They Know Me Lyrics

Spot on, ThePokeDuck. That is what that line means. The song is about a self-righteous man who goes through life passing himself off as whatever he can only to serve himself. Making himself look better or getting what he wants. Stealing money or medicine and lying a bout who he is to sound important "The lives that he's saved". The chorus is not about suicide. When he dies he goes to heaven to be judged and Saint Peter lockes him out of the pearly gates. When he tries to bribe his way in he is cast to hell where he meets Satan, the only man to truly know him well. Satan has reserved a special place just for him.
