[00:34.128]I'm friends with the monster
[00:36.200]That's under my bed
[00:38.330]Get along with the voices inside of my head
[00:42.623]You're trying to save me
[00:44.716]Stop holding your breath
[00:46.934]And you think I'm crazy
[00:48.354]Yeah,you think I'm crazy crazy
[00:52.445]I wanted the fame,but not the cover of Newsweek
[00:54.148]Oh well,guess beggers can't be choosey
[00:55.365]Wanted to receive attention for my music
[00:56.954]Wanted to be left alone in public excuse me
[00:58.731]Been wanting my cake,And eat it too
[01:00.485]And wanting it both ways
[01:01.435]Fame made me a balloon cause my ego inflated
[01:03.996]When I blew seep and it was confusing
[01:06.326]Cause all I wanted to do
[01:07.707]is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf
[01:09.112]Abused ink,used it as a tool when I blew steam
[01:11.50]Hit the lottery oh wee
[01:12.278]With what I gave up to get was bittersweet
[01:14.114]It was like winning a huge meet
[01:19.15]Ironic 'cause I think
[01:19.718]I'm getting so huge I need a shrink
[01:21.286]I'm beginning to lose sleep
[01:22.185]one sheep,two sheep
[01:23.33]Going cuckoo and cookey as Kool Keith
[01:24.355]But I'm actually weirder than you think
[01:25.628]Cause I'm...
[01:26.433]I'm friends with the monster
[01:28.300]That's under my bed
[01:30.460]Get along with the voices inside of my head
[01:34.888]You're trying to save me
[01:36.706]Stop holding your breath
[01:39.394]And you think I'm crazy
[01:41.179]Yeah,you think I'm crazy
[01:42.886]Well,that's nothing

[01:54.771]oh oh oh oh
[01:59.241]oh oh
[02:01.841]Now I ain't much of a poet
[02:03.57]But I know somebody once
[02:03.881]told me to seize the moment
[02:05.197]And don't squander it
[02:05.914]Cause you never know
[02:07.433]when it could all be over
[02:10.305]Tomorrow so I keep conjuring
[02:11.153]Sometimes I wonder
[02:11.698]where these thoughts spawn from
[02:12.522]Yeah,ponder it,do you want this?
[02:13.737]there's no wonder you're losing your mind
[02:14.916]the way you're wandering?
[02:15.606]I think you've been
[02:16.297]wandering off down yonder
[02:17.00]and stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderen
[02:17.863]Cause I needed an interventionist
[02:18.745]to intervene between me
[02:19.465]and this monster
[02:20.04]And save me from myself
[02:21.131]and all this conflict
[02:21.858]Cause the very thing that I love
[02:23.173]is killing me and I can't conquer it
[02:24.768]My OCD is conking me in the head
[02:26.224]Keep knocking,nobody's home,
[02:26.900]I'm sleepwalking
[02:27.253]I'm just relaying what the voice
[02:28.241]in my head saying
[02:28.888]Don't shoot the messenger,
[02:29.555]I'm just friends with the...

[03:13.825]One day that,I'd walk amongst you
[03:15.161]a regular civilian
[03:15.941]But,until then,
[03:16.497]drums get killed a
[03:17.266]nd I'm Coming straight at
[03:24.740]Emcees,blood get spilled and I
[03:25.720]Take it back to the days that,
[03:26.916]I get on a Dre track
[03:27.980]Give every kid who got played at
[03:29.247]Pumped the feeling
[03:29.781]and sh*t to say back
[03:30.698]To the kids who played 'em
