Cartel - Wasted

[AngelS773]

when i first heard this song, i cried so hard. :'(

[m32132]

Hey, did anybody mention this scarce/first possible mixup?

[LoLovesYou13]

personally, idgaf about a WORD... it's not like I really looked at it until y'all pointed it out. you should just focus on the fact that this is an amazing song. mmkay?

[xTreyray]

Cartel is goodddd

[musicislife7911]

who ever knew you could make pain sound so beautiful? this song is amazing

[DeaDKillerZZ]

280sportamg  <---- he's right the lyrics are wrong were u wrote them in the description box. Good song my Brother died in a car accident. It brought back so many memories i cried. and i never cry

[PutUpOrShutUp221]

for some reason this song reminds me alot of the background music in sonic heroes... idk hahahh

[280sportamg]

The lyrics are wrong, its

'thought he had his whole life'

and yeah, this song is totally awesome, but terribly saddening, everyone can relate. The word visceral to describe cancer is horrible and emotion envoking.

[GabrielleHope1]

wow i know its anouing when people dont know lyrics but get a life your fighting over a song

[SARAsGotBack00]

this song is amazing

[whitney813]

it's a song, it's a WORD. get a life, please

[whitney813]

why is everyone crying over a fucking word in this song? scarse.. first.. who gives a fuck?! IT'S A WORD! for someone to cry over ONE WORD needs a life, seriously.

[hippie4life009]

excuse me. i don't think you really understand this song. my good friend died on may 13th. and yeah i'm gonna cry when i listen to it. because it's basically exactly what happened. so you get a life and appreciate it.

[SmokeyCannon71]

I feel bad for you

[xx0skiil0xx]

its baby takes it's first breathe, its saying she just gave birth, it took its first breathe but it is going to die soon, thats why it says

It's 2:45 the baby takes his 1st breath

the mother never knew he only had a few left

the father gets a call in the middle of the night

his breath gets short and his chest gets tight

[hippie4life009]

you could take lyrics any way. that's not what it means. maybe in your eyes but not mine. lyrics are meant to be taking anyway.

[burkleojohn1]

its first u can tell just by listing 2 it c'mon ppl....its not even that hard of a song 2 follow and i love it......it actually makes alot of sence and i bet a lot of ppl could relate 2 it 1 way or another

[Beckywozere07]

I Love This Song = )

Btw, Its Defo 1st Breath = ) x

[optimisticgurl8]

I love this song, but it's kind of hard to follow the song lol :P

[Murreburrebus]

I don't know what to say... It's a great song, but when the "bridge" comes, it sounds... happy.... Help me understand. Sad lyrics and a happy melody... dosen't really fit, dosen't it?

[hippie4life009]

i think it does. it's ironic. but not really. look death is a verrrry peaceful thing. and life is pleasant and fulfilling. it's just the transition that's hard.

[Leadstorm51357]

he does say scarce....listen VERY closely

[whitney813]

I don't give a fuck what he says. It's only one word, it wouldn't kill anyone so shut the fuck up and stop crying over ONE WORD!

[luvinlife66]

I'm looking at the lyrics that came with the CD, a very reliable source if you ask me.

It's "first breath."

So let's all just come down, yeah?

[xxamortentia39]

wtf no??

[hunter5294623]

dude u are inccorect on the first part of wasted its its 2:45 the baby takes a SCARCE breath not 1st

[whitney813]

basically, i don't care. get over it!

[XxAzNbOiIxX]

Dude, there is something wrong with your ear. It 1st, not scarce. I dunno where that came from.

[SpeshOnCampus]

are u fucking demented lol? it clearly says his first breath. cause his scarce breath doesnt make sence. lemme guess. u failed english? poor kid.

[torninpeices]

its takes a scarce breath. not that it really matter but it does make sense

baby takes A scarce breath

[Hwknight]

its baby takes his first breath

[BandxOfxBrothers]

Are you completely stupid, or just partially deaf?

[hsm21998]

the baby takes his first breath

[xxamortentia39]

lmaoo.

[ThePeanutBuddha]

@hunter5294623 Ok, man, not like it matters, but you can obviously hear that he says first. Also, it should be quite clear that it's first due to the context provided in the very next line of the song. Regardless, lettuce all just listen and enjoy.

[ribbedlovex3]

its funny that the music is all happy and the lyrics are kinda sad.. lol woah.

[blackhawks2009]

Yhea, weird, but still one of my favorite songs.

[Kailynnxinfinity]

Lmao.

I love how you are all arguing about the lyrics and the meaning.

1. If you are smart enough,

The meaning shouldn't be hard to comprehend.

