Jelly Roll, Krizz Kaliko, Tech N9ne - Creature lyrics

There's a monster under my bed
And at my window there's a dragon
I accepted the challenge
It turned me into a savage
I broke a promise to myself again
I don't know why I am so vulnerable
They try to help but I won't let them in
I guess rock bottom's where I'm comfortable
Both my feet planted when
Most people would've panicked
I embraced the storm
I found beauty in what was damaged
I'm not afraid of the boogieman
Instead, I look at him like he's a friend
There's not a monster out there in the world
That's scarier than the one that's within

There's a creature in my closet
I can hear him rumblin' 'round
The demons screamin' in the distance
Creates such a humblin' sound
The monster that's outside my window
He's like family to me now
The things that people are afraid of
Never let me down

Not a sadist, no but I'm hated so
While religious freaks say I'm
The biggest beast and that I've made it grow
When I spray this flow i created more
Creatures unlike when I heated the mic
I'm a breed of the night
But I'm tainted though
By the darkness, I'm binded
I sparked it and shined it
They find it 'cause mine is whoa
For that, they labeled me a demon seed
Want to disable N9na, see him bleed
Hinder me fatally and see them greed, no oh
(Chea)
You would not believe the creature inside me
If you deceive Khalifahs are lively
We disagree when people defy me
Or try'na take his
Whatever the fuckery taught him
You don't wanna break this you forsake his
What is sacred?
Then it's over, no matter what your faith is
I'm a creature

There's a creature in my closet
I can hear him rumblin' 'round
The demons screamin' in the distance
Creates such a humblin' sound
The monster that's outside my window
He's like family to me now
The things that people are afraid of
Never let me down

Yeah, I managed to get myself in trouble
All of this pain
Yeah, I'm down and the double dosin'
Liquor's always to blame
If I could keep myself sober
I'd keep my hands to myself
I take a shot and it's over
That's how I end up in Hell (I do)
I hope I don't pass it down to my offspring
(yeah) they get everything from their daddy
Feel like I'm addicted to all things (yeah)
Yeah, there's no reason to change
Gone too far now
And I'm stuck in my ways, back at the bar now
They said I'm a flirt and they right
(yeah) , I ain't perfect, aight? (yeah)
So when I'm thirsty and perkin' and purposely
Searchin' for somethin' it's hurtin' me so
I just get back up and go
I just back out of a show
That's how it go, I knock the back out a ho
And next night act I don't know (Okay)
I think they be laughin' at me
Hands be grabbin' at me
Feel like God let it happen to me
That'd be blasphemy
And at least it be happenin' naturally
(Okay, yeah)
I think I better let it go (yeah)
Either that or I gotta let her know
And I can't do that

There's a creature in my closet
I can hear him rumblin' 'round
The demons screamin' in the distance
Creates such a humblin' sound
The monster that's outside my window
He's like family to me now
The things that people are afraid of
Never let me down
