Used to matter - Soldiers of the jah army
Cordoba, Argentina
See, these d[Em]ays it's differ[D]ent,
It's all new. The [G]old is gone
and [Am]I am too.
[Em]Wishing I was cl[D]oser to
[G]back when it used to m[C]atte[C/B]r
All my [Em]coins are gone,
it's pl[D]astic now
My [G]Ipod's got me [Am]asking 'how
could [Em]all my albums t[D]ake me down
To b[G]ack when it used to m[C]att[C/B]er?'
Chorus:
Now it se[G]ems that [D]we
are all wr[Em]apped up so tight,
l[C]ight just can't get i[G]n
And I fe[D]el that we can't se[Em]e
Now it se[G]ems that [D]we
are all wr[Em]apped up so tight,
l[C]ight just can't get i[G]n
And I f[D]eel, it's not 'ma[Em]ybe'
See, my watch is worthless,
So is my pen
And it seems nothing is
greater than
something that takes me
Way back when, to
back when it used to Matter
All the wrods I write
are on a screen,
And the friends I have
have 'added' me
And there's no record
of anything,
and now we all cease
to matter
So you die when you turn 22
but they gonna wait to bury you
Cuz you got a 9 to 5 to do
And that's supposed to matter
So you replace your time
in between
with other peoples'
hopes and dreams
And they live their lives on
your TV
And now you don't even matter
I just want us yo be who were
supposed to be and who we are
doesn't it seem like were kinda
far from the original plan
when it used to matter
