The Monster

There ain't a monster that's under my bed

Ain't friends with no voices inside of my head

You're trying to shake me, quit holding your breath

And you think it's crazy, yeah you think it's crazy

I wanted the dream... I prayed God would use me

Oh well, I guess rap can't be choosy

Wanted to receive attention for my music

Wanted to be an example, so excuse me

For wanting my cake, and eat it too, and wanting it both ways

Fame may be a balloon 'cause my haters inflated

When I blew; see, and it was confusing

'Cause all I wanted to do is be the bruce lee of loose leaf

Abused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam

(Ooh!) be the best that I could be

But with what I learned when I got it was bittersweet

It was like dreaming a new dream

Ironic 'cause I think I'm getting so quick I don't even think

They ain't making me lose sleep, it's: One sheep, two sheep

Flowin' cuckoo and cooky as kool keith

But I'm actually closer than you think because there

'Cause there ain't a monster that's under my bed

Ain't friends with no voices inside of my head

You're trying to shake me, stop holding your breath

And you think it's crazy, yeah you think it's crazy

Well that's not fair

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, well that's not fair

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Now I ain't much of a poet but I know somebody

Once told me to seize the moment and don't squander it

'Cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow

So I keep pondering

Sometimes I wonder

Where these dreams come from

(Yeah, ponder it, do you want that?

You can never be who you want... You're just a kid matt)

Yodel-odel-ay-hee-hoo

I think I just stumbled again

Right to memory lane

Back to my first topic

'Cause you ain't gotta be the biggest, best, or the smartest

If you don't accept you've went your farthest yet

You fall, don't break step ya get started

'Cause the very holding you back is inside ya head

And as for me - I'll be doing my thing

Growing up, the kid that'll be the next king

That's my dream... Maybe we then should get aquatinted

The monster - lyrics

I'm 3 years deep and I'm here to stay cause

'Cause there ain't a monster that's under my bed

Ain't friends with no voices inside of my head

You're trying to shake me, stop holding your breath

And you think it's crazy, yeah you think it's crazy

Well that's not fair

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, well that's not fair

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh
