SHOW AND PROVE

Produced by Chicago's Ro., "ghosted" is the second single from AUSAR's debut album I NOW KNOW. (also known as "INK").

In spellbinding fashion, the Chicago native croons over piano synths, organs, and searing electric guitar riffs as he comes to terms with the emotions and people he's kept at arm's length. 

In this jolting yet haunting R&B ballad, AUSAR belts about ghosting past lovers, lazily maintaining friendships (that no longer serve him), and being callous about his emotions with himself and others. As the song crescendos, AUSAR oddly finds, in a twist of tales, that he's actually the one who's been ghosted (as he stands alone with his discomfort) — and must deal with the phantoms of his past if he's ever to find real, unbridled peace in his present.

I NOW KNOW.

You my right haaand, you my go to. You my right haaaand, where'd you go to?

(lyrics)
Mind gone...
Might've been the shots of Henny that I took in plenty
If we talkin bout decisions, how come only mine wrong?
Maybe it's the indi-cuddy I've been gettin
Still stuck guilt trippin, fuckin wit a couple rhinestones
See? It was always simple, if it ain't broke, don't fix it
If it's dirty, get the mop bucket water ready for the pine sol
Or jolly ranchers for the Sprite bottle...

Been on your Cupid, I'm still stuck on stupid
Who knew Aphrodite could live without Zeus?
I ain't tryna be used to it cuz I've been so blindsided
Listen to my side, shit
Damn, I see the damage but I know you ain't thinkin proper
Man, I know I fucked up but there should be something I could
Say to stop her
This shit, I ain't used to
Don't wanna give it up, I stopped with the games to go back how we used to, cuz nobody love me like you do
You said that we had forever
You said we'd get through anything
Are you sayin karma came back around 'fore I had common ground witchya?
Mad pictures, I had everything

Remember when you always used to tell me: "it was worth the headache", you would never dead it
Girl don't you forget it
Now you rollin credits on the big picture? You need sedatives
This shit I ain't used to, hell yeah I regret it, I was tryna edit too late, but don't shred it
Hangin by a thread, and you holdin scissors? I don't get the message
A misunderstanding, I planned to be mannish for the planet holdin this pair of parents
Who gave birth to some bullshit that only just threw us off balance, wit a challenge too rough apparently
It's clear to see in your decision, you had a vision, you cool wit the fission
Once again, you livin smooth as butter, and I'm just stuck trippin through the gutter
Karma's wrath cut this Lan Fan's right arm, gone off with that dog, still drippin
It's still drippin...
