BOOGEYMAN Songtext
von Pertinence

Like "Hello Monday, it′s good to meet ya"
Rise and grind and reset the weekend
Tryna climb to heights and new achievements
Hope to God I fought off the demons
Wednesday morning, woke up, I'm seasick
Gave into my vices Tuesday evening
Thursday rolls around and on repeat
I convince myself I just need the weekend


Like aw
Always fighting through life
On God
Just tryna get right
Yessuh
Wound tight
Get a damn massage
My God
Talking like
Aw
Always fighting through life
On God
Just tryna get right
Yessuh
Wound tight
Get a damn massage
My God

Until the boogeyman creeps in
Clothes on the floor, haven′t left my bed
Same show still playing on the TV
Still haven't brushed my teeth yet
Never said it'd be easy
Never mentioned how hard shit would get
If I die without making much difference
God damn it, I tried my best
Until the boogeyman creeps in
Clothes on the floor, haven′t left my bed
Same show still playing on the TV
Still haven′t brushed my teeth yet
Never said it'd be easy
Never mentioned how hard shit would get
If I die without making much difference
God damn it, I tried my best


Well, I been doing better
Rest assured
Told myself I don′t need anymore
Build foundations meant for my support
Sober up and go and get some sun
But the brightest days still bring shadows
And I don't like exaggerating
But I′m miserable
Envying the homies
Who ain't never even touched it
Who ain′t never gotta worry
How they'll make it through tomorrow
Man, it's obvious that I got a problem
So entitled, tryna live how I wanna
Can I pop my shit?
Twenty-four, I won′t ever be this young again
Can I be a rockstar?
Smoke, get lit
Ride to the sound of my own biggest hits
Til the wheels fall off
Til the brakes don′t pinch
Til I finally set it down just to pick it up again
You see, the boogeyman
Don't care who you is
Young, old, smart, dumb, broke, or rich
Preying on the folks
Who need healing from within
Preying on the kids
With the itchiest of skin
Tell us that the remedy
Is made by the man
Disguised opiates
Through advertisements
Not so convinced
But how soon we forget
They be flavoring the poison
So we think it′s all mint

Like aw
Maybe I never stood a chance at all
I was sixteen just tryna ball
So damn impressionable
Know it's my fault
Talking like aw
Always fighting through life
On God
Just tryna get right
Yessuh
Man I′m sorry to my mom and my heart
My God

Until the boogeyman creeps in
Clothes on the floor, haven't left my bed
Same show still playing on the TV
Still haven′t brushed my teeth yet
Never said it'd be easy
Never mentioned how hard shit would get
If I die without making much difference
God damn it, I tried my best
Until the boogeyman creeps in
Clothes on the floor, haven't left my bed
Same show still playing on the TV
Still haven′t brushed my teeth yet
Never said it′d be easy
Never mentioned how hard shit would get
If I die without making much difference
God damn it, I tried my best
