I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
I wanted the fame but not the cover of Newsweek
Oh well, guess beggars can't be choosy
Wanted to receive attention for my music
Wanted to be left alone in public, excuse me
For wantin' my cake, and eat it too, and wantin' it both ways
Fame made me a balloon 'cause my ego inflated
When I blew, see, but 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
Hit the lottery, woo-wee
But with what I gave up to get it was bittersweet
It was like winnin' a used mink
Ironic 'cause I think I'm gettin' so huge I need a shrink
I'm beginnin' to lose sleep: one sheep, two sheep
Goin' coo-coo and kooky as Kool Keith
But I'm actually weirder than you think, 'cause I'm
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Well, that's nothin'
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Well, that's nothin'
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
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 conjurin' sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawns from
Yeah, ponderin' will do you wonders
No wonder you're losin' your mind, lookin' down yonder
Yodel-odel-ay-hee-hoo!
I think it went wanderin' off down yonder
And stumbled on Jeff VanVonderen, 'cause I need an interventionist
To intervene between me and this monster
And save me from myself and all this conflict
'Cause the very thing that I love's killin' me and I can't conquer it
My OCD's conquers me and the head keep knockin'
Nobody's home, I'm sleepwalkin'
And just relayin' with the voices in my head sayin'
Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with the
Monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Well, that's nothin'
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Well, that's nothin'
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Call me crazy but I had this vision
One day that I walk amongst you a regular civilian
But until then, drums get killed and I'm comin' straight at MC's
Blood get spilled and I'll take you back to the days that I'd get on a Dre track
Give every kid who got played back, pumped up feelin' and shit to say back
To the kids who played him
I ain't here to save the fuckin' children
But if one kid out of a hundred million who are goin' through a struggle
Feels it and relates, that's great
It's payback, Russell Wilson fallin' way back in the draft
Turn nothin' into somethin', still can make that straw into gold
Chump, I will spin - Rumpelstiltskin in a haystack
Maybe I need a straight jacket, face facts
I am nuts for real, but I'm okay with that
It's nothin', I'm still friends with the
Monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy
Well, that's nothin'
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Well, that's nothin'
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
