“Devil” is a song which warns the listeners of the devilish nature hidden beneath a person's calm demeanor. When the members refer to the “devil,” they are referring to themselves. The track mentions that each person is capable of having a devil awaken inside of them if they are treated badly enough, and it just so happens they are capable of getting revenge on them too.[3] Musically, it is a primarily retro-inspired track and borrows from elements like doo-wop and surf rock. The bass guitar that opens “Devil” lingers for practically the entire song, joined by handclaps and jangly synth.[4] The rap ventures into trap territory which adds a refreshing texture to the primarily retro track.
