Eminem - The Monster ft. Rihanna

[Rihanna]

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

[Eminem]

I wanted the fame, but not the cover of Newsweek

Oh well, guess beggars can't be choosey

Wanted to receive attention for my music

Wanted to be left alone in public, excuse me

Been wanting my cake, and eat it too, and wanting it both ways

Fame made me a balloon cause my ego inflated

When I blew; see, it was confusing

Cause all I wanted to do is be the Bruce Lee of loose leaf

To seize the moment and don't squander it

Cause you never know when it all could be over tomorrow

So I keep conjuring,

sometimes I wonder where these thoughts spawn from

(Yeah, ponder it, you won there's no more

You losing your mind, the way it budged)

Yo-lo-lo-lo-yee-whoo

I think you've been wandering off down yonder

And stumbled onto Jeff VanVonderen

Cause I need an interventionist

[ De: http://www.dicelacancion.com/letra-the-monster-eminem ]

To intervene between me and this monster

And save me from myself and all this conflict

Cause the very thing that I love is killing me

and I can't conquer it

My OCD is conking me in the head

Keep knocking, nobody's home, I'm sleepwalking

I'm just relaying what the voice in my head's saying

Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just friends with the
