Ghost
Transcending Life's Ghostly Journey
Lyrics
Some say we’re goin’ fast through life
Expressing the perception that life is moving swiftly.
But they don’t really know that feeling in your heart
Challenging the understanding of others about the deep emotional experiences one goes through.
Gotta make it worth it 'til you die
Highlighting the importance of making life meaningful until its end.
We’re proud enough to never say they are right
Asserting pride in not conforming to others' opinions.
No one’s been hitting, I feel it
Suggesting a lack of external influence or impact on personal emotions.
Popping all the things they could to keep dreaming
Describing efforts to stay optimistic and pursue dreams despite challenges.
Feelin’ lonely but don’t really feel a thing
Feeling a sense of loneliness without a clear emotional response.
You’re trying to show yourself but no one can see
Struggling to be understood or noticed by others.
I have been there before between the ashes
Referencing a past experience of hardship or destruction.
And I know how it hurts to be a ghost when you’re not dead
Expressing the emotional pain of feeling like a ghost, detached from the living world.
I’m starting to see why I feel like this
Reflecting on the reasons for the current emotional state.
I’ve been through some hard shit but
Acknowledging past difficulties without succumbing to them.
haven’t disappeared
Emphasizing resilience and not disappearing despite challenges.
Now I know
Indicating a newfound understanding or clarity.
Ah If I’m a ghost it’s only ‘cause I transcend this world
Positing that being a "ghost" is a result of transcending the limitations of the worldly existence.
So tell them life is about the ride
Advising to communicate that life is about the journey, not just the destination.
We’re gonna get there in our own time
Expressing confidence in achieving goals in one's own time.
There’s no way we could leave it all behind
Rejecting the idea of abandoning everything from the past.
Just get the pressure and turn it into something to shine
Encouraging turning pressure into something positive and impactful.
No one’s been living or feeling
Describing a lack of genuine living or experiencing life.
The fear of trying has been taking their dreams away
Pointing out the detrimental impact of fear on pursuing dreams.
Afraid of dying they pretend there’s nothing to say
Observing the tendency to avoid discussing the inevitability of death.
So they just fall in line
Describing conformity and submission to societal expectations.
I have been there before between the ashes
Reiterating a past experience of hardship or destruction.
And I know how it hurts to be a ghost when you’re not dead
Re-emphasizing the emotional pain of feeling like a ghost.
I’m starting to see why I feel like this
Continuing to explore the reasons for the current emotional state.
I’ve been through some hard shit but haven’t disappeared
Reaffirming resilience and not succumbing to challenges.
Now I know
Reiterating a newfound understanding or clarity.
Ah If I’m a ghost it’s only ‘cause I transcend this world
Restating that being a "ghost" is a result of transcending worldly limitations.
