(The Atomix) (The Atomix) very afriad
Very afraid, very afraid
Dirt on my name
I know I make you afraid
Nigga, be very afraid
Tryna put dirt on my name (name)
Big body whips everyday (yeah)
I'm in the big body Mulsanne
I'm goin' right off the brain
I'm goin' right off the brain
Mm, I'm goin' right off the brain, yeah, mm
The way you be sayin' my name, yeah
You do Percocets, that's how I know that you crazy (crazy, whoa)
But who am I to judge you? I'm on the same thing
Yeah, I used to be on that back block
Right where everybody sold crack rock
Me and T-Flee catchin' mad top
From a skeezer, I don't need her
I need Benz, Bentleys, and Beamers
If you could take my bitch, keep her
It's Hoodie Season, I'm the reaper
I know you very afraid
Nigga, be very afraid
Tryna throw dirt on my name
Wanna put me in the grave
Nigga just watch what you say (yeah)
Nigga just watch what you sayin'
Niggas get shot every day, ayy
But I ain't afraid
Amen
I wanna pray to God, just in case we catch a prey, mm (yeah)
I could draw a weapon on you, you can never trace, mm (trace)
Scope got a beam on it, y'all can see the laser (laser)
And bros come before my hoes
Yeah, I don't wanna ride with you, girl
I just wanna be your side nigga
Niggas want a ride-or-die nigga
But it's never hoes over my niggas
Never hoes over my niggas
Yeah, it's never hoes over my niggas
Highbridge, 6-5, nigga
I swear, I'ma be this way until I motherfuckin' die, nigga
Ain't no need for me to lie to you
You say you riding, who you riding for?
When it's static, you don't go outside no more
Say you with the shits, but not for sure
Say you with the shits, but not for sure
I ain't never been this fly before
Christian Louboutins and Christian Diors, mm
I used to never get paid (yeah)
I used to never get paid
Now, I can't remember my name
All of these bitches be calling me bae (baby)
Now, I got watches and chains
Feelin' like I just hopped out a lake
I put that Glock to your brain
If you touch it, even if it was a mistake
I know you very afraid
Nigga, be very afraid
Tryna throw dirt on my name (yeah)
Wanna put me in the grave
Nigga just watch what you say (yeah)
Nigga just watch what you sayin'
'Cause niggas get shot every day, ayy
But I ain't afraid
Amen
I wanna pray to God, just in case we catch a prey, mm (yeah)
I could draw a weapon on you, you can never trace, mm (trace)
Scope got a beam on it, y'all can see the laser (laser)
And bros come before my hoes (yeah)
(Yeah, bros come before my hoes)
(Mm, 'fore my hoes)
(Yeah, you know I'm on, know I'm on)
The lyrics to A Boogie wit da Hoodie's song "The Reaper" speak to the rapper's rise to fame and the scrutiny that comes with it, as well as his loyalty to his crew over anyone else. He addresses those who seek to tarnish his reputation by spreading rumors or trying to put "dirt on [his] name." A Boogie asserts that he is "very afraid" and that his haters should "watch what [they] say" because "niggas get shot every day," but simultaneously insists that he himself is not afraid. The lyrics also touch on his drug use and past experiences with violence and hustling.
One interesting aspect of the song is the use of the motif of the reaper, which A Boogie identifies as himself. The reaper is a symbol of death and destruction, and its presence in the lyrics adds to the ominous and threatening tone of the song. The repeated refrain of "I know you very afraid" also contributes to this sense of foreboding.
Another notable feature of the lyrics is the way A Boogie contrasts his current success and wealth with his past struggles. He talks about how he used to "never get paid" and how he and his friend T-Flee used to "catch mad top from a skeezer." However, now he is "feelin' like [he] just hopped out a lake," which suggests a feeling of rejuvenation and liberation.
