisted conclusion that "no one can have you but I."
Throughout the song, the singer reveals their desire to control all aspects of their partner's life, even claiming to hide in the dark and walk when they walk. The repeated line, "I hear you pray it's always the same, why can't you see your god is me," highlights the singer's god complex and desire for complete power over their partner's spiritual beliefs. The repeated use of the first-person point of view, "I," further emphasizes the singer's narcissistic and controlling nature.
Overall, this song is a chilling depiction of a manipulative and abusive relationship where one partner seeks to control every aspect of their partner's life, leaving them feeling trapped and isolated.
