Help with ODE solving using RK method in Matlab

I have the following ode



$idot{x_n}(t)=-x_{n+1}(t)-x_{n-1}(t)+g~ x_n(t)$ with I.C. $phi(0)=-2cos(2.5)$ and $g=1$.



where $dot{x_n}=frac{dx_n}{dt}$, $n$ are discrete points in space, and $x$ is the value of field on each point.



However, I am unable to produce desired plot of $x_n$ (at a fixed time) along y-axis vs $n$ on x-axis.
I am trying to solve it via Matlab ODE45 but unable to get around it. We could take say $-5leq nleq5$, i.e., 11 total space points to start. Thanks
