Sanctum

[Verse 1:Boogey]

I’m flipping through Bible Pages

I’m Looking for something Inside to save me

Anything about endurance And having faith in a deity

Anything about descriptions Of Jesus’ face in them Paintings

There’s a Cloth with the blood pattern of his face when he stained it?

Absent-minded in Sunday school

And now whenever Producers ask me when

I’mma have the time to voice, I say Sunday’s cool

Don’t get me wrong, God is first

But I’m beginning to think

That he lives inside of us

And not in church

Tunde’s papa died, and that tortured him

Mine alive; are you saying I go to mass more than him

Y’all make it look like the size Of your cash offering

Bought a one way ticket to heaven, flying past all the Sinners

No heresy, no blasphemy, just an awesome thinker

With a computer mind, and the rhymes go through that Colour printer

And so the picture vivid, Every pixel in it

This is truth but I ain’t tryna replace the scriptures with it

Just Listen. Chill my nigga just listen

I find peace in my inner Sanctum

I look for God and then I Thank him; for this


[Hook: JaneSam]

Happy day

Oh happy day

Oh happy day

Oh happy day


[Verse 2: Boogey]

My name is Musa and I’m a Muslim

Been pushing to marry Mary;

My parents think it’s some bullshit

What will your kids do? Go to church and take communion

Or go to mosque for prayers and always do ablution

I just wish they would be Open-minded

Her parents too; I hope they find it

In their hearts to let us tie the

Knot Or we just might elope and tie it

I was the one who broke her hymen

What if I wrote and signed it

On that piece of paper? Peace you haters

It feels like we been released from cages

She got the keys to her father’s jeep, we’ll take it

And then speed away, until we reach a place where

Nobody cares about your method of worship

And every pastor just a regular person

No jets in his purchase

And every celebrity cares

More about the lives he touches

And not about the bottles he popping, and dimes he fucking

Not only concerned about the swag

Walking with a limp; somebody have the doctor

Prescribe some crutches

Imagine me being tired of rapping

Ain’t getting paid

All these people do is admire my actions

Imagine ‘em calling me a Legend

Or comparing me to ‘em after this

But I ain’t hearing ‘em from Inside of my casket

Took my time chasing Greatness

I desire it faster

Got the fire, the passion

If I just happen To drop an album

Would you buy it in traffic Or drive and pass it?

Would your answer be the same if I die in a crash

And have these suckers saying my mixtape was entirely classic?

Y'all returning the love when the recipient absent

She be talkin’ ‘bout she misses me

But stupid this me make the most of all this

Quality time while we have it

They like “No, Boogey, please you not leaving Hiphop

Around here will prolly die the day you stop breathing

You gotta be patient. They will relate in due time

They will catch up to your pace as mediocrity declines ”

Aight, I’ll think about it

Damn, I just thought about it

Half these niggas get talked about, after their coffins grounded

How about it. Right on the grave

A lonely Flower sprouted

A fruit of my inner sanctum I’ll find God thank him for this

In Nigeria where Boogey comes from, cross ethnic marriage is not something people encourage. David’s parents have the same view on the subject. This is a issue most people have touched on. COME ONE PEOPLE:

Boogey wants people to remember him when he’s gone has the only real hip hop guy that stood when everybody was doing mainstream music

Celebrities care about the image they put put more than, David hopes they cared more about using their fame and money to help poor people.

Few artiste that have have talked about these are:
1. Kendrick Lamar “Vanity Slave”
2. J Cole “Chaining Day”
3. Wale “Vanity”

“If I just happen To drop an album Would you buy it in traffic Or drive and pass it?”

Boogey questions the fake love people are giving him and wonders if they’ll cop his album when it drops.
Mode 9 is considered one of the est rappers in Nigeria but his album sales his worst than one can imagine.

