The Christmas Spirit(s) Lyrics

Yo don't mean to wake you up, but is the ghost of Christmas past

My bad I didn't mean to spook you homie just relax

But I want to talk, 'cause I can see that you been mad

At the world, and starting to affect they way you act

'Cause lately your perspective is that everything is rotten

But what I'm about to show you is glimpse of days forgotten

Let's take it back to when you were just a little boy

When the the room is filled with laughter in your heart was filled with joy

And underneath the Christmas tree was all your favorite toys

But then you grew up and you had dreams destroyed

I know that life is hard, but you always have a choice

There's a lot of people out there who don't even have a voice

So this Christmas? Let's be thankful for what we have

Laugh, and make memories that are gonna last

Here's your stop, hit me if you need to catch a cab

Signing off, here's my card, it's the Ghost of Christmas past

Yo I don't mean to interrupt, but it's the ghost of Christmas present

I didn't mean to scare you but I'm here to teach a lesson

See some people think that Christmas time is all about the presents

But I'ma show you a just couple things you been forgetting

And I know that for some folks, Christmas is a blessing

But for others this time of year, Christmas is depressing

People stressing, and I ain't just talking bout Tiny Tim

I'm talkin' 'bout the homeless shelter by where you live

What happened, to just trying to help and give

Seems like we forgot the meaning of Christmas and what it is

If not do it for yourself, at least do it for the kids

'Cause the sound of their laughter is like music to the ears

It's a new year, So let try not regret it

And all that negativity? Yo you just need to dead it

I'm here, to send you this message I hope get it

Signing off, truly yours, it's the ghost of Christmas present

I don't mean to interrupt but it's the ghost of Christmas future

I'm sorry if I scared ya, yo I didn't mean to spook ya

But picture this, everybody gathered at your funeral

Cousins, nieces, nephews and and all the people you know

But as you look around? Nobody sheds a tear

Because when you were alive, you were never really there

We tried to call, we tried to show you that cared

But you were always too busy, tried to stay out of your hair

Yet we can't forget, all the good times that we shared

The the laughter, and all that good food that mom prepared

Things could've been different if you'd been a little kinder

Having Christmas parties but nobody was invited

I know it's in there somewhere if you look inside and find it

But life is strange, I wish there was some way we could rewind it

This is just a reminder, be kind, pay your producer

Until we meet again it's the ghost of Christmas future
