[00:00.31]Written by:Frequenzy AAlias/Frequenzy, AAlias
[00:00.63]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
[00:05.15]Get along with the voices inside of my head
[00:09.64]You're trying to save me stop holding your breath
[00:14.08]And you think I'm crazy yeah you think I'm crazy
[00:18.08]
[00:19.01]I wanted the fame but not the cover of Newsweek
[00:21.13]Oh well guess beggars can't be choosey
[00:23.56]Wanted to receive attention for my music
[00:25.51]Wanted to be left alone in public excuse me
[00:27.73]For wanting my cake and eat it too and wanting it both ways
[00:30.41]Fame made me a balloon 'cause my ego inflated
[00:32.45]When I blew see but it was confusing
[00:34.50]'Cause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf
[00:37.27]Abused ink used it as a tool when I blew steam wooh
[00:39.88]Hit the lottery oh wee
[00:41.26]But with what I gave up to get it was bittersweet
[00:43.47]It was like winning a used mink
[00:45.08]Ironic 'cause I think I'm getting so huge I need a shrink
[00:47.83]I'm beginning to lose sleep one sheep two sheep
[00:49.80]Going cuckoo and cooky as kool Keith
[00:51.13]But I'm actually weirder than you think
[00:53.07]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
[00:57.47]Get along with the voices inside of my head
[01:01.96]You're trying to save me stop holding your breath
[01:06.40]And you think I'm crazy yeah you think I'm crazy

[01:28.58]Now I ain't much of a poet but I know somebody once told me
[01:31.09]To seize the moment and don't squander it
[01:32.68]'Cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow
[01:34.99]So I keep conjuring sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from
[01:38.46]Yeah pondering'll do you wonders
[01:40.02]No wonder you're losing your mind the way it wanders
[01:42.05]Yoda loda le hee hoo
[01:43.29]I think it went wandering off down yonder
[01:44.78]And stumbled on 'ta Jeff VanVonderen
[01:46.62]
[01:47.45]'Cause I need an interventionist
[01:48.42]To intervene between me and this monster
[01:50.56]And save me from myself and all this conflict
[01:52.35]'Cause the very thing that I love's killing me and I can't conquer it
[01:55.53]My ocd's conking me in the head
[01:57.37]Keep knocking nobody's home I'm sleepwalking
[01:59.79]I'm just relaying what the voice in my head's saying
[02:02.10]Don't shoot the messenger I'm just friends
[02:04.21]I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
[02:07.18]Get along with the voices inside of my head

[02:38.76]Call me crazy but I have this vision
[02:40.39]One day that I'd walk amongst you a regular civilian
[02:43.36]But until then drums get killed and I'm coming straight at
[02:46.37]Mc's blood get spilled and I'll
[02:48.20]Take you back to the days that I'd get on a dre track
[02:50.58]Give every kid who got played that
[02:51.98]Pumped up feeling and sh*t to say back
[02:53.98]To the kids who played him
[02:55.09]I ain't here to save the f**king children
[02:56.61]But if one kid out of a hundred million
[02:58.42]Who are going through a struggle feels it and then relates that's great
[03:01.50]It's payback Russell Wilson falling way back
[03:03.65]In the draft turn nothing into something still can make that
[03:07.22]Straw into gold chump I will spin rumpelstiltskin in a haystack
[03:10.48]Maybe I need a straightjacket face facts
