Kid Cudi - Ghost Lyrics






Yeah, woah-woah, oh
Yeah, woah-woah, haha
Yeah
My name is Scott Mescudi, yeah
Yeah

Gotta get it through my thick head
I was so close to being dead, yeah
Life, live it, with nobody's help tips
Man, I'm just walking without being led
See the world is so crazy and filled with such risk and man
I just know I gotta dodge them, yeah
The beginning is always followed by an end
In the in-between time I'm not runnin' or hidin'

See things do come around
And make sense eventually
Things do come around
But some things trouble me

The people I've met and the places I've been
Are all what make me the man I so proudly am
But I wanna know one thing
When did I become a ghost?
I'm most confused about the world I live in
You think that I'm lonely, well I probably am
One thing that still gets me
When did I become a ghost?
Yeah

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, woah-woah, haha, yay
Yeah, whoa, whoa-whoa, yoo

Tried to fight it, but soon that gave in
Went down a road with no lights on
Can't describe it, and you don't move like them
You become their worst nightmare
You remember the things that your parents had said and well
Rather find out the hard way
You should tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend
I keep with my stroll, I'm not runnin' or hidin'

See things do come around
And make sense eventually
Things do come around
But some things still trouble me

The people I've met and the places I've been
Are all what make me the man I so proudly am
But I wanna know one thing
When did I become a ghost?
I'm most confused about the world I live in
You think that I'm lonely, well I probably am
One thing that still gets me
When did I become a ghost?
Yeah

Na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, woah-woah
Yeah, woah-woah

Oh-oh-oh
I hope they understand that I really understand that
They don't understand
I hope they understand that I really understand that
They don't understand
I really understand that they
I really think I, umm
I hope they understand that I really understand that
They don't understand
Whow
Listen to me
Whow-whow-whow
Listen to me
Whow-whow-whow

    About this song

  7. G.... M....

    Man he's beautiful

  8. S.... D....

    Today I went to the forest and spent around 15 minutes gambling with my life as I put my head in a noose and tried to drop, I couldn't do it because I know how much it will hurt my family. Scott Mescudi's songs are one of the only things that gives me a little happiness in my pathetic life. Happiness is the most important thing in life, nothing else.

  9. T.... ....

    I wish someone told me popularity doesn’t get you real friends. It’s sad that after high school you see your real friends. CUDI got me through the tough times before it all and after. Still listening in 2020.

  10. S.... F....

    Yeaaaaaaaah whoaa whoaaaaaaaa

  11. I.... S....

    Reminds me of bone thugs and harmony and wiz khalifa

  12. D.... L....

    Imma Ghost

  14. B.... ....

    This song is still my all time favorite song and it's 2019

  15. M.... K....

I feel his pain cause I'm a addict I been a addict for 12 years and over the years ive lost my family went to prison i came home to nothing but myself and me being in there opened my eyes and I noticed I became a ghost of my old self I had to start all over again from scratch.. I'm a new person now and I won't let past habits effect my reincarnation im just taking my new found life One Day At a Time 💯

    M.... K....

  22. M.... A....

    # adorable

  23. M.... A....

    I love this song

  24. M.... A....

    This reminds me of my childhood and my bff would listen to this song

  25. J.... S....

    I will tell you how this artist and a lot of other have saved my life too. Not to copy or anything of the sort. But there are certain songs that sings to the soul of what you and your mind and body are feeling. I have CPTSD I was tortured many times where I could of easily died. I became homeless and on the CIA watchlist just for using my 1st amendment right and speaking my mind on social media. When I was homeless I was attacked and robbed 3 times and also someone warmed up tea for 5 minutes then tried to through it on my face. I move and it gave me third degree burns on my neck chest and ear. I know pain and thee only thing most days are me listening to songs that relate to the pain I been through all my life.

  26. M.... 5....

    “I hope they Understand that I really understand that they Don’t Understand “

  27. k.... i....

    i became a ghost when i started working

    k.... i....

    @Supreme KingOwl 😪

  28. B.... K....

    SCOTT NASTY

  29. C.... C....

    People may view this song as themselves as being a ghost or non relevant. thats fine. to me is more like when did i become so reliant on sin? Like when I was a child I never wanted to be like the adults aka vulgar or substance use, but here I am. When did I become a Ghost? This song is a good boost to remind me of my "true" self. My innocent self that wasnt embarrassed by anything, especially being wholesome. Idk fam, pretty buzzed rn. Stay safe and do better ill try to do the same. Thank God for everything.

  30. L.... B....

    Reading all those comments make me feel like we should all come together in one big room of common loneliness to stop feeling bad about being different and not social, because we are, just in more spiritual and sense needing way. Please catch the positive vibes I'm sending to y'all. Cudi is true artist thanks for your music man.

  31. J.... J....

    This whole album shaped me.

  32. E.... B....

    If you’re reading this in 2019 for whatever reason... understand things get better. I love you.

  33. D.... R....

    3:20 AM just fucking wondering when.

  34. g.... s....

  38. M.... A....

    I've gone ghost for 14 years at one point in time. Dropped out of school when I was 16 years old. This song kept playing in my head when it first came out. Speaks volumes.

  39. J.... K....

    H.... ....

    k.... ....

