The Lyrics

About the dark side of ghostbusing and the Ghostbusters.
As I cruise through the city that is shadowed in death
I take a look at my life and realize that bustin's it
Cuz I've been blastin and trappin so long, that
even I gonna think that my soul is gone
But I ain't never crossed a stream even if I shoulda.
Me be treated with respect? New York? That's unheard of.
You better know who you're calling, and where you're crawling
or you and your homies might be slimed by ghosts.
I really hate the trip but I gotta go
As I go I see myself in the ecto smoke, fool
I'm the brand new G, the little ghosties gonna run in fright.
On the streets in the night, Busting scares in the moonlight.

Been spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Been spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Keep spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Keep spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise

I got the situation, they got me facin'
I can't live a normal life, I was raised by these peeps
so I gotta be down with the Ghost team.
No more television watching, got me chasing threes.
I'm an educated dude with ghosties on the mind.
got my pack on my back and a gleam in my eye
I'm a decked out blasta, trap settin' stranger.
And with ghosties around just don't arouse my anger, fool
Death ain't nothing but just three feet away,
I'm saving lives, in NY, what can I say
I'm just 18 now, but we've been around since 84
Ghosts are your problem? Pick up the phone

Tell me why are we, in NYC,
That the one's who bust, treat like nothing
Been spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Been spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Keep spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Keep spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise

Power and the money, Zuulee and the master
Minute after minute, power versus power.
Everybody's running, and all of them are screaming
What's going on in the kitchen? And you don't know what's hauntin'.
They say I'm gonna burn, but nobody's here to brawl me.
If they don't understand it, why do they call me?
I guess they ain't, I guess they won't .
I leave they front, that's why I know I live a Ghostbuster, fool

Been spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Been spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Keep spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Keep spending all my life, living in the 'buster's paradise
Tell me why are we, in NYC,
That the one's who bust, treat like nothing
Tell me why are we, in NYC,
Are treated like crud, Us. The GB's.
