Lyrics

I'm friends with the monster
That's under my bed
Get along with the (1)______ inside of my head
You're trying to (2)____ me
Stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy
Yeah, you think I'm crazy (crazy)

I wanted the (3)____, but not the cover of Newsweek
Oh well, guess (4)_______ can't be choosy
Wanted to receive (5)_________ for my music
Wanted to be left alone in (6)______ excuse me
Been wanting my (7)____, And eat it too
And wanting it both (8)____
Fame made me a (9)_______ cause my ego inflated
When I (10)____ seep and it was confusing
Cause all I wanted to do
is be the Bruce Lee of (11)_____ leaf
Abused (12)___ , used it as a tool when I blew steam
Hit the (13)_______(oh wee)
With what I (14)____ up to get was bittersweet
It was like (15)_______ a huge meet
Ironic 'cause I (16)_____
I'm getting so huge I need a (17)______
I'm beginning to lose (18)_____: one sheep, two sheep
Going cuckoo and cookey as Kool Keith
But I'm actually (19)_______ 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 trying to save me
Stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy
Yeah, you think I'm crazy

Well, that's nothing
oh oh oh oh
Well, that's nothing
oh oh oh oh

Now I ain't much of a poet
But I know somebody once told me
to (20)_____ the moment
And don't (21)________ it
Cause you never know when it could all be over
Tomorrow so I keep (22)_________
Sometimes I wonder where
these thoughts (23)_____ from
(Yeah, ponder it, do you want this?
there's no wonder you're losing your mind
the way you're wandering?)
I think you've been (24)_________ off down yonder
and (25)________ onto Jeff VanVonderen
Cause I needed an interventionist
to intervene (26)_______ me and this monster
And save me from (27)______ and all this conflict
Cause the very thing that I love is (28)_______ me
and I can't conquer it
My OCD is conking me in the head
Keep (29)________, nobody's home,
I'm sleepwalking
I'm just relaying what the voice in my head saying
Don't (30)_____ the messenger,
I'm just friends with the...

I'm friends with the monster
That's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're trying to save me
Stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy
Yeah, you think I'm crazy

Well, that's nothing
oh oh oh oh
Well, that's nothing
oh oh oh oh

Call me (31)_____, but I had this vision
One day that,
I'd walk (32)_______ you a regular civilian
But, until then,
(33)_____ get killed and I'm Coming straight at
Emcees, (34)_____ get spilled and I
Take it back to the days that, I get on a Dre track
Give every (35)___ who got played at
Pumped the feeling
and (36)____ to say back
To the kids who played 'em
I ain't here to save the fucking (37)________
But if one kid out of a (38)_______ million
Who are going through a (39)________ feels
and it (40)_______ that's great
It's payback, Russell Wilson falling way back
In the (41)_____, turn nothing into something still,
can make that
Straw in the gold chump I will spend
Rumpelstiltskin in a hay stack
Maybe I need a straightjacket, face facts
I am (42)____ for real, but I'm okay with that
It's nothing, I'm still friends with the...

I'm friends with the monster
That's under my bed
Get along with the voices inside of my head
You're trying to save me
Stop holding 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)
Get along with the voices inside of my head
(You're tryna)
You're trying to save me
Stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy
Yeah, you think I'm crazy

Well, that's nothing
