Hi BFamily! Hope you enjoy watching the Official Music Video to my new single, «Shoulda Coulda Woulda» ft Ashlund Jade! Hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it!
We don’t need a conversation
I’m not here to try to change your mind
Keep my hoodie, you can take it
I’m just — dropping by to see if you’re alright
Heard you found yourself a new friend
I’m not jealous, he’s just not your type
Did you mean what you were saying
Don’t have to answer, I’m just saying
I know we’ve been here before
Maybe a couple of times
But I was stupid for what I did
For making you cry
Took you for granted, what else
I only thought of myself
I got everything I got, except you
I go crazy just thinking bout ya
shoulda coulda woulda love
On the daily just wondering what
I shoulda coulda woulda done
Cause you stood by me through whatever
And I coulda treated you better
I go crazy just thinking bout ya
My shoulda coulda woulda love
ohhh, ohhh
My shoulda coulda woulda love
ohhh, ohhh
My should coulda woulda love
I like it better when you talk less
Got some nerve for you to show up here
Tryna get all up in my head
Boy I thought I made it crystal clear, if ya
Really miss me, who’s that new chick
Tell me how that’s supposed to make me feel
How’d this get so complicated
I didn’t mean what I was saying
You know I hate to admit
I can’t get you off my mind
But you were stupid for what I did
One too many times
Took me for granted, what else
You only thought of yourself
And I hate I can’t get over you
I go crazy just thinking bout ya
shoulda coulda woulda love
On the daily just wondering what
I shoulda coulda woulda done
Cause you stood by me through whatever
And I coulda treated you better
I go crazy just thinking bout ya
My shoulda coulda woulda love
ohhh, ohhh
My shoulda coulda woulda love
ohhh, ohhh
My should coulda woulda love
Shoulda coulda woulda like
Me and here were stupid tight
Said I love you once or twice
Around 12 — rang the bell
And we had a Mayweather fight
Started bout a week ago
Tears and crying on the phone
Said she heard about me talking to some other chick named so and so
Truth is that’s a lie
I am faithful in relationships
Shorty’s like my high school hallway
Cause she’s walked through quite a bit
If I really love her like no other gotta let her know
Put a shoulda coulda woulda on the record cause I go
I go crazy just thinking bout ya
shoulda coulda woulda love
On the daily just wondering what
I shoulda coulda woulda done
Cause you stood by me through whatever
And I coulda treated you better
I go crazy just thinking bout ya
My shoulda coulda woulda love
ohhh, ohhh
My shoulda coulda woulda love
ohhh, ohhh
My should coulda woulda love
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Like the brutal morning sun
It dawns on me, what have I done?
Saying sorry aint as good as saying why
But it buys me a little more time
Lost in the moment for the second time
Each fucking doubt I make, unleash a cry
Im just pathetic, thats the reason why
In desperation, all that you can do is ask me why
[Chorus]
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Dont always think before I do
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Thats the only answer Ive got for you
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Not often proud of what I choose
Im a human, woman
A greater force I answer to
[Verse 2]
Once again, as it takes a hold
I am aware Im not in control
You see, I have a conscience and its never fooled
But its prone to be overruled
You wanna know why I always think I’m right?
(Why?) You never accept defeat and let it slide
(Why?) I have no voice if I don’t speak my mind
(Why?) My weakness is the source of all my pride
Ill tell you why
[Chorus]
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Dont always think before I do
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Thats the only answer Ive got for you
‘Cause Im a man, woman
Ill never be as strong as you
Im a human, human
A greater force I answer to
