[00:00.000]Ghosts (Explicit) - Slaine
[00:02.391]Ohh
[00:04.801]This is my life this is my life
[00:18.099]Yo
[00:19.801]I always knew I was different even back at six
[00:22.148]They tied me to a pole with a rope and wrapped my wrists
[00:24.776]They punched me and kicked me and slapped me with sticks
[00:27.073]In the ribs and the kids called my daddy a b**ch
[00:29.416]Said my father's a faggot it aggravated my dealings
[00:31.990]I didn't know no better but knew I hated the feeling
[00:34.544]From laughing at me whenever they would crack jokes
[00:36.697]On my way to the store to get a pack of smokes
[00:39.213]For my nana Benson and hedges 100 with a note from my grandmother
[00:42.226]It's something she suffers from arthritis
[00:44.227]Hands stuck together drop down elbows
[00:46.570]It looked like baseball she called marshmellows
[00:48.963]I could see the silho uettes of the past hello
[00:51.593]The days back when I had those rain tap windows
[00:53.923]To peer through and just look at the world
[00:56.368]I was just a boy I never knew what would occur
[00:58.772]Blur ahead to myself as a half dead fiend
[01:01.105]F ked up in my head from what happened between
[01:03.689]With my body on the floor I'm asleep from beans
[01:06.121]My life flashed before me I peeped the scenes
[01:08.400]Yeah the ghosts talk to me in my head
[01:11.649]They said I'm already dead
[01:14.146]And I had so much blood to be shed
[01:16.493]But I can't spill it no more
[01:19.074]And I have died a thousand deaths
[01:21.539]On the ground so out of breath
[01:23.749]Yeah I've been down that flight of steps
[01:26.188]But you can't kill me no more
[01:28.217]It's a chain we all grew up with the same dreams
[01:30.554]But hit the potholes in the street and became fiends
[01:33.006]Got in fist fights every night with the same team
[01:35.709]Right around the time that jay the wood came clean
[01:37.966]I was hurt from my broken home and going crazy
[01:40.296]Rolling up coke in bones and so I maybe
[01:42.740]One these troubled youth in this modern day America
[01:45.095]Thank god I'm still alive I gotta say it's erykah
[01:47.738]Who was always by my side that's why I love her forever
[01:50.092]She knows my whole pain and all the stormy weather
[01:52.438]That I been through what I overcame and what it meant too
[01:55.049]Other people looked at me like a freak with a pencil
[01:57.356]I got enough rage for every page in my books
[01:59.736]What I done I should be in a cage with the crooks
[02:02.055]But I'm not barely by the skin of my teeth
[02:04.600]Maybe there's a reason time for me to finish this beef
[02:06.926]Yeah the ghosts talk to me in my head
[02:10.219]They said I'm already dead
[02:12.660]And I had so much blood to be shed
[02:15.033]But I can't spill it no more
[02:17.547]And I have died a thousand deaths
[02:19.993]On the ground so out of breath
[02:22.349]Yeah I've been down that flight of steps
[02:24.790]But you can't kill me no more
[02:26.790]It's the dawn of a new day and I've been given a platform
[02:29.232]All the moments in my life I got a rap for 'em
[02:31.964]I gotta tell my story bring it back for 'em
[02:34.017]Either that or I could slip away in the cracks gone
[02:36.814]You think I'd let it happen well that's wrong
[02:38.908]Who would've ever thought I would be saved by a rap song
[02:41.395]I gotta capitalize cause I'm rapping with guys
[02:43.877]That I idolized as a kid I'm revitalized
[02:46.693]Always looked at life through a writer's eyes
[02:48.651]I learned this sh*t is hard really man you either fight or die
[02:51.166]So I'm a stand up and fight that fight
[02:53.287]I'm going home broken bone and bloody tonight
[02:55.901]You motherf**kers ever look and study your life
[02:58.047]And see how fade and greyed they've made whatever you like
[03:00.762]Cause I can feel it in my f**king gut when I write
[03:03.135]This pain is sweet I needed to be cut with this knife
[03:05.333]Yeah the ghosts talk to me in my head
[03:08.713]They said I'm already dead
[03:11.172]And I had so much blood to be shed
[03:13.698]But I can't spill it no more
[03:16.154]And I have died a thousand deaths
[03:18.635]On the ground so out of breath
[03:21.061]Yeah I've been down that flight of steps
[03:23.437]But you can't kill me no more
