The Lyrics

Revised version of song, scrapped last verse before in-class performance.
Look / if you had / one shot / or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
One moment
Would you capture it?
Or just let it slip?

Your palms are bloody, knees weak, guilt is heavy
You murdered that king yourself already, you aren't steady
You're nervous, but on the surface, you look tough and ready
To kill more, but we won't be forgettin'
The guilt came down, conscience overwhelmed with doubt
What's that? A voice? The insanities out
You're worried, how everyone's 'spicious now
It's too late, you wanna go back, but how!?!
Appearance vs. reality, deprived of his sanity
Oh, there goes your wife, she's choked
Paranoid, but she - has that vile ambition
No, but you still got the witches premonition
It ignites your, mission
Banquo's next, tough decision
Fleance 'scapes, pre-cognition
This all reshapes your last transition, that's when it's
Time to kill again yo
this whole tragedy
You've lost all grasp of this moment, don't look but it passed you

You've gone and lost yourself in the kinghood, the bloodshed
You know it, but you refuse to let it go
You only had one shot, but you missed your chance to rule
The opportunity came and you passed it by (yo)
(2X)


Your soul's escaping, as Banquo's wound is left gaping
Scotland is yours for the taking
So you're king, and you move towarda, tyrant order
A normal life is boring, but superstardom's close to post mortem
You only grow crazier, tryin'a be-a savior
He knows he's got plenty of woes is all on him
Coast to coast foes, he's known as the royal traitor
Bloodshed grows, you only know -
You slay'd the MacDuffs, 'cept for their father
Just more victims of a meaningless slaughter
The fate that you chose, is up in hot water
You're safe from any man born of a mother
Out from the woods Macduff rose, and nose
To nose Mac fought his last breath,
A tragic story, ends with a death to Macbeth
Malcolm restores old glory, but Scotland lives on
Da Da Dum Da Dum DaDa

You've gone and lost yourself in the kinghood, the bloodshed
You know it, but you refuse to let it go
You only had one shot, but you missed your chance to rule
The opportunity came and you passed it by (yo)
(2X)


You could have done anything you set your mind to Macbeth
