Monstar
Usher Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Raymond versus Raymond

There's three sides to every story
There's one side, there's the other
And then there's the truth

Captivating, perfection, innovator
Seductive, superstar, music, unparalleled, sex, world renown
Dance, tempo, spotlight, passionate, terrible

You, are, what, we, say, you, are
Monstar
Black heart

Sound, sound, sound
Everything that's on my mind I just
I gotta let go
Allez vient on y vas
I hope you can handle it
Vient on y vas

Feel my heartbeat, ah
Mon-star
Yeah, close your eyes

Hey, look what you made me do babe, say you know me
Tell you want all of me, and then you got the other side
You got some nerve baby
Make it so bad
You so serious
Wouldn't just have to fall

Don't you, don't you tell me
Tell me that things get to you without all of that attitude
I feel like you might be the one, aight babe
You got me so excited baby

Girl if you lonely
And you're longing for a lover you know I'll be
I'll be here all night
I'm right above you
You don't have to look no further you know I'll be
I'll be here all night

Monstar
(Celebrating time)
Tell me how deep you want me to go
(I'm back celebrating life)
I'm gonna be your baby yeah
I wanna be up in your bedroom, just all for one night
I'll be the pleasure player lover you like

Redefining roundly every time we lay
Every time we go (we go deeper)
She said she wanna bring out the beast
But she can't tame it, tame it (ha ha)
Won't let you pull something off
B-b-bang I'm a shoot it like a convict

Girl if you lonely
And you're longing for a lover
You know I'll be, I'll be here all night

I'm right above you
You don't have to look no further you know I'll be
I'll be, here all night

Monstar
(Celebrating time)
Tell me how deep you want me to go
(I'm back celebrating life)
I'm gonna be your baby yeah
I wanna be up in your bedroom, just all for one night
I'll be the pleasure player lover you like

Monstar
(Celebrating time)
Tell me how deep you want me to go
(I'm back celebrating life)
I'm gonna be your baby yeah
I wanna be up in your bedroom, just all for one night
I'll be the pleasure player lover you like

Girl if you lonely
And you're longing for a lover
You know I'll be, I'll be here all night

Monstar
(Celebrating time)
Tell me how deep you want me to go
(I'm back celebrating life)
I'm gonna be your baby yeah
I wanna be up in your bedroom, just all for one night
I'll be the pleasure player lover you like

Monstar
(Celebrating time)
(I'm back celebrating life)
Make it rain
I wanna be up in your bedroom, just all for one night
I'll be the pleasure player lover you like
It's a celebration
(I'm back celebrating life)
