Monster in Your Dreams
"Dynamic RAP track (120 BPM, A minor) — dark, cinematic, spooky. Theme: a terrifying monster everyone fears… but he’s kind inside. Tone: haunting, heavy, emotional. Length ~1:45. Vocal concept: Male rapper — deep, gritty, rhythmic flow. Ghostly female whispers echo his lines. Hook repeats like a curse: “I’m the monster in your dreams, But I’m not what I seem.” Verses short and punchy, switching between menace and sorrow: “They scream when I breathe, but I bleed too. Hide my heart where the shadows move.” Last line whispered: “I scare ‘cause I care.” Sound design & SFX: - Constant heartbeat pulse, thunder cracks, echoing footsteps, metal chains dragging. - Growls turned into bass hits. - Ghost whispers and reversed laughter weaving under bars. - Screeching violin stabs, creaking wood, howling wind on the drops. - Occasional glass shatter synced with snare hits. - Distant clock ticking near breakdowns. Music direction: - Trap foundation: deep 808s, tight hi-hats, snapping snares. - Creepy piano melody with dissonant bells. - Reversed choir pads and reverb-heavy risers for tension. - Add tape-stop moments before each hook. Structure: 0:00–0:10 — Rain, thunder, slow heartbeat. 0:11–0:35 — Verse 1: monster introduction, low vocal tone. 0:36–0:55 — Hook 1: “I’m the monster in your dreams…” full 808 drop. 0:56–1:15 — Verse 2: inner struggle, faster flow, distorted whispers. 1:16–1:35 — Final hook with screams, choir swells, bass distortion. 1:36–1:45 — Outro: rain fades, faint whisper — “don’t be afraid.” Mix & tone: Sub-heavy, cinematic, and chilling. Vocals upfront, SFX wide and immersive. Feels like a Halloween nightmare with a heartbeat — scary on the outside, human inside."
Fear collides with every whisper when I rise
Chains echo my sorrow, shadows hold my cries
Ghostly ones reveal the soul you can't disguise
I'm the monster in your dreams
But I'm not what I seem
I'm the monster in your dreams
But I'm not what I seem
They scream, but I breathe, but I bleed too
Hide my heart when the shadows move
Thunder fuels my fury, yet tears still fall
Beneath this fearsome mask, I'm human after all
I'm the monster in your dreams
But I'm not what I seem
I'm the monster in your dreams
But I'm not what I seem
Don't be afraid
