The Devil's Train

The story

          The Devil's Train goes out in memory of DJ Alexander Rey Hunt. We wrote this song during the 2016 Olympics in Sao Paolo. We started out writing the chords for a few songs but then got hooked by the first two bars of the first song. By the time morning came, we had nearly 11 minutes of the most organic ethnic acoustic electronic crossover we had ever heard. With the mind-blowing vocal take in the middle..."Life ain't Hard if you Play the Game, You Don't Need to Feel No Pain.... " R.I.P. Alex, Guy

Lyric's The Devil's Train


Let me tell ya Pretty People stop your Pushin’ at the Pressure coming down on you
I been thinking’ bout the World Outside and it’s the only thing you gotta do
Everybody always talking at me, tryin’ to stop me having so much Fun
Well I been spending all my life in Heaven, don’t know what I‘ve done?

Life ain’t hard if you Play the Game,
You don’t need to Feel no more Pain,
Life ain’t hard if you Play the Game,
You don’t need to Feel no Pain, Feel no Pain.

Let me tell you there’s a world we’re livin’ where you feel no pain
Get a ticket to the tracks, Get on, Get on, ride this train,
It’s a Never-ending Journey to the Burnin’, like a Rollin’ Stone Rollin’ Home
When you Surrender to the Pain, the Devil’s Train will Save your Soul..

Life ain’t hard if you Play the Game,
You don’t need to Feel no more Pain,
Life ain’t hard if you Play the Game,
You don’t need to Feel no Pain, Feel no Pain.
