(Verse 1)
I'm the Raven, the one and only
Sittin' on this bust of Pallas, lonely
I've seen things, I've heard things
I've been around for centuries
Now I'm spittin' rhymes, tellin' stories
Nevermore, nevermore
That's all I ever say
But the truth is, I've got a lot to say
I've been around since the days of yore
Seen things you couldn't imagine, nevermore
(Chorus)
Nevermore, nevermore
That's my motto, that's my score
I've seen it all, I've heard it all
But I never speak, nevermore
(Verse 2)
I've seen wars and I've seen peace
I've seen love and I've seen hate
I've seen kings and I've seen peasants
But I never speak, nevermore
I've seen joy and I've seen sorrow
I've seen birth and I've seen death
I've seen it all, but I never say a word
I just sit here, nevermore
(Chorus)
Nevermore, nevermore
That's my motto, that's my score
I've seen it all, I've heard it all
But I never speak, nevermore
(Verse 3)
They try to get me to talk, to reveal my secrets
But I never speak, nevermore
I've seen things that would make you faint
But I never speak, nevermore
I'm the Raven, the one and only
Sittin' on this bust of Pallas, lonely
I've seen things, I've heard things
I've been around for centuries
Now I'm spittin' rhymes, tellin' stories
(Chorus)
Nevermore, nevermore
That's my motto, that's my score
I've seen it all, I've heard it all
But I never speak, nevermore

Rapping at your chamber door, I speak in tongues so raw
A messenger of sorrow, a harbinger of more
I caw and croak and tap, with beak so sharp and black
My words, a cryptic message, a warning that you lack

I am The Raven, the one who speaks in rhyme
The one who brings the nightmare, the one who stays in time
My words, a haunting echo, a never-ending curse
I am the Raven, the one who speaks in verse

I see the fear in your eyes, as I perch on high
A symbol of your guilt, a reflection of your lie
I know your secrets, I know your fears
I am the Raven, the one who brings the tears

I am The Raven, the one who speaks in rhyme
The one who brings the nightmare, the one who stays in time
My words, a haunting echo, a never-ending curse

I am the final chapter, the last word in your book
The end of your story, the final, fateful look
I am The Raven, the one who speaks "Nevermore"
A constant reminder, of what you can't restore

I am The Raven, the one who speaks in rhyme
The one who brings the nightmare, the one who stays in time

(Verse 1)
Back in the middle of a dreary December,
Down in your dreams where you sleep, do you remember?
A part of the darkness, I did explore,
Just a raven, rapping at your chamber door.
Yo, I was chilling, feeling the beat of my wing,
Gliding through the darkness, no bling, just sing.
You, a scholar, up way too late,
Delving into the sorrow, trying to contemplate.
(Chorus)
Rapping at your chamber door, what you perceive, what you implore,
Too deep in your phantom scare, can you see me or just my glare?
Shadow play on the chamber floor, but it's just me, ain't nothing more,
Only this and nothing more.
(Verse 2)
You called me a prophet, bird or fiend,
In your fear and your horror, you demeaned.
But, I'm the raven, to the night I'm born,
Just a bird's-eye view before the morn.
In old books you hid, sought out reasons,
But to live in your dread is the cruelest of treasons.
Answering your whispers with a single roar,
Remembering Lenore... just Lenore.
(Chorus)
Rapping at your chamber door, echo bouncing off the floor,
Each tap, each sound, every score, only this and nothing more.
Still your heart, don't implore, it's just me and nothing more,
Only this and nothing more.
(Bridge)
In the mirror of your fear, reflections become clear,
It’s your guilt that’s rapping, rapping at your chamber door.
From your nightmare, I take flight, a creature of the night,
In the rhythm of your terror, hear my echo roar... nothing more.
(Chorus)
So here I am, the raven, tapping at your haven,
Not to scandalize or ravage, but to soundtrack your lore.
Heart beating like a drum, to my rhythm, you succumb,
In the dark, that's what I'm for... only this and nothing more.
(Outro)
In your chamber forevermore, find solace on the floor,
I'm just a raven, at your door, tapping out the score.
A song that I'm singing, message that I'm bringing,
Still is sitting, still is sitting, saying... “nevermore”.

(Verse 1)
Yo, I'm perching, lurking, in the late night gloaming,
From a pallid bust of Pallas I be ominously looming,
You sittin' in your chamber, while I be outside booming,
Your door I'm-a tapping, your sanity consuming.
Shadow in the lamplight, ebony I be,
Got you crying out your lost love's name, shorty named Lenore,
You sinking in your sorrow, your spirits, they are poor,
Just a lone, lost raven knocking at your door.
(Chorus)
Nevermore, nevermore, you'll see your love Lenore,
Her name echo through your chamber, but she ain't walking through that door.
Nevermore, nevermore, I'm the bird that you abhor,
Just your nightly visitor, a raven rapping at your door.
(Verse 2)
Caught between the earthly plane and the Night's Plutonian shore,
Mind bleeds with remembrance, psyche's all tore,
Each memory a shadow, in your heart they bore,
Your despair, I'm-a feeding, raven at your door.
Darkness in your heart, in your dreams, it seep,
Got you scared of a solitary bird, got you lost in sleep,
Silent as a specter, into your soul, I creep,
Yo, I'm just a raven, man, why you gotta weep?
(Chorus)
Nevermore, nevermore, whispers from the yore,
I'm a raven rapping rhythms, ain't no raven done this before,
Nevermore, nevermore, her name across your floor,
In your mind forever echoing, like the tap-tap at your door.
(Verse 3)
Radiant maiden, in your visions, she dance,
In your heart, in your mind, in your last sad chance,
But with every tick of clock, your hope, it wanes or enhance,
Haunted by the raven, lost in this trance.
(Chorus)
Nevermore, nevermore, silence, I implore,
But my rap, it keeps on echoing, you can't ignore,
Nevermore, nevermore, till your soul is raw and sore,
Echo of a lost Lenore, by a raven at your door.
(Outro)
Yeah, I'm the raven, bringing the lore,
Just a wanderer from the Night's Plutonian shore,
No release, no peace; I'm the metaphor,
Just a winged word-bender, rapping at your door. Nevermore.
