Lyrics
[Intro]
Damn, ****, every time I look at you, I swear to God
****, you got that **** feet, you got that **** body
You got that **** long arms, fingers and shit
Flat feet, big di—
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
La, la-la, la
[Verse 2]
You gave me love
And affection, attention, protection
How could I ever miss something that I've never had?
I would never judge you
'Cause everything worked out without him (Like what?)
Like him (Like what?)
Like him
[Chorus]
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—
[Bridge]
Huh?
[Refrain]
Like him
Like him
[Bridge]
Let it go
I've decided to anything that lives inside of you
I would never, ever lie to you, yeah
Oh
You ain't ever gotta lie to me, I'm everything that I've strived to be
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
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
