Lil Ghost and jxdn have officially come together to release their new collaboration “time of my life,” out everywhere now.
Throughout the entire song, Lil Ghost and jxdn lean into the thrill-seeking chaos of youth, delivering a nighttime anthem that is euphoric and emotionally frayed. Built on highs, lows, and the blurriness in between, the track captures the 3 a.m. feeling where the party doesn’t stop.
The song opens with an existential punch: “If heaven’s in the sky / We’re gonna have to bring it down tonight.” This is a line that helps to set the tone for the rest of the track, balancing rebellion with the silent acknowledgement of mortality. The repeated mantra of living for the moment—“If we’re livin’ just to die / I’m gonna have the time of my life”—isn’t just a hook; it becomes the emotional heartbeat of the song.
What unfolds across the verses is a messy carousel of chemical highs and club temptations. Lines like “I think I lost my mind off these chemicals” and “These girls are dancing on me… got no control” give the track its raw, unfiltered edge.
The song’s second verse shifts into a jet-lagged blur of lust and late-night spontaneity, painting the artist as both thrill-chaser and tour guide to chaos. Lines like “Wavin’ down the taxi / Hoppin’ in the backseat” tumble into a bold, unfiltered intimacy that feels reckless but undeniably alive. When he drops the “Meet me in Shanghai… Mr. International” flex, the track expands beyond the club—suddenly global, fast-moving, and committed to chasing connection wherever the night happens to lead.
Beneath all the adrenaline, there’s a quiet thread of isolation running through the track. The chorus and outro, circling back on themselves again and again, sound like someone trying to reassure themselves that the high is worth it.
Yet that tension is exactly what makes the song addicting. It’s glossy, reckless, and catchy in a way that begs for late-night playlists and festival crowds. Whether the listener taps into the escapism or the emotional unraveling, “time of my life” thrives in the in-between: the place where pleasure meets self-destruction, and where meaning is found only for a moment—before the lights turn back on.
