[male
vocals] (
Yeah,
yeah)
Just
the
ghost
in
the
room
Another
shift,
another
night
Let
the
bass
hit,
let
the
pain
breathe 2019,
they
moved
me
from
Mufulira
town
Left
my
home,
left
my
wife,
Ronald
Ross
behind
They
brought
me
here
to
Kakoso,
Chililabombwe
Two
long
years,
alone,
day
and
night,
just
me
The
cold
air,
the
fluorescent
lights,
the
quiet
hum
Checking
vitals
while
my
own
heart
feels
numb
Disconnected
from
the
life
I
once
knew
Just
a
shadow
in
the
scrubs
passing
through
I
am
the
man
behind
the
painless
surgery
You
never
see
my
face,
but
I
hold
your
life
in
me
I
have
given
all
I
have,
with
no
thanks
to
show
But
still
I
rise,
still
I
serve,
still
I
don't
let
go
Yeah,
I
hold
your
life
in
me,
I'm
the
one
you
never
see
Just
a
phantom
in
the
back,
working
silently
They
promised
my
wife
a
job,
a
place
in
health
But
seven
years
have
passed, 2026,
still
nothing
left
I
wake
at
midnight,
leave
my
children
sleeping
To
save
a
life,
while
my
own
family
is
waiting
Promises
broken,
words
like
dust
in
the
wind
Fighting
for
my
family,
wondering
where
I’
ve
been
The
clock
is
ticking,
the
monitors
are
screaming
I’
m
living
a
nightmare
while
the
world
is
dreaming
I
am
the
man
behind
the
painless
surgery
You
never
see
my
face,
but
I
hold
your
life
in
me
I
have
given
all
I
have,
with
no
thanks
to
show
But
still
I
rise,
still
I
serve,
still
I
don't
let
go
Yeah,
I
hold
your
life
in
me,
I'm
the
one
you
never
see
Just
a
phantom
in
the
back,
working
silently
I
have
taught
my
juniors,
shared
all
my
skills
I
have
run
to
help
others
when
they
could
not
do
it
still
I
have
served
the
wards,
the
theatre,
every
cadre
But
all
my
work
falls
on
ears
that
do
not
hear
They
look
past
the
uniform,
they
look
past
the
man
Doing
all
I
can
just
to
stick
to
the
plan
Sacrificed
my
time,
sacrificed
my
peace
Waiting
for
the
pressure
and
the
pain
to
cease
My
heart
is
tired,
heavy
in
my
chest
Searching
for
a
moment
of
silence
and
rest
But
the
pager
keeps
calling,
the
struggle
remains
I’
m
the
doctor
of
the
night,
numbing
all
the
pains
Yeah,
I
numb
the
pain
for
you
But
who's
gonna
numb
the
pain
I'm
going
through?
I
am
the
man
behind
the
painless
surgery
You
never
see
my
face,
but
I
hold
your
life
in
me
I
have
given
all
I
have,
with
no
thanks
to
show
But
still
I
rise,
still
I
serve,
still
I
don't
let
go
Yeah,
I
hold
your
life
in
me,
I'm
the
one
you
never
see
Just
a
phantom
in
the
back,
working
silently
Still
rising
Still
serving
Just
me
in
the
night
Kakoso,
you
see
me?
I'm
still
here (
Fading

with
deep 808
