The Monster in Me

As the bass sent vibrations through the wheel into my hands, Kanye West’s voice flooded my car while I waited for Nicki Minaj’s familiar presence to take over. After reuniting with “Monster”, with the lyrics effortlessly leaving my mouth like muscle memory, it became a passenger in every car ride. Although my friends eventually got over their initial excitement with each listen, the aggressive beat became an unexpected companion, serving to calm my shaking knees in unfamiliar traffic as the striking duo let my busy mind rest. Now, “Monster” flows through my veins, igniting both power and tranquility.
