  • Damn, nigga, every time I look at you, I swear to God
    Nigga, you got that nigga feet
    You got that nigga body
    You got that nigga long arms, fingers and shit
    Flat feet, big di-

    She said that I make expressions like him
    My legs to my shoulders and my chin like him
    My waist and my posture like him
    Like him
    Like him, like him, like him

    Mama, I'm chasing a ghost
    I don't know who he is
    Mama, I'm chasing a ghost
    I don't know where he is
    Mama, I'm chasing a ghost
    Do I look like him? (Like what?)
    Like him (like what?)
    Like him (like what?)
    Like him (la-la-la-la)

    (La-la-la-la)

    You gave me love and affection
    Attention (go), protection
    How could I ever miss somethin' (go)
    That I've never had?
    I would never judge ya
    'Cause everything worked out without him (like what?)
    Like him (like what?)
    Like him (huh?)

    Mama, I'm chasing a ghost
    I don't know who he is
    Mama, I'm chasing a ghost
    I don't know where he is
    Mama, I'm chasing a ghost
    Do I look

    (Huh?)

    (Like him)
    (Like him)

    I decided to
    Anything that lives inside of you
    I would never ever, ever lie to you, yeah
    You ain't ever gotta lie to me
    I'm everything that I've strived to be
    So do I look like him?
    Do I look like him? (Like him, like him, like him, like him)
    I don't look like him
    (Like him)

    It was my fault, not yours, not his, it was my fault, I'm sorry
    You know
    It was my fault
    Not him, 'cause he always wanted to be there for you
    And I'm sorry I was young
    But he's always wanted to be a father to you
    So I, I fucked up and I take ownership of that
    Of my choices and decisions
    And I'm sorry for that
    He's a good guy
    So don't hold that against him, because it was my fault
    Just, you know, forgive me Writer/s: Tyler Okonma
