Below, you will find the lyrics for The Monster by Eminem.
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
Well, guess beggars can't be choosey
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 baloon 'cause my ego inflated
When I blew, see, but it was confusin'
'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
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 begginin' to lose sleep
One sheep, two sheep
Going cuckoo and kooky as Kool Keith
But I'm actually weirder than you think
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'
Well that's nothin'
No 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 spawn from
Yeah, ponder, do you want this
No wonder you losin' your mind the way it wanders
Yodalodaleheehoo
I think you've been wanderin' off down yonder
And stumbled onto jeff van vonderen
'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
Is killin' me and I can't conquer it
My OCD is conkin' me in the head
Keep knockin', nobody's home
I'm sleepwalkin'
I'm just relayin' what the voice in my head's saying
Don't shoot the messenger
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'
Well that's nothin'
Call me crazy, but I have 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 take it back to the days
That I get on a Dre track
Give every kid who got played that
Pumped up fellin' and to say back
To the kids who played 'em
I ain't here to save the children
But if one kid out of a hundred milion
Who are going through a struggle feels it
And then relates that's
Great
It's payback
Russel Wilson fallin' way back
In the draft
Turn nothin' into something
Still can make that
Straw into gold chump
I will spin rumplestiltskin in a haystack
Maybe I need a straight jacket, face facts
I am nuts for real
But I'm okay with that
It's nothing
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'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'
Well, that's nothin'
