lyrics
[Verse 1: JackPot]
I take a trip down memory lane every now and again
I reminisce on the depths that made me what I became
I built a strength from the lessons that I once threw away
And now I feel I'm at a peak I guess can only come with age
But yet at times I really feel I had to swallow bitter pills
And leave a life I probably should and could fulfill
I write a memoir to myself as I stack another shelf
With yet another dream I never got to build
I coulda been what I wanted to be
But it's never as good as it seems
And in the end when it's all but passed me
I clearly see I never seized the opportunity
But better yet I'm moving on and upwards
With a brand new outlook and without my doubters
I'm moving forward with a brand new focus
With other new surroundings without a fake to be found in
[Chorus: Krafty]
Coulda been what you wanted to be
Been the change you wanted to see
Shoulda made something of yourself
Instead of saying nothing could be helped
Life ain't waiting for you, no, no
It's too late because you chose
Coulda, woulda
Shoulda, coulda
Woulda, shoulda, coulda
Coulda, woulda, shoulda
[Verse 2: Krafty]
Now I don't pride myself on having pipe dreams
My scene has always been the same, but ay
Somewhere along the line, I guess I changed
Panicked and ran at another career lane
Fuck anyone that encouraged me to have a plan b
And took me away from my dream
One man can never serve two masters
So you're lucky it ain't my mission to hurt you bastards
I started out alone
Picked up a couple friends along the way
Recorded a thousand flows
Weren't gonna stop until our sound was known
Been put down loads but that didn't stop the downloads
We went from breaking the law to lyrically breaking them jaws
Breaking records
There weren't no way we were faking the force
I appreciate the memories
It sucks we won't make any more because you
[Chorus: Krafty]
Coulda been what you wanted to be
Been the change you wanted to see
Shoulda made something of yourself
Instead of saying nothing could be helped
Life ain't waiting for you, no, no
It's too late because you chose
Coulda, woulda
Shoulda, coulda
Woulda, shoulda, coulda
Coulda, woulda, shoulda
[Bridge]
Hear the tick on the clock
Uh, oh, no it don't stop
Tick, tick, tick on the clock
Uh, oh, no it don't stop
Life ain't waiting
Uh, oh, no life ain't
Life ain't waiting for you, no, no
Woah
[Chorus: Krafty]
Coulda been what you wanted to be
Been the change you wanted to see
Shoulda made something of yourself
Instead of saying nothing could be helped
Life ain't waiting for you, no, no
It's too late because you chose
Coulda, woulda
Shoulda, coulda
Woulda, shoulda, coulda
Coulda, woulda, shoulda
