Ghost Lyrics by Jafaris

Stride

2019

[Verse 1]
He never got to finish what he started here
He was out to change the world but he forgot himself
A couple burdens and addictions that he struggled with
He was friends with everybody, that was part of it
Too many parts to split
He wished he was a superhero so he altered it
He was good at givin' glory to alter this
More than passion for the music, it was purpose to him
More than accolades and money, it was therapeutic
Singin' 'bout a lot of things, he wouldn't speak of one light
How he makes his mama cry 'cause he ain't never home or
How his girl would be on edge when he not show he care
He was there but never there like he went really in himself

[Pre-Chorus]
I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know
I put everythin' I own down for him
I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know
I put everythin' I own down for him

[Chorus]
He was gone too soon
I lost a good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah, yeah
He was gone too soon
Then I realised I'm talkin' about my own ghost, yeah, yeah
He was gone too soon
I lost a good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah, yeah
He was gone too soon
Then I realised I'm talkin' about my own ghost

[Verse 2]
In and out of his relationship with God and Jesus
Lukewarm and looked more like he just got religious
The best at givin' advice but never takin' it with him
The best at listenin' but never really paid attention
He was good for somethin', never passed a judgement
He gave everyone attention, never made assumptions
When he stood up he made sure that he would stand for somethin'
Expressed himself with a mode of language, left people wonderin'
All he urged for was people to find peace or somethin'
'Cause he was peace or somethin'
Trying to build a world around him just so he could leave 'em somethin'
Open doors would guide a course but such a broken chord
Always rational but never satisfied

[Pre-Chorus]
I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know
I put everything I own down for him
I love this brother like my own, that's on everyone I know
I put everything I own down for him

[Interlude]
I wish I had another chance
Already given twenty three, the burn is over third degree
I wish I had another chance
'Cause I just wanna dance and go through with all my plans
I wish I had another chance
Already given twenty three, the burn is over third degree
I wish I had another chance
'Cause I just wanna dance and go through with all my plans

[Chorus]
He was gone too soon
I lost a good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah, yeah
He was gone too soon
Then I realised I'm talkin' about my own ghost, yeah, yeah
He was gone too soon
I lost a good brother, Lord save his soul, yeah, yeah
He was gone too soon
Then I realised I'm talkin' about my own ghost

[Outro]
Don't question me
Don't question me
Don't question me
