GHOST
Jaden Smith Feat. Christian Rich Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You spent too much cash
Screw your Goyard bags
I knew that you wouldn't last
I'm in physics class
I knew that you wouldn't ask
She got too much (shh, what?)
What I'm finna do with all that
Hunnid 20 on the dash, I hope that I never crash (dope)
MSFTS on the map, drop hits that's that
ยฟTeo? hit me with the pass, swish
Niggas wish I never rapped (never)
Play this shit in the club for me, for me, for me (for me)
'Cause if you in there
Then I'll be the one that you never see
Like jeez, let me go put on my cleats
The way that I get up and run through the streets
Paris like bon appรฉtit
They saw us and went to go call the police, yeah, damn
Just put a hydrogen whip on the lease, yeah
Tryna make sure that I leave a good world for my niece
Ayy, that's just me (that's just me!)
We don't need you on the team, we pay too many fees
They told me travel light, we ain't going overseas
It's just one night I'ma bring the whole fleet with me
Play this shit in the club for me, for me, for me (for me)
'Cause if you in there,
Then I'll be the one you never see
I'm ghost
Iller than most (iller than most)
I've been behind the scenes, I've been watching the ropes
She put her hand on my neck, she on the slopes, ice (ice)
Why you put so much space in the flow?
(Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go)
When I wanna grow I listen to Hov, take notes
Look at the case, close it
Open the doors, look at my neck, look at my wrist frozen
Look at my pants dripping, swag, know that you stole it
Play this shit in the club for me, uh
If you in there, uh
Nigga, I'm ghost
In "GHOST," Jaden Smith and Christian Rich express their disregard for materialistic possessions and societal expectations. Jaden claims to have left those who prioritize money and luxury behind, with lines like "You spent too much cash" and "Screw your Goyard bags." He also boasts about his academic excellence ("I'm in physics class") and his connections to notable figures like Elon Musk. However, despite his confidence, Jaden also feels misunderstood, expressing a desire to be seen and heard in the club amongst the masses ("Play this shit in the club for me").
As Jaden's verse ends, the chorus repeats "I'm ghost," which can be interpreted in a few ways. It could represent Jaden's desire to remain unnoticed, his belief that material possessions are meaningless ghosts, or his sense of detachment from societal expectations. Either way, the repetition emphasizes the theme of disconnection from the mainstream and the desire to be seen as "iller than most."
Christian Rich's verse adds to the themes of the song, with imagery of skiing and notes on hip hop influences like Jay-Z. Overall, "GHOST" encourages listeners to disregard societal expectations and material possessions in pursuit of individuality and creativity.
