Ghostemane - Wishers Lose Copper Dreamers Lose Everything lyrics

It started last night when I ate a tab
She gave me top till her throat sore
I thought I was living in happy land
Then I woke up, it was all gone

I sunk to the bottom the floor of the ocean
I woke up the body of Plato
He showed me Atlantean holy land
And gave me the key to mankind's hope

I wanted to say so many things but I never did
I wanted to say that you're the reason I escaped my sins

I would do pills if they made the pain go away
But you know they don't
Popping and snorting ain't nothing but band-aids
Rip it off and you got no hope

85 in a 65 trying to make my way on through the night
Red and blue lights right behind me make me think back
To those crucial nights in a Miami county cell
Where I realized that I will become somebody
Not a waste of a body, violence isn't the way

I don't want to be
So I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything
But I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake
We all drown in the lake
Wisher lost a penny
Dreamer lost everything
[2x]

(What are you trying to get across in the lyrics to these songs?

It's always about being yourself and not being ashamed of being different
Or thinking different, hum, I try and take everyone's ideals
Common morals, flip them around
Make people look at them differently, question them

Minister in the Church of Satan, right?

I think everybody's got a presentation
Everybody looks a certain way
Because they want to convey a certain image
You look a certain way
Because you want people to listen to you in a certain way

Anything can be misinterpreted
People can look at Christ on a cross and think
"This is an image of murder, this is violent
This has sexual imagery in it"
And it just
I think it's my job as an artist
To be out there pushing people's buttons
And making them question everything)

I don't want to be
So I'll drown in the lake
I tried everything
But I'm still not really free
Drown in the lake
We all drown in the lake
Wisher lost a penny
Dreamer lost everything
[2x]
