- Monster LyricsTime it makes you old, experience
Makes you wise.
And it's only a fool who judges life by
What he sees in other people's eyes.
The decisions that you cast effect
The outcome of your game the
Only person who's gonna think about
You is the one that's standin' in your shoes
Live by the sword die by the wword
I'm a weapon of my set.
The only family that I've ever known
Is the gun that's by my side
Little big man he's not alone
Now, he's all grown up his stories
Written all along these city walls.
Found unity, he's gained a brotherhood
As they gather to beat you down
The fists reign hard, the fightin'
Never stops.
There's no mercy in this town
And I don't know when it's gonna' end for me
This side of town is all I know
It's all I see
If I go on like this I'm gonna'
End it all one day
It's my destiny it's my reality
It's society.
I wear colors proud but stare
Me down
I've got a million scars to prove
My pain
You think you know who I am
Try walking a mile in my shoes.
Quick on the draw
Never walk alone
Know your enemy
Never be afraid, it's what they always say
Till they come around for you.
Ghetto birds light the evening
Sky as the sun begins to fall
Another night he'll spend in this
Jungle with his back up against the wall
Makes you wise.
And it's only a fool who judges life by
What he sees in other people's eyes.
The decisions that you cast effect
The outcome of your game the
Only person who's gonna think about
You is the one that's standin' in your shoes
Live by the sword die by the wword
I'm a weapon of my set.
The only family that I've ever known
Is the gun that's by my side
Little big man he's not alone
Now, he's all grown up his stories
Written all along these city walls.
Found unity, he's gained a brotherhood
As they gather to beat you down
The fists reign hard, the fightin'
Never stops.
There's no mercy in this town
This side of town is all I know
It's all I see
If I go on like this I'm gonna'
End it all one day
It's my destiny it's my reality
It's society.
I wear colors proud but stare
Me down
I've got a million scars to prove
My pain
You think you know who I am
Try walking a mile in my shoes.
Quick on the draw
Never walk alone
Know your enemy
Never be afraid, it's what they always say
Till they come around for you.
Ghetto birds light the evening
Sky as the sun begins to fall
Another night he'll spend in this
Jungle with his back up against the wall
Facts about Monster
✔️

✔️
When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, among urban life realities in the city, 'Monster' by Strung Out is a hard-hitting and unforgiving song that doesn't shy away from difficult metaphors. They are like 'ghetto bird' and 'jungle.' The song, however, reveals that togetherness along with the inner awareness are the keys to handling the persistent sorrows. The lyrics in Monster are more or less exerting the same meaning through the use of different words i.e. angst, social commentary, anger, empowerment and reflection. On the other hand, the same song points out through its lyrics the issues of maturity and wisdom, individualism and personal responsibility, violence and survival, unity and brotherhood, desperation and fate, defiance and identity, vigilance and courage and urban struggle and resilience as well. There are also references of violence, weaponry, and strong language in the lyrics that may not be appropriate for kids. Such an environment of urban hardship in addition to language that is explicit may call for a PG-13 rating.
