[Intro:]
|
Monsters, in my head
|
Monsters, in my head
|
|
[Crooked I]
|
What if I told you I wake up screamin and swingin, dreamin that I'm fightin demons
|
Dreamin I'm swingin on heathens, competin and schemin
|
to eat every piece of my peace when I'm sleepin, need a priest and a deacon
|
I'm speakin to preachers, tell 'em I'm only at peace when I'm drinkin
|
I'm sinkin deep into hell thinkin I'm fiendin for freedom
|
Cause bein in a well isn't good for my well-bein
|
A walkin zombie I be comatose
|
Nobody loves a nobody who probably overdosed
|
in the lobby of the Omni Hotel, probably find me with an empty bottle of Oxy
|
Shakin like a earthquake's inside me or I caught the holy ghost
|
Wonder if therapy could take care of these monsters
|
before I kill more innocent people than Jared Lee Loughner!
|
They spit on me, shit on me, society kicked on me, hit on me
|
'til I was sick and exhausted, flipped and I lost it
|
off hallucinogenics, they usin a clinic, I saw Lucifer's image
|
The elephant in the room are my skeletons in the closet
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
|
Wake me up before I'm dead, don't bury me, with monsters in my head
|
Monsters in my head, with monsters in my head
|
And underneath the bed, underneath the bed
|
|
[Joell Ortiz]
|
I always see 'em out the corner of my eye
|
Scared to death to fully see 'em but I try, I just wanna ask 'em why
|
they follow me around and they reply when I hear a sound or they walk by
|
and give me a chill I can't explain, it feels so strange, is that a high?
|
My anxiety's at an all-time high
|
One second I'm good then I flip a switch and I'm thinkin I might die!
|
These dizzy spells are so annoyin
|
From the outside lookin in y'all think I'm enjoyin myself, I need help man I'm destroyin
|
every positive force, with all these negative thoughts
|
How can I find happiness when I can't remember it's lost?
|
I do so many temporary things to smile for just a minute
|
Hat low but not for style, I'm tryin to hide under my fitted
|
Dawg it's wild, you wouldn't get it!
|
Try my best to make e'rybody laugh, but that's just a disguise, I'm really timid
|
Somebody make these feelings go away, forget it, that's my problem
|
Y'all go 'head - I hate these monsters in my head
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Royce Da 5'9"]
|
Uhh, it's lights out like where the Amish stay
|
Pappy you can't tax me, I'm like Wesley Snipes in the sovereign states
|
I'm a survivin walkin oxymoron, obviously I can say
|
that I am alive and I'm tryin to die this way
|
Y'all on y'all faggot shit, I'm on my draggin my Magnum clip
|
with monsters in my head like Earvin Magic Dick
|
Niggaz (dessert) me like eatin after the entrAⓒe
|
But I'ma keep it 3000 like after the AndrAⓒ
|
I've adapted to a private life, yeah right
|
Me sayin that is like sayin I'm shootin dice on a floor made out of dice
|
I made out alive this chaotic life
|
I just figured just quit givin dick to trick bitches and stay out of fights
|
But I'm on my high snortin
|
You see this (Monster Ball) is like seein Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton
|
It's FUCKIN classic! As far as rap
|
I wish I could wrap it in plastic and stick it up your fuckin ass
|
Cause, I'm a MONSTER! [echoes]
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Joe Budden]
|
Take heed to what I'm givin you, the beefin is habitual
|
He just ridicules, wants me in critical, will appease and get rid of you
|
Maybe the only thing I seek is biblical
|
When the scars are internal when the bleedin is invisible
|
Got a friend named depression, a pill I take to relax him
|
but when he regurgitates it the aches you just couldn't fathom
|
Got a few talents, but lookin for a new challenge
|
I'll let you walk in my shoes once I find a (New Balance)
|
With faith I stand peaceful, I know e'ry man's equal
|
So I'm playin with the (Monstars) like a Space Jam sequel
|
Give 'em two choices, since they don't wanna do the least
|
They 'em they can get off my DICK, or renew the lease
|
Persevere though my bed is corrupt, expect I give up
|
when left to destruct, but I give less than a FUCK!
|
Sit back comfortably, react to what they want with me
|
| The bright side is they keep |
