I made the deal: fame and an early grave. The dying at 27 wasn't hard. Jimi Hendrix, Janice Joplin, Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison... they all honored their deals. Dying that young ain't a curse, it's a blessing. Living for 27 years, some on top of the world, was fine. It's good to know when it's going to end.
But Sylvester Stewart, you're truly cursed. You cheated at the crossroads. Sly Stone, you had it all before you was 27. You're just a tortured soul now. The Devil don't have to do anything! Fool, you're doing it to yourself with the devil's candy. If you ain't gonna die, at least don't get on stage acting simple.
