A Place to Escape by Mimic Ghost Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2015

[Australian Gibberish]

[Verse 1]
I found myself down in the darkest places
When i wanted to die because my life was a waste
But i uncovered something great
A place to escape and i discovered my fate to not follow
My mates cause i'm never smoking or drinking
I'm always focused and thinking, i'll never be
Sinking down to their level of mimicing, i'm my own king
My own role model in itself, i follow myself
Because i wanted to change the world's self wealth
And it all started with a controler and a game
I was never the same, from Atari to Xbox
From Harry Potter to Halo they're the only reasons
As a kid, i didn't slit my wrists and end my life
Although it left scares; not in my arms, but in my heart
So to me, it is more than a game, it saved my life
And that's a fuck of allot more than my family can say
And now it feels like i'm chasing a dream
In this reality scene
[Chorus 1]
A place to escape
A place to escape
We need a place to escape
A place to escape
A place to escape

[Verse 2]
Some say it's pitiful or unusual to be an individual
To look out for yourself and fuck everyone else
For your dream it's possible achieve
What's impossible beilve you're phenomenal
Cause now you're responsible for every little action
That you do, so make it count
Cause no one gives a fuck what me or you have been through
Now find your escape, for me it's playing games
I'm not a super hero with a cape, i'm just Mimic Ghost
And that's just a name; you can create your own
And go reach something great with your life become the greatest
Rapper alive, it's possible, just try
You can work nine to five, live a normal life
Or you can decide to inspire your mind, to save a galexy
Or join the heresy, you see? choice is a beautiful thing
So use it don't obscure it
Cause we're doin' it in a virtual world
That we here have weld
[Chorus 2]
We need a place to escape
A place to escape
A place to escape
A place to escape
A place to escape

[Verse 3]
Never once good enough, never once the chosen one
Put down for my rap, my games i will never reach the fame
Pathetic bringing shame to my familiy's name
I've been through enough emotional pain
That my so called "friends" have brang
No one really has the faith that they say they have
They just pat me on the back and say "Go rap"
I know i have the skill, i have the lyrics of a prophet
But i only rap about games, so i hold 'em
If i ever get the chance, then i got it
No more fuckin' around, you will see my true skill
And it will change your view on sound

[Pre-Chorus]
This is only the beggining, when i die, it'll finish
I am here to save rap and i'm improving everyday
Dropping out my social life so i can enhance what i say
In a lyrical way and it started with the Tube
Listen to me, i love each and everyone of you
You gave me a dream!
[Outro]
A place to escape
Deer god, please continue to help me follow my dream
A place to escape
And keep getting me one step closer
A place to escape
Please take care of my fans, give them a place to escape
A place to escape
And help them follow their dreams
Amen, this is our time
A place to escape
