God I need a sign
Sign for something new
I'm lost with no direction
A path to guide me straight through
Fear and doubt surround me
Consumes me to my bones
It swallows all my hope til
I feel so all alone
Show me the courage
Give me the knowledge
Reveal the strength
I know I have
Times just seem harder
Close to departure
You need to save me
While you can
Feel like I'm losing
Days so confusing
It's not the life
That I had planned
I'm shackled in chains
By thoughts in my brain
I call it the Boogeyman
I look outside my window
While trapped in misery
Consider all the exits
But none will set me free
I feel it coming closer
Flowing towards me like a wave
It sucks me into darkness
Cuz they don't want me saved
Show me the courage
Give me the knowledge
Reveal the strength
I know I have
Times just seem harder
Close to departure
You need to save me
While you can
Feel like I'm losing
Days so confusing
It's not the life
That I had planned
I'm shackled in chains
By thoughts in my brain
I call it the Boogeyman
One foot in the grave
Will I be identified at the morgue
Knowing I've been going through it
I really don't think
We on the same accord
Got to keep it
On you going to the store
Taking L's ain't
No winners in this war
Paranoia on a whole
'nother level
Mama gone I've been
Dancing with the devil
When I'm home girls
Fighting for attention
Couldn't really give it
(Couldn't really give it)
If I can focus on the bag
Is that really living
(Is that really living)
Street life where a Nigga learned
Supposed to pivot (supposed to pivot)
But I didn't have a understanding
Of what was coming with it (with it )
Like the snake things
And the fake things
Court cases bullet casings
Now I'm faced with
When I facing hella
Years in a cell pacing
(Breath)
Whole destination rerouted
Conversations at the visitation
I'm a visionary, vision clouded
Doubted that the Boogeyman
Could have took your man
Cause I'm managing
To come up out it
Look a man dead in his eyes
Devil is Lie
Lie we gon' see about it
Show me the courage
Give me the knowledge
Reveal the strength
I know I have
Times just seem harder
Close to departure
You need to save me
While you can
Feel like I'm losing
Days so confusing
It's not the life
That I have planned
I'm shackled in chains
By thoughts in my brain
I call it the Boogeyman
