Wishers Lose Copper Dreamers Lose Everything - Ghostemane

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

Going 85 in a 65 tryna 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 (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

Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost 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

Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost everything

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.

I try and take everyone’s ideals, common morals,

flip them around, make people look at them differently, question them

You’re a 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

Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost 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

Wishers lost a penny, dreamers lost everything
