Monsta Woke Ft. Twista

Yeah You ever felt it That vibration in the marrow It's not a ghost It's not a memory It's the thing you kept locked Behind the rusted door in the basement of your own mind It's breathing now

The monster woke Eyes like burning embers in the dark Tearing through the silence leaving nothing but a spark It's the hunger in the chest The demon on the leash I'm the predator, the king, the beast that's never at peace Yeah, the monster woke Yeah, the monster woke Yeah, the monster woke Yeah, the monster woke

I spend a lifetime trying to bury the static Keep the movement diplomatic, but the pressure is erratic It's systematic, turning calm to automatic I'm feeling this shiver run down the spine Maybe stay up as a fine line between the divine and the grind I'm searching for signs in a world that is blind Like a dying post, the truth is a curse, the lies are a mulch Feeding the doubt until I result in a revolt Aint comin' to stay down, keep it humble, don't trip Or stumble up out the earth, let my spirit won't crumble I'm digging up fossils of a man I used to be Before they chained my ambition to a second degree Now I'm breathing fire, exhaling coal Looking for the parts to make up a soul It's cold out here, the wind whispers secrets of the law I'm paying the toll, yeah, I'm counting the cost

The monster woke Eyes like burning embers in the dark Tearing through the silence leaving nothing but a spark It's the hunger in the chest The demon on the leash I'm the predator, the king, the beast that's never at peace Yeah, the monster woke Yeah, the monster woke

It's to keep the stack tucked away in a velvet box Suppress the panic click, diplomatic, keep the mental locks But the pressure's tectonic, truly electronic My brain is a bomb and the fuse is bionics Tick, tick, tick, shiver down the spine, that's adrenaline spite Walking the razors as pedaling a rusty bite Streetlights flicker, truth is a bitter pill Lies are the fertilizers feeding the wick They told me stay in your lane, that ego mundane Better tremorce the shaking, the foundation of my brain I'm excavating fossils and unearth the beast in me Before they chain my potential to the bottom of the sea Now I'm coughing up embers, exhaling charcoal Stitching the dark into the gaps of my soul Subzero, it's spitting venom at the coast From the taxman, kid, here to collect the ghost

Pay up, the monsters out, let 'em out People wide like a blast furnace Burning through the silence, leaving ash in the carcass It's the famine in the gut, rabbit dog off the tether I'm the apex, I bring wheat percuss, storm in the Motherfucker, you're the monster's out, the hell is looming around Washing away the remnants of all of the pain It's the ribbing progression, a dark obsession Making a claim on the grand profession I see the look in their eyes when I'm a perfect, they're looking through a mirror or static glass They see the reflection, they feel the projection Of a man who's professed that it's on resurrection It's not, not just a song, it's a warning, a sign That the stars are aligning, the power is mine No more hesitation, no more debate I'm carving my path through the teeth of the fate

Breathe in the ash Breathe out the smoke The heavy chains Are starting to broke It's not a nightmare It's the reality shift I'm the mountain climber, I'm the tectonic rift

So here I stand with the world in my grip Watching the seconds and the minutes slip I'm the captain of the sinking ship Steering through the ice with a steady lip The monster is calm, the monster is calculated The urge for the glory is highly debated, but I'm saturated With the vision I created, no more waiting, the time is now I don't need to explain, I don't need to bow I just let it out, the hunger, the rage Turning the leaf on a brand new page From the dark to the light, from the wrong to the right I'm the king of the night in the heat of the fight

The monster woke Eyes like burning embers in the dark Tearing through the silence leaving nothing but a spark It's the hunger in the chest The demon on the leash I'm the predator, the king, the beast that's never at peace Yeah, the monster woke Yeah, the monster woke

I'm hittin' the speed of a bullet that's ripping the fabric of space and I'm leavin' a hole in the ozone, Flowin' like magma, I'm bringin' the heat to the concrete, I'm takin' the throne and I'm turnin' the king to a bone stone, Twista the gladiator with the terminology, I'm makin' a mockery out of your methodology, steady the strategy, look at the anatomy, Breakin' 'em down to the atom, I'm chasin' the phantom of opera, the monster is stoppin' the clock and I'm droppin' the apocalypse, Look at the way that I'm movin', I'm slicker than grease on a piston, I'm twistin' the syntax and sendin' a message to every one listenin', I'm a tornado, I'm breakin' the levee, I'm heavy, I'm steady, I'm ready to eat up the beat like a feast at the devil's own table of weaponry, I'm calculatin' the carnage, I'm harnessin' lightning and parkin' the darkness inside of the heart of the city, I'm gritty and cold, Locked in the cage but I shattered the bars with a rhythm so rapid, I'm takin' the soul of the game and I'm turnin' it gold. (Verse) Can I stand with the world in a headlock? Watching the seconds drop, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock Got another vessel, that's sickening in nice Steering through jagged teeth, rolling the dice The monster's calculated, cold and surgical Every movement measured, almost mathematical No more stalling, now I'm out of blast Shattered it, don't need your approval and never keep a mad Adopt to the light, to the fight, from the war to the fight King of the cage and the heat of the night

The monster woke Eyes like burning embers in the dark Tearing through the silence leaving nothing but a spark It's the hunger in the chest The demon on the leash I'm the predator, the king, the beast that's never at peace Yeah, the monster woke Yeah, the monster woke

It's just getting started The monster is awake And it's hungry Don't look back It's already here
