Afrojack - The Monster Lyrics
[Pre-Hook: Rihanna]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bedGive along with the voices inside of my headYou're trying to save me, stop holding your breathAnd you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy[Verse 1: Eminem]I wanted the fame, but not the cover of NewsweekOh well, guess beggars can't be chooseyWanted to receive attention for my musicWanted to be left alone in public excuse meFor wanting my cake, and eat it too, and wanting it both waysFame made me a balloon cause my ego inflatedWhen I blew; see, but it was confusingCause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leafAbused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam(Ooh!) Hit the lottery, oh weeBut with what I gave up to get was bittersweetIt was like winning a used minkIronic cause I think I'm getting so huge I need a shrinkI'm beginning to lose sleep: one sheep, two sheepGoing cuckoo and cooky as Kool KeithBut I'm actually weirder than you think cause I'm...[Pre-Hook: Rihanna]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bedGive along with the voices inside of my headYou're trying to save me, stop holding your breathAnd you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy[Bridge: Rihanna]Well, that's nothing[Verse 2: Eminem]No, I ain't much of a poet but I know somebodyOnce told me to seize the moment and don't squander itCause you never know when it all could be over tomorrowSo I keep conjuring, sometimes I wonderWhere these thoughts spawn from(Yeah, ponder it, do you want this?No wonder you losing your mind, the way it wanders)Yodel-odel-ay-hee-hooI think you've been wandering off down yonderAnd stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderenCause I need an interventionist to intervene between me and this monsterAnd save me from myself and all this conflictCause the very thing that I love's killing me and I can't conquer itMy OCD is conking me in the headKeep knocking, nobody's home, I'm sleepwalkingI'm just relaying what the voice in my head is sayingDon't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with the...[Pre-Hook: Rihanna]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bedGive along with the voices inside of my headYou're trying to save me, stop holding your breathAnd you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy[Bridge: Rihanna]Well, that's nothing[Verse 3: Eminem]Call me crazy, but I have this visionOne day that I walk amongst you a regular civilianBut until then drums get killedAnd I'm coming straight at MCs, blood get spilledAnd I take it back to the days that I get on a Dre trackGive every kid who got played at, pumped up feelingAnd shit to say back to the kids who play 'emI ain't here to save the *****ing childrenBut if one kid out of a hundred millionWho are going through a struggle feels and then relates, that's greatIt's payback, Russell Wilson falling way back in the draftTurn nothing into something, still can make that, straw into gold chumpI will spin Rumpelstiltskin in a haystackMaybe I need a straight jacket face facts, I am nuts for realBut I'm okay with that, it's nothing, I'm still friends with the...[Pre-Hook: Rihanna]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bedGive along with the voices inside of my headYou're trying to save me, stop holding your breathAnd you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy[Bridge: Rihanna]Well, that's nothing
