Ghostpoet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh no no no
Life's too short so I've got to make haste and
And I don't want to get old and be a waste, man
No these new shoes need pace, man
Break this ball and chain round my waste, man
Please give me the strength to go all the way
And negative vibes butterfly away
I'm at that age I ain't come to play
I'm here to stay
Let's get relevant

Breathe it, Breathe it in
Maybe it just ain't my day today
Got to take stock and just start again, start again, start again

Working in the job right
It's alright, it's like, it's like
Old-aged pensioners with stories and white lies
Who moan moan moan moan
About the points they haven't got
And I can't hear you
Might have fallen on fur ears
And scribbling my thoughts away
Clocking time away
[?]
Big dreams and hideaways
And wasting my life away
Or is this a stepping stone
And I plan to find out
Some folk will never know

Take a deep breath
And live life a little bit
Don't be afraid
It won't hurt a little bit
Take a deep breath
And live life a little bit
Don't be afraid
It won't hurt a little bit
Take a deep breath
And live life a little bit
Don't be afraid
It won't hurt a little bit
Just take a deep breath
Take a deep breath
Take a deep breath

So what should I do?
Where should I navigate?
A finger in the wind
Checking stars for the pathways
Mind over fear we're smoking far-east cigarattes
And I ain't living yet so I need to breathe more
Take in all the good times and blow out the negatives
Forgive my old foes, yeah we all make mistakes




Think I'll be alright, got a head on my shoulders
I could chat all night and confess til all is over, just...

Pardoning one's previous enemies and acknowledging that everyone errs

Believing that everything will be fine; being a sensible person


I could chat all night and confess til all is over, just...
I could talk for hours and reveal everything until it is all out, but...
