whiskey 4 the holy ghost Lyrics

[Intro: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
I’ve seen the lights in every city glow
But now I’m torn without (You did good, $lick)
Your soul
It’s a Smash
Sitting alone

[Verse 1: Scrim]
Sometimes can’t help but to wonder (Ooh)
I keep on mixing these meds and getting so high that I’m going under (Going under)
Building a house on a beach
I get hard to reach when it turn to summer (To summer)
I cherish my peace, there’s not many moments where I receive it (Ooh)
I open my eyes and look at my life, like can you believe it? (Okay, okay, okay, okay)

[Refrain: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
(I’ll turn back time to make you see)
Whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)
Whoa, whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)
(That I’ve [?])
Whoa, whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)
(I’m [?])
Whoa, whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)

[Chorus: Scrim]
Whatever you dream (Slicky), don’t ever give up (Don’t give up)
Whatever you’re feeling (Steal it), I promise you love
Yeah, just keep trying, whoa-oh
Don’t stop fighting, whoa-whoa
Yeah

[Verse 2: Scrim & Chanté Marie]
I got some buyers remorse, I wish I could give it all back (Whoa)
Yeah, plenty survivors guilt whenever I look at my plaques (Ayy, turn me up)
Can’t help but think of my dawgs that died whenever I look at the crowds
Can’t help but think of my fam that passed and hope that I’m making ’em proud
Talk about feelings, daddy would kill it, that shit was never allowed (No)
So now I shut down when we gotta talk, I would but I don’t know how (I don’t know how)
But fuck it, he taught me to get back up whenever I get knocked down (Woo)
Worst side of town, went looking for dope but instead, it was God that I found
So even went down and out (Let’s go)
Don’t ever give in to doubt (Keep going)
The Devil’s a motherfuckin’ lie (Ahh, fuck)
And one you can live without (Let’s go)
When you put that 3 in the sky, make sure you keeping your head up (Keeping your head up)
No matter the cost, no matter the loss, we never gon’ give up
(Never gon’ give up, never gon’ give up, never gon’ give up, never gon’ give up)

[Bridge: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
I’ve seen the lights in every city glow
(Never gon’ give up, never gon’ give up, never gon’ give up, never gon’ give up)
The fire at the [?]

[Verse 2: Scrim]
Yeah
Sometimes can’t help that to think (Let’s get it)
Remember them times, was ridin’ around with Ben just sipping that drank (Yeah, yeah)
Poppin’ them pills we stole
A quarter at most, was up in that tank (Too high)
Wish he was here to see it ’cause now I got millions up in the bank (Let’s go)
Like, can you believe it, bro? (The fuck?)
I wish you was here to smoke
Even though I put down the dope (The fuck?)
Like, can you believe it, bro? (The fuck?)
No poppin’ on pills to cope (It’s crazy)
I’m riding on Forgi spokes (Fuck)
Life done got so good, keep wondering if its a hoax?
To get to leu’s, I gotta hit the Bay and ride the boat
They see me coming, get to screaming, so he hide his hoe (Hm)
Momma said I’d be a star and I’m like, “How’d you know?” (How’d you know?)
Won’t argue with you, plenty times, I shoulda died for sure (That’s right)
A walking miracle, I can’t deny a god no more (Can you believe it?)

[Bridge: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
I’ve seen the lights in every city glow
Whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)
Whoa, whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)
The fire at the [?]
Whoa, whoa, can you believe it? (Can you believe it?)

[Chorus: Scrim]
Whatever you dream (Keep dreamin’), don’t ever give up (Woo)
Whatever you’re feeling (Woo), I promise you love (Oh-waa)
Yeah, just keep trying, whoa-oh
Yeah, don’t stop fighting, whoa-whoa-oh
Yeah

[Outro: Scrim]
Can you believe it? (Can you believe it? Can you believe it?)
Ohh (Ohh), can you believe it? (Can you believe it? Can you believe it?)

The song offers an introspective and emotionally charged experience, blending confessional storytelling with ambient production and layered vocal performances from both Scrim and Chanté Marie.

