Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Last night I seen a ghost floating down my hallway
Might of been tripping balls or talking outer space
Had me screaming at the wall
Like the ghost of spades
Had me jumping out a window with my backward face
Had me laughing like possessed Exorcist in the day
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Last night I seen a ghost floating down my hallway
Might of been tripping balls or talking outer space
Had me screaming at the wall
Like the ghost of spades
Had me jumping out a window with my backward face
Had me laughing like possessed Exorcist in the day
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Aye, yo we smoking on the reefer
We toking on some cheeba
We rolling up the dro just like Wiz Khalifa
We was quarantined for weeks, but we still been losing sleep
Cause we was up all night, ducking shots from the demons
I've been losing my mind, packing bowls of the pine
Just rolled up 2 smoke em' both at a time, Hah do you feel me I'm just living my life
But these fucking ghost's they do the most and most of em' lie shit
All you suckers waiting for me to just drown and go fail
It'll be a cold day up in hell before that happens
Any shit you talking, you'll get beat dawg that ain't rapping
You quick to cop a plea off the top of the dome, no capping
7 In your chest, have you kneeling feeling like Kaepernick
I crucify your hero, I swear my religions Catholic, Amen
For anybody trying to play nice guy, when they acting
No high fives, I'm leaving blood shot eyes when I'm snapping
I wrestle to stay sane, like angle we ain't playing
I'll rip and go like I'm Kurt, so I don't Kurt Cobain
I'm not a gangster but talking threats, I don't play those games
You so much as step and punch deranged, and imma break yo face
Any rapper step against me
I'm swinging like I'm Jack Dempsey
Play that, Biggie give me the loot for anything thing that I do
We set flames to this booth, yo T.y tell them the truth
Last night I seen a ghost floating, hoping, coats of red down the hallway
Not the shining based Stanley Kubrick
More like Stephen kings
See this paranormal face lift, Fucked the whole world, we left it on the cut
And conquered what we saw
Ayce and B.Goode represent, Y'all fuckers have been told
All this game has been sold, he hit you with a fee less than 40%
Pay your rent get the money, pay your bills get sex
But please forget the exorcist
That bitch a hypno mess
Preacher preacher play the world, stealing all the money
The preacher, preacher kill the world
Gonna leave them hungry, run and run and leave them hungry
Last night I seen a ghost floating down my hallway
Might of been tripping balls or talking outer space
Had me screaming at the wall
Like the ghost of spades
Had me jumping out a window with my backward face
Had me laughing like possessed Exorcist in the day
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid




Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid
Don't throw up, you won't smoke or you won't get paid

Overall Meaning

The song "Day Day" by Be Why is a dark and eerie track that explores themes of insanity, drug use, and the paranormal. The opening lines describe the singer seeing a ghost floating down their hallway, leading them to question whether they were hallucinating or truly experiencing something supernatural. The ghost is also referred to as the "ghost of spades," which could be a reference to the card game or a symbol for death. The imagery in this verse creates a sense of fear and confusion, as the singer's experience with the ghost has them screaming at walls and jumping out of windows.


The second verse focuses more on the drug use aspect, with the singer and their friends smoking weed to cope with their quarantine during a global pandemic. However, even with the drugs, they are still haunted by demons and ghosts that they must fend off. The lyrics suggest that the singer is struggling to maintain their sanity, as they mention "packing bowls of the pine" (a reference to marijuana) and seeing bloodshot eyes from snapping (meaning becoming angry or losing control). The verse also includes a reference to Colin Kaepernick, which could be interpreted as a political statement against police brutality.


The final verse brings back the theme of the paranormal, as the singer describes a ghost floating down their hallway again. However, it's unclear whether this is a different incident or a continuation of the first one. The verse also touches on themes of religion, greed, and hunger, with the line "The preacher, preacher kill the world, gonna leave them hungry, run and run and leave them hungry." Overall, "Day Day" is a complex and cryptic song with a lot of layers to unpack.

한 번 돌아가 보자구
yesterday day
너가 바로 소녀였을 때에
핑계만 가득했었지
미래에 대해
소망과 두려움이
내 안에 공존했을 때에
yeah yeah 그때의
난 거짓말쟁이
나를 매번 속이며
내 안엔 원하지도 않던
헛된 바램이
어느새부턴가 생겨
그걸 따라가다 보니
나보단 이 세상이
더 행복해했어
i apologize to myself
i'm sorry
내가 원하는 걸
인정하지 않아서 미안해
허나 내 무의식은 언제나
내 영이 원하는 곳으로
가게 만들었지
더 큰 꿈에 집착을 시작해
내 행복이 자각돼
아직 창대하진 않지만
내 날이 올 걸 알았네
i know ma day day
얼굴 좋아 보이지 오늘
it's my day day
너도 행복하길 바래
you make my day day
자고 일어날 때마다 새로운
my day day
i just wanna dance dance
like my birthday day
내가 자랑스럽다고 말해 baby
이제 꿈을 이뤄줄 차례
mom & daddy
shalom 모두가 나를
원할 때에
i just wanna dance dance
like my birthday day
난 선택받은 자
색다른 삶에
사는 날이 가득하네
예감이 아주 괜찮은
날씨의 하늘과
태양은 밝다 못해
아름다워 맥박은 차분해
말은 안 해도 느껴질 걸
이제 나는 어제의 날을
바라보지 않네
i don't care
지금의 나로 말하면
1 of cosmos most wanted
왜냐면 내가 중심에
굳건히 있잖아
주인공인 마냥
굴어 주인공이니깐
넌 왜 아니라고 생각해
너도 마찬가지란 말이야
이미 가졌다고
생각하고 움직여봐
믿음은 바라는 것의 실상이고
안 뵈는 것의 증거니까
니 머리 아닌
영혼이 가는 대로 가
기대하고 기다리는 자에게
비가 내리는 법이야
축복은 내가 벌린
입만큼 들어오는 거니까
순수함을 우리 모두가
절대로 잃지 않길 원해 난
너의 날은 어차피 올 테니깐
편하게 미리 너를 꺼내놔
always on my grind
늘 내가 꿈꾸던 삶을 살아
너도 봤잖아
finally i’m done
난 나를 계속 움직이게 해
너의 날들에
내 향기가 배이게
you're welcome to my day day
얼굴 좋아 보이지 오늘
it's my day day
너도 행복하길 바래
you make my day day
자고 일어날 때마다
새로운 my day day
i just wanna dance dance
like my birthday day
내가 자랑스럽다고 말해 baby
이제 꿈을 이뤄줄 차례
mom & daddy
shalom 모두가
나를 원할 때에
i just wanna dance dance
like my birth
dance like my birth
dance like my birthday day
