Lyrics below. Somewhere in the world right now, a dev is looking longingly out of their office window thinking about all of the side projects they never finished.
This song was mixed/mastered by YLA ( / producedwithlove )
Lyrics:
(Chorus)
Always on the back of my mind
All the cool projects I abandoned on the side
If only I had some more time
Maybe I would get to go live
One day, I swear I’ll ship it
Someday, I’ll really finish
One day, I’ma do what I say
But today is not that day
Had a new app idea, yeah it’s legit
It’ll be a hit, damn I’m gonna be rich
They’ll talk about me like one of the greats
I’ll be chilling with Bezos and Bill Gates
Talked about it with my dev friends
All they wanna know is what language I’ma use on the backend
Went and talked about with some other buddies
All they wanna know is how it’s gonna make money
Usually my side projects never get finished
But this time it’s gonna be different
I’ma really ship it, already told everyone I know
All I gotta do is write the code
So I bought a domain off of Namecheap
And thought about the team structure, but it’s just me
Whipping up cards on a Trello board
I got 300 tickets for the MVP
(Chorus)
Always on the back of my mind
All the cool projects I abandoned on the side
If only I had some more time
Maybe I would get to go live
One day, I swear I’ll ship it
Someday, I’ll really finish
One day, I’ma do what I say
But today is not that day
Spent an hour trying to name my repo
Spent two hours trying to make my logo
Spent three days on a refactor
Perfecting code that didn’t even matter
I haven’t been working that long
But I get sad looking at my backlog
I think I’m like 3 percent done
Honestly I’m not having fun
Gave a couple friends a little demo
I could tell that they were thinking “hell no”
I gotta rethink this through
Plus I got a full time job to do
This project ain’t getting me paid
So I think it’s time to tuck it away
But it’s okay, I still think this app could be great
I’ll come back and finish it another day
(Chorus)
Always on the back of my mind
All the cool projects I abandoned on the side
If only I had some more time
Maybe I would get to go live
One day, I swear I’ll ship it
Someday, I’ll really finish
One day, I’ma do what I say
But today is not that day
I finally finished, go on Hacker News and put up a post
But that s**t got 0 upvotes
And somebody left a comment
Telling me my homepage ain’t responsive
Someone else replied saying my idea was crap
And they would never ever use my app
Now that’s too bad, I really thought I’d make stacks
Like PullReminders, why couldn’t I think of that?
After all those hours that I put in
Staying up late when I shouldn’t
This is what it came down to, but I don’t mind
Real indie hackers never kill -9
I just gotta go and brainstorm
Get a new domain and a new Trello board
Then I’ll be on my way
With another project for another day
(Chorus)
Always on the back of my mind
All the cool projects I abandoned on the side
If only I had some more time
Maybe I would get to go live
One day, I swear I’ll ship it
Someday, I’ll really finish
One day, I’ma do what I say
But today is not that day
