The Monster - MattyBRaps.mp3

[00:00.00]There ain't a monster that's under my bed
[00:04.41]ain't friends with no voices inside of my head
[00:08.61]You're trying to shake me, stop holding your breath
[00:13.01]And you think it's crazy, yeah you think it's crazy
[00:18.09]I wanted the dream... I prayed God would use me
[00:20.22]Oh well,I guess rap can't be choosy
[00:22.67]Wanted to receive attention for my music
[00:24.79]Wanted to be an example, so excuse me
[00:27.02]For wanting my cake, and eat it too, and wanting it both ways
[00:29.53]Fame may be a balloon 'cause my haters inflated
[00:30.99]When I blew; see, and it was confusing
[00:33.27]'Cause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf
[00:36.16]Abused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam
[00:38.96](Ooh!) Be the best that I could be
[00:40.59]But with what I learned when I got it was bittersweet
[00:42.46]It was like dreaming a new dream
[00:44.03]Ironic 'cause I think I'm getting so quick I don't even think
[00:46.36]they ain't making me lose sleep, it's: one sheep, two sheep
[00:48.87]flowin' cuckoo and cooky as Kool Keith
[00:50.60]But I'm actually closer than you think because there...
[00:52.23]'Cause there ain't a monster that's under my bed
[00:56.59]ain't friends with no voices inside of my head
[01:00.99]You're trying to shake me, stop holding your breath
[01:05.30]And you think it's crazy, yeah you think it's crazy
[01:09.61]Well that's not fair
[01:12.01]oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

[01:27.79]Now I ain't much of a poet but I know somebody
[01:29.38]Once told me to seize the moment and don't squander it
[01:30.66]'Cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow
[01:34.04]So I keep pondering
[01:34.89]sometimes I wonder
[01:35.93]Where these dreams come from
[01:37.38](Yeah, ponder it, do you want that?
[01:39.07]You can never be who you want... you're just a kid Matt)

[01:52.46]'cause the very holding you back is inside ya head
[01:54.15]and as for me - I'll be doing my thing
[01:57.32]growing up, the kid that'll be the next king
