Nightmare
Ja¥en x District Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The clan been moving
You don't wanna get to close
Cause we got demons, we got ghouls and we got ghosts
Just to feel alive I might just roll another dose
To help me cut the bleeding, baby girl, I need you right here
She looks like a dream but she's a nightmare
Hmmmm, but I don't care
Don't ever wake me up from this nightmare, she's my nightmare
Bet you can't decide, when it's do or die
Between you and I, sacrificing for my guys
Leave you with no alibi
Do not cross my side
Cut throat like kunai, shuriken, blade or scythe, you decide
Gang run through the night I'll introduce ya
I can't hear you through the turbo on the supra
I know you afraid I might induce ya
But I got too many problems
Sm-smoke blowing like napalm
My head never stay calm
She roll her fingers on my vetements
Roaring like a demon
She think I can't get close to her heart
But she don't know I belong in the dark
The clan been moving
You don't wanna get to close
Cause we got demons, we got ghouls and we got ghosts
Just to feel alive I might just roll another dose
To help cut the bleeding, baby girl, I need you right here
She looks like a dream but she's a nightmare
Hmmmm, but I don't care
Don't ever wake me up from this nightmare, she's my nightmare
Rollin' up twos, twos, twos
Sippin' on juice, juice, juice
She got me running my mind
I cannot lose, lose, lose
But I forget if she a devil or an angel
Yeah, it seems to only differ on the angle
Sweet dreams, my baby
In a slumber so deep
Sweet dreams are fading
Now you're scared to go sleep
Full of demons, ghouls and a ghost
Taught me everything that I know
Even though we got it on scope
She be the one to make you lose hope
Focus right here
Yeah, just like that
She's a nightmare, but I'm haunting her right back
The clan been moving
You don't wanna get to close
Cause we got demons, we got ghouls and we got ghosts
Just to feel alive I might just roll another dose
To help me cut the bleeding, baby girl, I need you right here
She looks like a dream but she's a nightmare
Hmmmm, but I don't care
Don't ever wake me up from this nightmare, she's my nightmare
Nightmares all around us
Step inside, yeah, if you dare




Nightmares all around us
Feel your fears around you stare

Overall Meaning

The song "Nightmare" by Ja¥en x District is a trap tune with lyrics that narrate a haunting and reckless night experience. The lyrics talk about a powerful gang or clan that should not be approached, for they have scary demons, ghouls, and ghosts. The gang may be ruthless, but the singer needs them to cut the bleeding of his chaotic life. He might smoke another dose of substance to feel alive, but he acknowledges the danger. Though he's aware that his girl might be a nightmare, he's still drawn to her, admitting that he belongs in the dark.


The chorus repeats a phrase that the singer doesn't care that his girl is a nightmare, and he doesn't want to wake up from his current nightmare. The next verse continues with the singer trying to balance his gang life and his romantic life with his girl. He's not sure if she's a devil or an angel, and it only depends on the angle. He feels like he cannot lose her, but the nightmares and the fears surrounding the gang life and his girl are also oppressively real. In the bridge, the lyrics emphasize that nightmares are all around and there is no escape from fear.

Sweet dreams, my baby
I hope she has pleasant dreams


In a slumber so deep
She's in a very heavy sleep


Sweet dreams are fading
Her dreams are becoming less pleasant


Now you're scared to go sleep
She's too afraid to fall asleep


Full of demons, ghouls and a ghost
Her dreams are haunted by supernatural beings


Taught me everything that I know
My experiences with these dangerous entities have taught me a lot


Even though we got it on scope
Despite being aware of the situation


She be the one to make you lose hope
She's the one who can crush your spirit and make you feel helpless


Focus right here
Pay attention closely


Yeah, just like that
That's exactly what I need


She's a nightmare, but I'm haunting her right back
I may be dealing with a difficult situation, but I'm also comfortable in that environment


Nightmares all around us
We're surrounded by fearful, nightmare situations


Step inside, yeah, if you dare
Come closer, but be prepared for the danger


Feel your fears around you stare
It's a situation that makes you feel uncomfortable and scared

This is like a new genre of music! I was wondering how you create the effects on the voice, makes the sound even more beautiful!

Shindo Music

@Jørn Aaknes I dont know much but I think I know how its done... with that stuff.. its like a new drug er something. so you grab a worthy beauty then stir 2 parts oxi and a handful of molly then add rediculous Sound System and Jayen District Talent and Presto...
