Ozzy was a man who struggled with a lot of shit. Never a satanist though. Faith itself has dark themes, the Bible does. It doesnt mean its evil. Satan himself tells you that he is beautiful. Orthodox christianity is full of the macabre, for instance. Everything that black sabbath wrote that concerned the matter of Satan has portrayed him as an overwhelmingly negative thing.
And most of the metal satanist shit, even the ones that praised him, were just edgy teenagers trying to piss people off. And most of those bands that still exist don't even make songs about satan anymore because it was never an actual belief.
Wanna know what artists are satanic though? Katy Perry, Jay-z, etc, almost any pop star or popular rapper. Why? Because Satan dresses up in his fineries and tells you that he's beautiful. The people who sell their soul to Satan aren't sweaty norwegian reject teenagers with long hair who hate their parents.
It was all an act. Ozzy himself said he was a Christian and believed in God. If you read the lyrics he wrote while in black sabbath and as a solo artist, it's mostly positive messages about spiritual redemption, turning away from evil and bettering oneself. He never sang about worshipping satan or blasphemed Christ.

This one isn’t devil shit, he’s comparing the warmongers to satan and satan is happy when they commit destruction. They face judgement by God and satan laughs as he gets more souls. Im sure there are songs that do though.
The original lyrics were far different and the song was originally named Walpurgis for Walpurgis Night which was a repurposed pagan holiday from the Church. The lyrics were only changed because they knew the public wouldn't consume product at that time. Ozzy's jewish boss and wife would just release the lyrics as is now.
Witches gather at black masses
Bodies burning in red ashes
On the hill the church in ruin.
Is the scene of evil doings
It's a place for all bad sinners
Watch them eating dead rats' innards.
I guess it's the same, where ever you may go
Oh lord yeah
Carry banners which denounce the lord
See me rocking in my grave
See them anoint my head with dead rat's blood
See them stick the stake through me
Oh
Don't hold me back cause I just gotta go
They've got a hold of my soul now
Lords got my brain instinct with blood obscene
Look in my eyes I'm there enough
Yeah
On the scene a priest appears
Sinners falling at his knees
Satan sends out funeral pyre
Casts the priest into the fire
It's the place for all bad sinners.
Watch them eating dead rats' innards
I guess it's the same, where ever you may go
Oh lord yeah

I really depends on the subgenre. Classic rock is mostly ironic, edgy, or just appealing to what was popular. Modern alternative rock is edgy, allegorical, or sometimes redemption (both religious and nonreligious) themed. Older metal seems to be where you're most likely to find any serious Satanism, but most of it is either edgy or allegorical. Newer metal is suprisingly very pro-Christian, or it at least encourages moral behaviors and mindsets, even if it is often coded under layers of allegory and irony.
A couple years ago Avenged Sevenfold wrote an album about anti-consumerism and death. One particular song was about how consumerism is destroying the world.
>More power, more pace
>More money, more taste
>More sex, more pills
>More skin, more shills
>Build tall, build higher
>Build far, build wider
>Build here, build down
>Build up, build now
>Look at the way you go
>You're one in a million
>And you know it shows
>We love you
>Unto the mud
Naturally being a mainstream band they partnered with a "counter-culture" band of feminist trannies to make an alternate version of that specific song with le empowered woman singing instead. Irony so thick you would die crashing into it. Trannies are literally the ultimate form of consumption; paying a mad scientist to mutilate yourself using medical resources just to pretend you're special.
Sharon Osbourne identifies as Jewish, as her father, Don Arden, was Jewish. She has expressed that Judaism is an important part of her identity and family life.
Don Arden (born Harry Levy; 4 January 1926 – 21 July 2007) was an English music manager, agent, and businessman. He managed the careers of rock acts such as Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, Gene Vincent, Air Supply, Small Faces, The Move, Black Sabbath, Electric Light Orchestra, and Trickster.
Want to be a superstar, prepare to have a jewish handler.

Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields, the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds
Oh, Lord, yeah
Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that all to the poor, yeah
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait till their judgment day comes, yeah
Now, in darkness, world stops turning
Ashes where their bodies burning
No more war pigs have the power
Hand of God has struck the hour
Day of Judgment, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercies for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
Oh, Lord, yeah
Witches gather at black masses
Bodies burning in red ashes
On the hill the church in ruin.
