Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dance upon my dick just like the diamonds on my chain
I wanna take you Tiffany can you pick a date?
Tonight the inner monster in me is coming out to play
You can make the right decision with the wrong one
Tonight I'm tryna fuck you with no condom, on
Your past experience has really been a long one
And you think I'm just another wrong'un, wrong
You're such a good girl you don't start no problems, na
Tonight's the night, you and number 29
I figure out the drugs they help they probably saved the day
I figured out the drip expensive it don't numb the pain
Just sent a text I feel alone you know I feel a way
Girl I'm really tryna change, I pop a perc I waste my day
Baby take a pill but can you manage it?
Dick up in your belly can you handle it?
Baby take a pill but can you manage it?
Dick up in your belly can you handle it?
I said tonight's the night I don't wanna feel pain
Dance upon my dick just like the diamonds on my chain
I wanna take you Tiffany can you pick a date?
Tonight the inner monster in me is coming out to play
You can make the right decision with the wrong one
Tonight I'm tryna fuck you with no condom, on
Your past experience has really been a long one
And you think I'm just another wrong'un, wrong
I know you feel at times the world is all against you
You're such a good girl you don't start no problems, nah
Tonight's the night, you and number 29
The lyrics to D. Grant's song "The Monster" are a prime example of the misogyny and objectification of women that is prevalent in modern-day hip-hop. The song is about a man who is trying to convince a woman - referred to only as Tiffany - to sleep with him. He encourages her to make the wrong decision with the wrong guy, and brags about the fact that he wants to have sex with her without a condom. He also acknowledges that Tiffany has had bad experiences with men in the past, but does not seem to care about her feelings or well-being.
The lines "I figure out the drugs they help they probably saved the day / I figured out the drip expensive it don't numb the pain" suggest that the man may be using substances to cope with his own emotional pain. He admits that he feels alone and wants to change, but seems to rely on drugs and sex to fill the void. The repetition of the line "Baby take a pill but can you manage it? / Dick up in your belly can you handle it?" reinforces the idea that the man sees women as little more than sexual objects.
Overall, the lyrics to "The Monster" are disturbing and disrespectful. They perpetuate harmful stereotypes about women and promote a culture of toxic masculinity. It is important for artists and listeners alike to recognize the impact that this type of music can have on our society and work towards creating a more inclusive and respectful hip-hop culture.
