The Boogieman

[Intro]

And just when they thought that everything was peachy keen

Somewhere deep within the shadows

There were other things to be seen

An untamable beast with the urge to feast and only alone would he stand

The corporate affair

On the 67th tier

There lies the Boogieman

[Verse 1]

No introduction needed, N9ne times you must repeat it

Mind tryin' to just delete it, I'm N9ne supposed to be this rough MC

Whose gluttony would rhyme grime, trust, believe it

A legend ever since the projects, a odd Tech would get respect

When he wreck the set but never get the props that was God blessed

So this is me, never lettin' the KOD rest

The object of rawness, dejected steps to darkness

Led to the industry whispering the name

History became a mystery 'cause listeners in the game

Wish ta sing the same riffs, cerebral glitch will lead to lame

And this will be your pit for me to split and bleed your brain

They heard the name but can't put a face with it, oh what a shame

When it rains in the woods he stands still

He turns the lanes from sane to straight wicked

Don't tell me you ain't heard the sayin', "The Boogieman's real"

[Chorus]

He's underneath your bed

Trapped inside your head

You try to fight it

But you decide it's just that

Boogieman

We fear what we can't see

This web's a tangled weave

Life designed to

Try and blind you

From that Boogieman

And in that voice you hear

"Eliminate your fears"

What do you do?

Discover the truth

That it's the Boogieman

And now you know it's real

And everything you feel

Hits you again, you will stand

Face-to-face with that

Boogieman

[Verse 2]

They don't wanna have to try to do as I do

That's probably why it ain't been easy for me to slide through

I chew rappers up on stage that likes to flew

Out with the ravens, flight to hating, haven lies you

'Cause you don't want change and you don't want strange

Rearranging the main lanes to brain games from plain Jane

That's when your fame's Strange and you can't maintain

You think you sang such an insane reign, same thang

And I'm the shadow in the dark that came for battlin' the park

And they skidaddled when I barked, I gave a rattle to their hearts

'Cause they're afraid that they will all fail

Darkness will prevail, the Boogieman is not a tall tale

[Bridge]

What a tough act to follow

You afraid? Tell me are ya?

When this came you were nada

Tell your lane "sayonara"

(The Boogieman, the Boogieman)

[Chorus]

He's underneath your bed

Trapped inside your head

You try to fight it

But you decide it's just that

Boogieman

We fear what we can't see

This web's a tangled weave

Life designed to

Try and blind you

From that Boogieman
