Give up the Ghost

High time I go and give up the ghost

Look back on my life and all I see

Is a nerd obscured by weed and smoke

I worry I can't do it but I know

If I go for the low say bye to the high

A part of my heart might start inside

Might survive and lead a life I don't loathe

In spite of the pipe that don't glow.

Love weed, proceed to pack the bong

A done deed frontin like nothing's wrong

No breaks, wake and bake in bed

A mistake, a flake that's faking death

Love weed, pre-flicks hot boxin rides

During games, after everytime I died

But their fun not dumb just on their own

It was a lie I told to condone

I love weed, I burned lots of pape

Lost money, instead of finding fate

Don't miss it, don't even visit on holidays

White knuckles, buckled down my mind is made

Loved weed, what's new is missing booze

No beers seven years and I'm still confused

Life's weird now that I see it clear

But I'm here rather fight than fly from fear

High time I go and give up the ghost

Look back on my life and all I see

Is a nerd obscured by weed and smoke

I worry I can't do it but I know

If I go for the low say bye to the high

A part of my heart might start inside

Might survive and lead a life I don't loathe

In spite of the pipe that don't glow.

I'm a quitter go ahead call me names

My one hitter got me through college days

I would bug out, my dug out doled out the daze

Stuck my tongue out like the bum out at vmas

Just a joke living with my folks

After school, but I thought I was so dope

In the stairs staring at the wall

Smoking dope instead of making calls

Got a job but I was always high

Lost my job man I wonder why

I'm a slob my dunks were funkafied

Drink on and off but I'd be baking pumpkin pie

Moved away left my friends behind

They forged bonds I forged a brand that was mine

It caught on a career I clearly carved

I smoked bongs man I'm feeling starved

Came home all my friends had split

Lame zone yes I'll have a hit

Not the same your frames of reference change

Alone and stoned was sadly not my aim

High time I go and give up the ghost

Look back on my life and all I see

Is a nerd obscured by weed and smoke

I worry I can't do it but I know

If I go for the low say bye to the high

A part of my heart might start inside

Might survive and lead a life I don't loathe

In spite of the pipe that don't glow.

Looking back gives me an asthma attack

It's whick whack coulda been makin stacks

Talking smack in fact I lacked in tact

Too high my friends were taken a back

With regret wish I could edit every word

Never meant it won't forget the feelings hurt

It's no excuse the abuse was too absurd

I was a bully should've been the nerd

I was like this even before the weed

I try the fight this with every breath I breathe

I blamed others enemies were every place

A drunk Dad and brothers that hate my face

We all suffered it's something I now accept

They'd love it if I would just show some respect

Now I try it's harder than it sounds

But I don't hide inside the cloud I found

High time I go and give up the ghost

Look back on my life and all I see

Is a nerd obscured by weed and smoke

I worry I can't do it but I know

If I go for the low say bye to the high

A part of my heart might start inside

Might survive and lead a life I don't loathe

In spite of the pipe that don't glow.

Advice it's something you may not need

It can be nice occasionally smoking weed

It might help keep calm no longer tense

It might help keep demons out your head

If your sad, you think your life Is shit

It went bad like something in your fridge

Lose the bag and save your money kid

Take a breath, try to resist a bit

I'm still me, even without the weed

I love life, I even have time to read

I have a wife, she's the best to me

It's alright to control your destiny

I prefer it, before I was blurred and mean

I feel current though nobody's heard of me

That's cool, I'm just here to burn the beat

Old school, nerdy eternity

I'm not done, I still have lots of plans

Write a book hopefully start a fam

Buy a house all I want is to own some land

Got it all as long as she holds my hand

Next time you find you need a fix

Or you're pissed and need a dog to kick

Ask why? What the f*ck started this.

No lies love yourself like Chris.

High time I go and give up the ghost

Look back on my life and all I see

Is a nerd obscured by weed and smoke

I worry I can't do it but I know

If I go for the low say bye to the high

A part of my heart might start inside

Might survive and lead a life I don't loathe

In spite of the pipe that don't glow.