2. So what? If you know the song, then you know the correct lyrics.

omgah.

[thecrimescene]

personally i think the 1st part is about death and what not

1. The baby dies in the hostpital

2. the boy is fooling around with his buddies and passes away (probably in a car accident)

3.a man passes away with cancer

whereas i believe the second part is about taking things for granted

especially when he says "He didn't love his kids and he didn' love his wife"

so all in all it ties in the title, because i think it means like "wasted" lives

[Brunettebabii123]

I think it's about like.. someones life.. and how they feel about it.

[M3TROxSTATIONx2]

this song is soo sad! but yet i cant stop singing it! i lovee it!

[boicrzy76]

it actually says "He thought he had his whole life"

[MHSclown]

um im not sure but i think its about a car full of people with a 16 year old driver and they all ended up dying. Thats just what it sounds like to me.

[Fantastical11]

this sang is awesome but its so sad esp. the first line :(

[hippie4life009]

how is the first line the only sad thing in this song. wow.

[ditzy94]

we are on the line

is wrong

its were on the run

[Ella1146]

Who gives if its nobody, the body or buddy...just look up the lyrics and do your thing. lol.

[monsterbmxing]

"the body knows what happens if he turns to the right

the body in the car wouldn't die that night"

It's supposed to be....

"nobody knows what happens if he turns to the right nobody in the car wouldn't die that night"

[Awwesomenessness]

the first part confuses me.

[AnimeAndi]

its about the baby is new born

the baby takes his first breath

but only has a few left

the father gets a call

in the middleof the night

his baby is dead

his breath gets short and his chest gets tight

[Fantastical11]

i dont get this song but i love it!

[searching4destiny]

"he never saw it coming

but he had his own life"

You got that wrong too..

it's

"He never saw it coming, Thought he had his whole life"

[razor191919]

GEe... get over it -.-

[hottieblue2]

um let me correct that for hes saying nobody

ya idiot

[Lollipop11Wonder]

the body knows what happens if he turns to the right

the body in the car wouldn't die that night

Sorry, that's wrong.

It's Nobody , not the body.

Not trying to be rude , misspelling is just a pet peeve of mine.

[aaronhotchocolate]

lol not to be rude but ur wrong also. its "But he"

16 driving to fast, takes a turn to the left it would be his last, but he knows what happens if he turns to the right, his buddy in the car would have died that night. lol :P

[binxi18]

lol i dont think thats right either !! i think its "nobody" ^_^ definitely doesnt sound like "his buddy"

[ThisIsForMeghan]

Oh my gosh. No one knows these lyrics.

"Not to be rude, but..." it's not "his buddy in the car would've died that night."

There is clearly no "s" there; it's "nobody," not "his buddy."

This is beyond annoying.

[bridget2195]

[alybobali712]

this songs AMAZING!

[AgentTaryn007]

I love this song.

The part about the baby always gets me.

I think it might be about the same three people over and over again.

Like the first paragraph is the first person.

Then the first one after the chorus.

Then the first one after the chorus again.

It's all one person, you know?

But maybe not.

[funnymusicvideos88]

this one sucks cock fuck i hate this song

[homeschoolmom3]

i LOVE this song it's

SO SAD=)

[gdmichaela]

its about different people, not the same person.

its about living a life then something tragic happens and your life is wasted

[MeloDsmiles3]

I just heard this song yesterday and was completely amazed...Cartel just works it out with the marching band thing..awesome!

[musicrulesyeah]

this song is so awsome its like always stuck in my head!!!!

[spursrock2121]

i love it but i dont really get it...are they al about the same person or a bunch of people?

[JustCallMeNukka]

I think it's about a bunch of other people.

I was kinda confused too.

But I'm not really sure. O.O

[EmoPunkRockerYo]

i was wondering the same thing...

[Lobos1597]

i think its about a baby then he almost dies then he grwos up to a teen and almost gets into a car accident then hes a adult and he dies of canser and his life was wasted thats wat it is!! i listen to this song sooo much thats how i no

[beccajo22]

i love this song soo much! it has good memories! and i was wondering the same thing about this song? thanks for finally giving me a description for this song!!! thank ya!

[Lobos1597]

this song is soo good so i listen to it all the time and finally figured out wat they were sayin!!

[xxcomputercrazyxx]

It's about different people.

The song is saying that all these different people's lives were wasted.

[Lobos1597]

umm no its not

[Panth3rdash]

What do you think its about then?

[JACKIIExBABIIEx3]

its not aboutt differenttt ppl bc if yu listenn too thee songgg & itsz lyrics its saying he had cancerrr he was sickk in thee morningg & diedd in thee nighttt
