Hi BFamily! Hope you enjoy the Official #Monsters Music Video! This project really means a lot to me because of its message of love overcoming fear and temptation. We all face things in life that tear us down and constantly try to keep us separated from our destiny. I believe its not about the things that happen to you, but the way that you choose to respond to lifes obstacles.
Comment down below what you got out of this song and music video and thanks for watching!
[Verse 1]
Always facing temptations
God I’m trying to be patient
All these places my mind takes me
Asking what’s the point of waiting
[Pre Chorus]
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
It’s in my head all the time
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
I face it everyday
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
It’s in my head all the time
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
All of this pressure on me and I’m like
[Chorus]
All these voices in my head
Don’t know which way to go
Monsters underneath my bed
I’ve been here before
All these voices in my head
But I won’t lose control
Monsters underneath my bed
But we are not friends
[Verse 2]
Did I mention
Sway back and forth in my conscience
No direction, but I feel you’re in my presence
I get lost help me find my way
What it cost for the dreams, I’ll pay
Tug of war right here with you
What I do
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
It’s in my head all the time
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
I face it everyday
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
It’s in my head all the time
It’s in my head, it’s on my mind
All of this pressure on me and I’m like
All these voices in my head
Don’t know which way to go
Monsters underneath my bed
I’ve been here before
All these voices in my head
But I won’t lose control
Monsters underneath my bed
But we are not friends
Monsters under my bed
But they’re not gonna win
Cause I’m not gonna let ‘em in
Not alone in this conflict
Who I am is in You, who I am is in You
(repeat x2)
All these voices in my head
Don’t know which way to go
Monsters underneath my bed
I’ve been here before
All these voices in my head
But I won’t lose control
Monsters underneath my bed
But we are not friends
