Crash 'n Learn
Ghostemane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy) hold up

Wait a minute
Do I gotta say whatever you want me to say?
Wait a minute, wait
What do you really want me to say to
You when you're literally in the middle
Of you telling me what to think?
Telling me what to be
(Don't even think about looking
In my vicinity)
Rawrgh, you're telling me what to
Think what you fucking think pick it up

(Why don't you just leave me to die?)
(Why don't you just leave me to die?)

Who the fuck you talkin' to?
R-R-Really don't give a fuck, don't give
A fuck about the fame, fame
Only give a fuck if you
Remember the namе, na, name
R-R-Really don't give a fuck, don't givе
A fuck about the fame, fame




Only give a fuck if you
Remember the name, na, name

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ghostemane's song, Crash 'n Learn, are protest against the society's continuous pressure on individuals to conform to their beliefs and values. The song opens with the artist questioning the listener if they expect him to say what they want him to say, suggesting a feeling of being controlled and manipulated. He then goes on to assert that he will not allow anyone to dictate his thoughts and actions. The line "telling me what to think, what you fucking think, pick it up" suggests a rejection of society's attempt to dictate what an individual should believe. Furthermore, the line "Don't even think about looking in my vicinity" implies that the artist needs space to define himself and create his identity.


The chorus, "Why don't you just leave me to die?" is the artist's way of saying that he would rather figuratively die than conform. He then proceeds to emphasize that he is not driven by fame but rather the desire to be remembered, solidifying his commitment to authenticity.


Overall, "Crash 'n Learn" is an ode to individuality and a rebellion against the conformity that society imposes.
