Drawing inspiration for this song from being bullied most his life, Gh0st created a track to give a voice to the voiceless and show that you can overcome adversity if you push for it.
lyrics
//Intro//
Yeah bullying, it's a prevelant case in today's society,
We want to change it?Do something about it yourself,
ha yeah, cos I'm just saying, if we don't?
Who will? Ha
//Verse 1//
Pen in one hand pad of paper in the other,
Crafting suicide notes with a razor on the dresser,
Life is too hard and I'm ready to give up,
Looking back on my life I wonder when I fucked up,
Bullies in my life made life a living hell,
Couldn't wait for the end of the day when I heard them bells,
First day at a new school I could already tell,
I'd be running from the bus stop while the other kids yelled,
Get him, stop him, don't let him get away,
Black eyes, bruised ribs I couldn't wait for the new day,
Kept my head in the books and studied real real hard,
Thinking to myself this could take me real real far,
Maybe one day I'll go to college and be an academic star,
Then high school came and shit got more hard,
Surrounded by rich kids fancy everything, no class,
Picking on everyday they couldn't imagine my past
//Hook x2//
Fucking bullies in my life never made life easy,
I don't care what you think of this song it may be cheesy,
But don't ever judge me in my life unless you wanna be me
//Verse 2//
Had a piece of shit father who beat us everyday,
Greatest thing my mom did was get us away,
Mom, sisters, and me living homeless in a car,
Didn't bother me we had a brand new start,
That was in the summer then school came around,
Driving from the shelter to drop us off across town,
Wearing the same clothes 3 out of 5 days a week,
Man it's crazy the simplest shit can get your ass beat,
How you take it is how you live it,
Had a lot of friends and money I don't miss it,
So don't judge someone 'fore you get to know 'em,
A lot more to their life than they prolly showing,
Wanna change what's going on in the world today,
Put my music on repeat and don't let it fade,
Everybody deserves a start and a brand new day,
Fuck it I'm done I said what I gotta say
