I don't talk to anyone from high school

Cause I dropped out freshman year

Signed a record deal

Then made an album

No one's ever gonna hear

Now they've all graduated college

I've never left this studio

Memories of half my life are missing

I've still haven't written anything

But I'll keep breaking my own heart

Finding ways to make it out

I'm still not what I wanna be

So what more do you want from me

I should've been somebody

By now

I should've been somebody

By now

Not a d**ned thing's changed

And the years go by

No one knows my name

I should've been somebody

Since I was five I never stopped performing

Even when my dad got sick

Stayed behind my family moved to Houston

One more f**king show I just couldn't exist

I've sacrificed more than enough

And after everything I've done

I'm still not where I wanna be

So what more do you want from me

I should've been somebody

By now

I should've been somebody

By now

Not a d**ned thing's changed

And the years go by

No one knows my name

I should've been somebody

I could've been somebody