    Best line in the song

  45. g.... ....

    damn thought i related to this before..now look at me lol who would of thought.

  46. T.... L....

    I have always been a ghost 🤤😴😓😭🙃

  47. S.... D....

    If suicide is an option to you, don't be selfish. Your suffering will not end, it will pass to those that care about you.

  48. D.... F....

    and make sense eventualLY 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

  49. X.... L....

    Felt everything

  50. k.... ....

    is the instrumental sampled from anywhere?

  51. l.... p....

    Izack stay da same. Cudi. Leg

  52. A.... c....

    I feel like a ghost almost everyday due to the fact that I am super depressed. My father seems to only support me when it supports him. I can barely tell him shit due to any time I do he just wants me to dtart exercising more which does absolutely nothing. The only people i feel like im not dead too is my friends. Who openly support me and are fucked up like me.

  53. O.... V....

    I want to blast to my fucking head off I can’t live being sober

  54. L.... m....

    r.i.p to the person i used to be 😞 i miss that dude

  55. .... ....

    Clouds and darkness surround the Throne

  56. g.... ....

    Yes i am

  57. M.... L....

    I managed to ghost my whole life and I was completely unaware till march cuz I was living a life without loneliness. Im 18 since august. Thats nice

  58. T.... S....

    On this trip again

  59. P.... D....

    Sometimes things don't get better. In those cases we must leave what we find comfort in to find those happy energies again.

  60. S.... ....

    “I hope they understand, that I really understand, that they don’t understand.”

    I FELT THIS!

    S.... ....

    Superproman2 that part is me

  61. T.... L....

    I hope they understand
    That I really understand, that,
    They don't understand.


    I hope they understand
    That I really understand, that,
    They don't understand.


    I really understand that they,
    I really think I,
    um,
    I hope they understand
    That I really understand, that,
    They don't understand.


    Woah.

  62. c.... b....

    One of my favorite songs <3

  63. S.... R....

    3:47 understand #StarRealm26

  64. k.... r....

    My life is fcked and i am alone as shit

    k.... r....

    While you are alive, you have options. Things can get better. Stay strong brother.

    k.... r....

    Know that you are never alone, for I am here. I have ears and for what reason, but to listen.

    k.... r....

    @Bana Madr thank u for this man i really need this

  65. N.... 1....

  66. W.... ....

    Probably Cudi's deepest song. Cuts like a knife.

  67. C.... G....

    Who's here in 2019?!. Lifes hard man. I wanna give up. But just cant. I'm about out of food. No job and finna go homeless soon. But I cant give up man. I cant

    C.... G....

    remember everything is temporary. things well get change for in time

  68. C.... ....

    YEAAH WAAAUUWAAAA

  69. I.... ....

    everytime i listen to Cudi’s songs it just makes me shed tears after tears.

  70. h.... m....

    Still here nine years later still a sad song but very necessary

  71. 1.... ....

    I really understand that they don't understand.

  72. D.... P....

    I’m on a CUDI spree . Reminding me of my HS days . No teacher believed in me ..they gave up on me way too quick and now I have a beautiful family great job and more to come ! Kid Cudi one of my favorite artists of all time thank you !

  73. G.... B....

    So many haters must be good

  74. V.... ....

    Any y’all niggas still here ?

  75. C.... C....

    When I first heard dis I realized I been ahh ghost my whole life 😢😢😢👻👻

  76. M.... D....

    This song is so many things to so many different people. Takes me back to wrecking my car into the only Boulder on the side of a canyon. 'was so close to being dead' and my life in the months after the crash. If that rock wasn't there I would absolutely be dead. Really puts things into perspective

  77. s.... u....

    I had this album in my Xbox 360 so every time I would play a game I would turn on this music specifically Call of Duty ghosts or Gotham Impostors

  78. K.... B....

    Been listening since *11 what a god (kudgang)

    [Intro]
    Yeah, woah-woah, oh
    Yeah, woah-woah
    Haha, yeah
    My name is Scott Mescudi, yeah

    [Verse 1]
    Gotta get it through my thick head
    I was so close to being dead, yeah
    Life, live it, with nobody's help tips
    Man, I'm just walking without being led
    See the world is so crazy and filled with such risk
    And man, I just know I gotta dodge them, yeah
    The beginning is always followed by an end
    In the in-between time I'm not running or hiding

    [Pre-Hook]
    See things do come around
    And make sense eventually
    Things do come around
    But some things trouble me

    [Hook]
    The people I've met, and the places I've been
    Are all what make me the man I so proudly am
    But I wanna know one thing, when did I become a ghost?
    I'm mostly confused about the world I lived in
    You think that I'm lonely, well I probably am

    [Verse 2]
    Tried to fight it, but soon that gave in
    Went down a road with no lights on
    Can't describe it, and you don't move like them
    You become their worst nightmare
    You remember the things that your parents had said
    And well, rather find out the hard way
    You should tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend
    I keep with my stroll, I'm not running or hiding

    [Outro]
    Ohh
    I hope they understand that I really understand
    That they don't understand
    I hope they understand that I really understand
    That they don't understand
    I really understand that they...
    I really think I, umm...
    I hope they understand that I really understand
    That they don't understand
    Whoa
    Listen to me
    Ohh
    Listen to me
