Текст песни 44RON - Could’ve Been

[Verse 1]
I feel like travelin' back to the roots I'm so familiar with
Back when I wasn't so resilient, just to see how I'd cope now
With what I know now, I would kill this shit
But this type of fearlessness brings along with a type of feelin'
Cats wanna copy just so they can feel some shit
You call it cocky, I call this shit brilliance, bitch
'Cause I been reminiscin' with some better vision
And I'm givin' this shit the best attempt that I have ever given
For the first time in a minute, I ain't thinkin' 'bout the competition
This is for me, and you can bet I'm finna listen
'Cause I've grown, shit, I'm a man now, 18 years old
I'm an adult now, finally got a plan mapped out
And I ain't gonna back down, nah

[Chorus]
In the middle of the night, I drеam
Of what could've been
When it's my time to comе home
Will they look again?
Will they look past the flaws?
Look past it all?
Or will they keep remindin' me
Of what I could've been?

[Verse 2]
My heart has been beaten into shape like a bronze plate
Time to start breakin' myself out of this dark place
I'ma walk straight to the exit, came a long way
Sayin' adios, bitch, I'm outtie like an R8
Fillin' every void in my life as the scars fade
Every sharp blade ain't leave a mark, now, I'm awake
I ain't afraid anymore, I ain't ashamed
I went from playin', now I'm dealin' in this card game
So bring it on, bitch, I'm locked and loaded
This time around, I ain't afraid to rock the boat, bitch
'Cause when I wrote this, I just shifted focus
And reached forward, like it's automotive
Feelin' like I wanna go for broke
But fixated on the podium, I know I'm goin'
You can't escape the cons when you hang with pros
So I only hang with vets, this is Yeo 2.0, bitch!

[Chorus]
In the middle of the night, I dream
Of what could've been
When it's my time to come home
Will they look again?
Will they look past the flaws?
Look past it all?
Or will they keep remindin' me
Of what I could've been?
