[00:17.23] I wanted the fame but not the cover of Newsweek

[00:19.99] Oh well, guess beggars can't be choosey

[00:21.97] Wanted to receive attention for my music

[00:24.23] Wanted to be left alone in public, excuse me

[00:26.73] For wantin' my cake, and eat it too, and wantin' it both ways

[00:28.98] Fame made me a balloon ‘cause my ego inflated

[00:31.23] When I blew, see, but it was confusing

[00:32.73] ‘Cause all I wanted to do's be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf

[00:35.24] Abused ink, used it as a tool when I blew steam

[00:37.97] Ooh! Hit the lottery, ooh-wee!

[00:39.98] But with what I gave up to get it was bittersweet

[00:42.22] It was like winnin' a used mink

[00:43.98] Ironic ‘cause I think I'm gettin' so huge I need a shrink

[00:46.23] I'm beginnin' to lose sleep: one sheep, two sheep

[00:48.22] Going coo-coo and kooky as Kool Keith

[00:49.48] But I'm actually weirder than you think, ‘cause I'm

[00:52.21] I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed

[00:55.97] Get along with the voices inside of my head

[01:00.48] You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath

[01:04.73] And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

[01:09.23] Well, that's nothin' (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[01:12.73] (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[01:18.23] Well, that's nothin' (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[01:21.47] (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[01:25.73] Now, I ain't much of a poet

[01:28.48] But I know somebody once told me to seize the moment

[01:30.24] And don't squander it

[01:31.48] ‘Cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow

[01:33.24] So I keep conjurin'

[01:34.73] Sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from

[01:36.72] Yeah, ponderin' will do you wonders

[01:37.97] No wonder you're losing your mind, the way it wanders

[01:39.98] Yodel-odel-ay-hee-hoo!

[01:41.73] I think it went wanderin' off down yonder

[01:43.48] And stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderen

[01:45.47] ‘Cause I need an interventionist

[01:47.23] To intervene between me and this monster

[01:49.48] And save me from myself and all this conflict

[01:51.48] ‘Cause the very thing that I love's killing me

[01:53.22] And I can't conquer it

[01:54.24] My OCD is conkin' me in the head, keep knockin'

[01:56.73] Nobody's home, I'm sleepwalkin'

[01:58.47] I'm just relayin' what the voice in my head's sayin'

[02:00.72] Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with the

[02:02.48] I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed

[02:05.74] Get along with the voices inside of my head

[02:10.23] You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath

[02:14.73] And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

[02:19.22] Well, that's nothin' (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[02:22.73] (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[02:28.22] Well, that's nothin' (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[02:30.98] (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[02:36.98] Call me crazy, but I have this vision

[02:38.49] One day that I'll walk amongst you a regular civilian

[02:41.73] But until then, drums get killed and

[02:43.73] I'm comin' straight at MC's, blood gets spilled and

[02:46.23] I'll take it back to the days that I'd get on a Dre track

[02:48.23] Give every kid who got played that pumped-up feelin'

[02:50.72] And shit to say back to the kids who played him

[02:52.73] I ain't here to save the fuckin' children

[02:54.48] But if one kid out of a hundred million

[02:56.22] Who are going through a struggle feels it

[02:58.48] And relates, that's great, it's payback, Russell Wilson

[03:00.72] Falling way back in the draft

[03:02.73] Turn nothin' into somethin', still can

[03:04.23] Make that, straw into gold chump, I will spin

[03:06.22] Rumpelstiltskin in a haystack

[03:08.23] Maybe I need a straight jacket, face facts

[03:10.98] I am nuts for real, but I'm okay with that

[03:12.98] It's nothin', I'm still friends with the

[03:14.73] I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed

[03:18.23] Get along with the voices inside of my head

[03:22.48] You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath

[03:27.72] And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

[03:31.73] I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed

[03:35.22] Get along with the voices inside of my head

[03:39.73] You're tryin' to save me, stop holdin' your breath

[03:44.24] And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

[03:49.23] Well, that's nothin' (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[03:51.73] (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[03:56.98] Well, that's nothin' (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

[04:00.98] (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
