Pen to Paper Lyrics by Offghost

Phantom

2024

(Pen to paper when I speak my mind)
Pen to paper when I speak my mind
Raw emotions manifests in rhymes
Tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines
(Offghost on the beat)
Said my tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines

So much things I need to say
But first things first I thank Allah for another day
Thank GOD I’m still breathing, thank GOD I’m still sane
When I was sat up in the mad house all I really felt was pain

Look in the mirror all I’m seeing is a stranger
All I’m seeing is a face I don’t remember
All them voices in my head got me feeling like Xavier
Man, I felt like I was drowning but I didn’t want a saviour

I guess I wanted to drown
Tears in my eyes as I wrote my last letters down
Like dear wife dear kids, I love you and I’m sorry
Like dear mum dear dad, I love you and I’m sorry
I just felt like this life wasn’t for me
I didn’t ask to be born can I leave in a hurry
That’s the voices in my head so loud when they’re speaking
So I tied that cloth around my whole neck to stop my…

Pen to paper when I speak my mind
Raw emotions manifests in rhymes
Tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines
Said my tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines

Few attampts but got saved each time
Man I sit back and I wonder how I lost my mind
Past traumas on the surface now
So much shit I forgot about, really gotta work it out

Kids wondering where daddy is and It’s hurting them
But had to keep em safe the voices telling me its me or them
Got me feeling like a martyr
Cause if I go then they’re safe and that’s all that really matters

But that’s a trick of the mind
Ever had your eyes open still thought you were blind
Cause what your seeing don’t make sense to you
Reality is shifting and its bending and it’s happening in front of you

See I’m just thinking bout my future now
Cherish every single breath I’m breathing now
Loosing my mind was real scary and still not in the clear
And still not in the clear but what’s clear Is the love for me

Pen to paper when I speak my mind
Raw emotions manifests in rhymes
Tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines
Said my tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines
Pen to paper when I speak my mind
Raw emotions manifests in rhymes
Tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines
Said my tears don’t fall but they’re in these lines
(Pen to paper when I speak my mind)
(Raw emotions manifests in rhymes)
