Ghosttt (song)

## Tracklisting

"**Ghosttt**", originally titled "**Ghost**", is a song by American singer-songwriter Slayyyter. It is the second single and the fourteenth and final track from her self-titled debut mixtape. The single version of the song was released on all streaming services on August 31st, 2018.

## Background

The song was originally meant for Ayesha Erotica's third album *Horny.4u*, however, the project was later scrapped as Ayesha had retired from music. It was titled "Come C My Tits". Ayesha later gave the song's instrumental to Slayyyter.

Slayyyter first teased the song on her Instagram and Twitter on August 29th, 2018. It was released two days later on all streaming services.

In late June of 2019, Slayyyter posted her mixtape's tracklist on Twitter, however, she immediately deleted it right after. It had confirmed that a reworked version of "Ghost", renamed "Ghosttt", would be on the mixtape. Shortly after that, a studio snippet of the song leaked; it is speculated that it was shared by Slayyyter herself.

The song was later performed in full during *The Mini Tour.*

## Critical Reception

At the time of its release, the song had generally positive reception from fans, however, it went mostly unnoticed from critics due to Slayyyter's low popularity. *The Fader* called the track a "whip-smart breakup song that hinges on a cute necklace metaphor" and stated that Slayyyter "sounds fresh and vulnerable".

**[Intro]**

(Slayyyter)

S-L-A-Y-Y-Y-T-E-R

**[Verse 1]**

Baby you really hurt me

You made me cry so much

Really did me dirty

Now you wanna get all flirty

Say you wanna stay in touch

But I don't miss you that much

**[Pre-Chorus]**

You are just a ghost to me

You are just a ghost, baby

You are just a ghost to me

You are just a ghost, baby

Yeah

**[Chorus]**

I want back the necklace

I'll keep the memories

Go fuck your boring girls

'Cause you can't handle me

Don't sext another word

Fuck what you have to say

Boy I don't need your love

You're just a ghost to me

Yeah

You're just a ghost to me

Maybe it wasn't all meant to be

Feel like I can breathe even though you're haunting me

You are just a ghost to me

You are just a ghost, baby

You are just a ghost, baby, where'd you go?

You are just a ghost to me