Lesson: Never let the nice things people say to your face deceive you

We never appreciate what we have till we no longer have it. Then it;s this

To be released from a cage means to be set from from something uncomfortable.
David feels tellin her parents he dis-virgined her will solve the problem or running away with her will help

“I was the one who broke her hymen What if I wrote and signed it On that piece of paper? Peace you haters”

He tries to find other means to convince the parents. One bin telling the parents he’s the man that popped the cherry. Smart way to get her

“They like “No, Boogey, please you not leaving Hiphop Around here will prolly die the day you stop breathing You gotta be patient. They will relate in due time They will catch up to your pace as mediocrity declines”

David sometimes ponders about quiting rap due to the lack of support he gets but his true fans try giving him reasons why he shouldn’t

Boogey ends the song by telling us this is just a piece of things that go in his mind and he;ll like to thank god for his open mindedness

Ok let\s get the dictionary out on this:

  1. Heresy means to have a believe differently from other religious (Christian) believes

  2. Blasphemy: According to black dictionary, this is the oral or written reproach of God, his teaching and attributes.

So far David has been questioning the bible which means he’s questioning God. He tries to let people know he’s just a simple guy with a open mind processing the things he’s read before deciding to believe them

“And so the picture vivid, Every pixel in it This is truth but I ain’t tryna replace the scriptures with it Just Listen. Chill my nigga just listen I find peace in my inner Sanctum I look for God and then I Thank him; for this”

Boogey believes his opinion of the bible is true but at the same time he’s not here to change history. He only wants you to have a open mind to what he’s preaching

“And every pastor just a regular person No jets in his purchase”

Nigerian pastors are known to be very wealthy. This article confirms that:
http://www.celebritynetworth.com/articles/entertainment-articles/richest-pastors-nigeria/

Or allow this picture pull you in

Boogey hopes pastors were just ordinary men like Jesus so he could relate to them better.

Wale even touched on this topic in his song “Golden Salvation”
“Sunday services pastor is the wealthy one working it
Preaching Armageddon while
collection plates been circling the room
Fears but a tool
And Gospel gone commercial
pray the purpose isn’t cruel
And the workers in the pulpit want they blessings to improve”

He questions the bible and wonders if it’s contents are a true definition of the life Christ lived

Boogey was never present in church even though he was present at the service so he instead decides its better he spends his time on Sundays doing what his keeps his mind away from service. Rapping

Like most people, Boogey goes to his bible to find direction and things to motivate him through trying times.by having faith in a higher beaing.

“Don’t get me wrong, God is first But I’m beginning to think That he lives inside of us And not in church”

The bible says “Where two or three are gathered, he is there in their mist”. Boogey believes he doesn’t need to go to church to find God but rather he can be with God anywhere he wants cause God lives in him. More like Kanye West “I Am A God” right

“What will your kids do? Go to church and take communion Or go to mosque for prayers and always do ablution”

Theses are some of the questions David and other people who try to marry into different religion get faced with. In the next line, Boogey hopes they can be much more open minded

“Took my time chasing Greatness I desire it faster Got the fire, the passion”

The road to the top is hard work, burning desire (fire and passion) and requires patience. Something Napoleon Hill touched on his 13 principle

“Tunde’s papa died, and that tortured him Mine alive; are you saying I go to mass more than him Y’all make it look like the size Of your cash offering Bought a one way ticket to heaven, flying past all the Sinners”

A friend goes to church and ll his life to Christ but eventually loses his father when the man who doesn’t make it church a lot has is father alive.

Boogey also talks about how most pastors and people in general make it seem like the more money you give to the church, the better chance you have of making heaven.
Guess heaven will be made up of only rich men hey..

Boogey is considered as one of the best in Nigeria but like must rappers, his bank account doesn’t look good like the mainstream,
He thinks although they comparing him to the Eminen, they are a bit late with it since he’s no longer alive.

Just like Meek Mill said in his “"Dreams Worth More Than Money freestyle” ;
“A man don’t eat he gonna starve,
a man gonna starve he gonna die”

“Aight, I’ll think about it Damn, I just thought about it Half these niggas get talked about, after their coffins grounded”
