Ghost!

Okay This is just to set up the basis for what this song is about and to record the history of current events at the time of "THe Legend of Mr. Rager" release. Scott Mescudi has come to portray two huge things in his life. The first being he's told the world that he was addicted to blow (cocaine). Thats got a large part of what this song is about. The other is that he is going to be a daddy. I know these two things from watching a couple different interviews with Cudi and reading magazine interviews. This interpretation is just my personal opinions.

"Gotta get it through my thick head. I was so close to being dead. Yeah. Life. Live it. Nobody self checks."

Seems to be a direct relation to his addiction to cocaine. Especially "I was so close to being dead", He literally almost died a couple times from coke. He is saying He was living life, doing exactly what he wanted, just like "Pursuit of Happiness". Nobody self checks part is obvious, like my screenname ;).

"See, things do come around and make sense eventually. Things do come around but some things trouble me."

He has stated that he is from now on clean from blow, and it seems that his daughter is a big inspiration for that. SO now that he has a clearer mind he sees how his life was and it now makes sense. "Some things trouble me" may refer to it being hard to fully quit, or the memories of all that he was gone through in his life so far.

"You remember the things that your parent's had said, and would rather find out the hard way."

Many people can easily relate to this, parents always warn their children about dangers in life, yet we still want to try it for ourselves to experience it.

Well so far thats all that I have formulated in my mind, really the point of this post is to get the comments a rolling on this song and hopefully create more hype on this album. Kid Cudi is an under rated musician. Get this album and give it a serious listen. -David McKee