The song explores the dualities of struggle and success, guilt and healing, loss and redemption. Scrim reflects deeply on personal battles with addiction, grief, and emotional repression, offering raw insights into the pain that often lingers beneath outward success. Chanté Marie’s ethereal contributions elevate the spiritual undertone of the track, giving voice to both sorrow and hope. The lyrics weave through memories of friends lost, past mistakes, and familial tensions, yet anchor themselves in a persistent message of resilience and self-belief. It’s a vulnerable anthem of survival that refuses to romanticize pain but still finds light within it.

[Intro: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
The intro sets a melancholic and contemplative mood. Chanté Marie’s line about seeing city lights but feeling torn without a soul alludes to emotional emptiness in the face of outward beauty or achievement. Scrim’s ad-lib and tag quickly follow, reinforcing the theme of isolation. The setting of “sitting alone” immediately places the listener in Scrim’s solitary mental space, underscoring the emotional gravity that follows.

[Verse 1: Scrim]
Scrim opens the first verse by questioning his own choices and mental state. He admits to coping with medication and detachment, using summer as a metaphor for a time when he becomes emotionally unavailable. The beach house imagery symbolizes success, yet it comes with isolation. The verse ends with a moment of clarity, where Scrim briefly steps outside himself and marvels at how far he’s come—though it’s tinged with disbelief, highlighting the surreal nature of his survival.

[Refrain: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
The refrain serves as a surreal echo chamber of disbelief and emotional processing. While the specific phrases from Chanté Marie are partially obscured, her ethereal tone supports Scrim’s repeated question: “Can you believe it?” This mantra-like phrase captures both amazement at survival and a sense of unresolved pain. It works as a spiritual checkpoint in the song, blurring the line between grief and gratitude.

[Chorus: Scrim]
The chorus shifts toward a message of encouragement. Scrim urges listeners to keep dreaming, to not give up, and to believe in love and persistence. It’s a stark contrast to the verses, serving as both self-talk and universal motivation. This moment of emotional openness suggests that despite his scars, Scrim still believes in growth and redemption.

[Verse 2: Scrim & Chanté Marie]
This verse dives deeper into emotional scars, touching on survivor’s guilt, family trauma, and spiritual awakening. Scrim reflects on his achievements—like awards and crowds—and how they’re tainted by memories of lost friends and estranged emotional bonds. He speaks of being raised in a household where emotions were suppressed, leading him to struggle with vulnerability. A turning point comes when he finds faith where he least expected—while seeking drugs. It’s a moment of profound transformation that reinforces the song’s spiritual core. The verse ends on a powerful note of defiance against despair, insisting on perseverance even in the face of overwhelming odds.

[Bridge: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
The bridge reprises the visual of glowing city lights, but paired with a cryptic reference to fire, it suggests both beauty and danger. The repetition of “never gon’ give up” becomes a kind of chant or prayer, reinforcing the resilience woven throughout the song. Chanté Marie’s vocals continue to lend the track a ghostly and sacred tone, aligning with the song’s title.

[Verse 2: Scrim]
This second iteration of Verse 2 focuses on memories of Scrim’s past life, specifically with a friend named Ben. He recalls substance use and the recklessness of youth, contrasted sharply with his current success and sobriety. There’s a bittersweet tone to his success—he wishes those lost could witness it. He marvels at the drastic change in his life, yet still carries emotional weight. The verse ends with a declaration of faith and survival, positioning himself as a living testament to divine grace.

[Bridge: Chanté Marie & Scrim]
Returning once more, the bridge becomes a thematic anchor. The repetition of “can you believe it?” alongside the imagery of glowing lights continues to evoke the tension between hope and heaviness. The fire remains an elusive but powerful symbol—perhaps referencing pain, transformation, or divine presence.

[Chorus: Scrim]
The final chorus reiterates the core message of hope and tenacity. Scrim reaffirms that no matter the emotion or dream, one must hold on and keep pushing forward. The uplifting tone is supported by layered vocals and instrumentation that evoke perseverance against the odds.

[Outro: Scrim]
In the outro, Scrim continues the refrain of disbelief, almost like a mantra or self-reminder. It captures the persistent astonishment of someone who’s survived more than they ever expected. There’s gratitude in his voice, but also a lingering trace of sorrow—perfectly closing the loop on the emotional and spiritual journey of the song.
