[Intro: Bonita Smith]

Damn, nigga, every time I look at you, I swear to God

Nigga, you got that nigga feet

You got that nigga body

You got that nigga long arms, fingers and shit

Flat feet, big di—

[Verse 1: Tyler, The Creator]

She said that I make expressions like him

My legs and my shoulders like him, like him

My waist and my fah-fah like him

Like him

Like him, like him, like him

[Chorus: Tyler, The Creator]

Mama, I'm chasin' a ghost

I don't know who he is (Huh?)

Mama, I'm chasin' a ghost

I don't know where he is (Huh?)

Mama, I'm chasin' a ghost

Do I look like him? (Like what?)

Like him (Like what?) (Huh?)

Like him (Like what?)

Like him (La-la-la-la)

[Post-Chorus: Tyler, The Creator]

(La-la-la-la)

(Huh?)

[Verse 2: Tyler, The Creator]

Knock, knock, knock (At the door)

The cats out the bag, too complex to itch

What I'll never scratch, so how can I judge you?

You did what you could, you nurtured a seed

That turned into woods (Ay, ay, ay)

Look at her (Ay, ay, ay)

It turned out

With new things, do I sound

Like him (Like what?)

Like him (Like what?)

Like him (Huh?)

[Chorus: Tyler, The Creator & Baby Keem]

Mama, I'm chasin' a ghost (Huh?)

I don't know who he is

Mama, I'm chasin' a ghost

I don't know where he is

Mama, I'm chasin' a ghost

Do I look

(Huh?)

[Post-Chorus: Tyler, The Creator]

Like him

Like him

[Verse 3: Tyler, The Creator & Lola Young]

I decided to

Really get that love inside of you

I would never ever lie to you (Yeah)

You ain't never gotta lie to me

I'm everything that I strive to be

So do I look like him?

Do I look like him? (Like him, like him, like him, like him)

I don't look like him

(Like him)

[Outro: Bonita Smith]

It was my fault, not yours, not his, it was my fault, I'm sorry

You know

It was my fault

Not him, 'cause he always wanted to be there for you

And I'm sorry I was young

But he's always wanted to be a father to you

So I, I fucked up and I take ownership of that

Of my choices and decisions

And I'm sorry for that

He's a good guy

So don't hold that against him, because it was my fault

Just, you know, forgive me
