[00:01.72] I wish, I wish, I wish
[00:03.70] To every city
[00:04.68] I wish, I wish, I wish
[00:06.46] Every hood
[00:06.99]
[00:07.50] I wish, I wish, I wish
[00:08.84] And every block
[00:09.56]
[00:10.46] Ghetto America
[00:11.34]
[00:12.82] Rollin' through the hood
[00:13.67] Just stopped by to say, what's up
[00:15.25]
[00:15.78] Came to let you know
[00:16.54] Your baby boy ain't doing so tough
[00:18.44]
[00:19.09] And even though you passed
[00:20.18] Going on four long years
[00:21.95] Still waking up late at night,
[00:23.59] Crying tears
[00:24.71]
[00:25.44] Just thinking about those days
[00:27.02] You used to talk to me
[00:28.64] Smilin', while I'm sippin'
[00:29.71] On this Hennesey
[00:30.70]
[00:31.48] And remember,
[00:32.17] We'd brag on how rich we would be
[00:34.68] To get up out this hood
[00:35.96] Was like a fantasy
[00:36.81] And now you hear my songs,
[00:38.06] The radio is bangin'
[00:39.77] Oh, I can't believe my ears
[00:41.09] And what everybody's sayin'
[00:42.98]
[00:43.72] And boy, I'll tell ya'll
[00:44.60] Folks don't know the half
[00:46.09] I would give it all up
[00:47.49] Just to take one ride
[00:49.04] (With you)
[00:49.98] How I used to kick it
[00:51.19] On the front porch
[00:52.12] (With you)
[00:52.74] And how I used to lay back
[00:54.23] And smoke weed
[00:54.86] (With you)
[00:55.64] And all the little basement
[00:56.84] Party joints we'd do
[00:58.81] Now I'm just missing you
[01:00.82] How I wish
[01:01.87] I wish that I could hold you now (oh, I)
[01:04.96] I wish that I could touch you now (oh, I)
[01:07.78] I wish that I could talk to you
[01:09.62]
[01:10.17] Be with you somehow
[01:12.18]
[01:12.86] I know you're in a better place
[01:16.20]
[01:16.93] Even though I can't see your face
[01:19.09]
[01:19.99] I know you're smiling down on me
[01:22.08] Sayin' everything's okay
[01:24.99]
[01:28.14] And if I make it out this thug life
[01:29.95] I'll see you again someday
[01:31.49]
[01:32.76] I wish, I wish, I wish
[01:34.87]
[01:35.78] I wish, I wish, I wish
[01:38.00] Now ever since this money come
[01:39.11] Been nothing but stress
[01:40.15]
[01:40.87] Sometimes I wish I could
[01:42.06] Just trade in my success
[01:43.26]
[01:44.07] Y'all look at me and say,
[01:45.62] Boy you've been blessed
[01:47.05] But y'all don't see the inside
[01:48.49] Of my unhappiness
[01:49.59]
[01:50.12] Man, I swear this shit
[01:51.23] Gets heavy like a ton
[01:52.64] That's why you hear me shootin'
[01:53.86] This real shit off like a gun
[01:55.93] Hmm, I wonder how my friends
[01:57.48] Would treat me now
[01:58.90] If I wasn't iced up with a Bentley
[02:00.77] And a house
[02:01.69] That's why fake-ass niggas
[02:03.09] Get fake-ass digits
[02:04.47] And fake-ass playas
[02:06.18] Get a real playa hatin' 'em
[02:08.33] 'Honey Love' goes platinum
[02:09.68] And y'all ass come around
[02:11.22] But y'all don't wanna raise
[02:12.35] The roof until my shit is going down
[02:14.21] And now you hear my songs
[02:15.24] The radio is bangin'
[02:16.80] Oh, I can't believe my ears
[02:18.21] And what everybody's sayin'
[02:19.85]
[02:20.86] And boy, I'll tell ya'll
[02:21.85] Folks don't know the half
[02:23.23] I would give it all up
[02:24.53] Just to take one ride
[02:26.05] (With you)
[02:27.04] How I used to hoop off
[02:28.45] In them tournaments
[02:29.20] (With you)
[02:29.97] And how I used to club
[02:31.16] Hop on weekends
[02:31.96] (With you)
[02:32.90] Your family called the morning
[02:34.22] Of the tragic end
[02:36.16] Damn, my condolences
[02:38.29]
[02:38.85] I wish that I could hold you now (oh)
[02:41.48]
[02:41.99] I wish that I could touch you now (oh)
[02:44.95] I wish that I could talk to you
[02:46.86]
[02:47.40] Be with you somehow
[02:49.13]
[02:49.90] (Oh, I know yeah)
[02:51.03] I know you're in a better place (oh)
[02:54.00] Even though I can't see your face (oh)
[02:56.41]
[02:57.01] I know you're smiling down on me
[02:59.03] Sayin' everything's okay
[03:01.99]
[03:05.25] And if I make it out this thug life
[03:07.15] I'll see you again someday
[03:08.85]
[03:09.93] I wish, I wish, I wish
[03:11.94]
[03:12.95] I wish, I wish, I wish
[03:15.21] Voices in my head be telling me
[03:16.90] To come to church
[03:18.11] Saying, the Lord is the only way
[03:19.53] For you to stop the hurt
[03:21.15] Dreaming of windows,
[03:22.54] Black-tinted like a hurst
[03:24.42] When waking up to life,
[03:25.78] Sometimes it seems worst
[03:27.97] And all I ever wanted
[03:29.06] Is to be a better man
[03:31.20] And I try to keep it real
[03:32.65] With my homies man
[03:34.32] For me to save the world,
[03:35.74] I don't understand
[03:37.24] How did I become the leader
[03:38.58] Of a billion fans
[03:39.27] And now you hear my songs
[03:40.34] The radio is bangin'
[03:41.63] Oh, I can't believe my ears
[03:43.19] And what everybody's sayin'
[03:45.03]
[03:46.02] And boy, I tell you
[03:46.87] Folks don't know the half
[03:48.58] I would give it all up
[03:49.73] Just to take one ride
[03:50.94] (With you)
[03:51.85] How I used to street perform on Friday
[03:54.15] (With you)
[03:54.90] And how I'd go to church on Easter Sunday
[03:56.98] (With you)
[03:57.78] Instead of y'all throwing them stones at me
[04:00.76]
[04:01.90] Somebody pray for me
[04:03.11] Oh, I wish that I could hold you now
[04:05.89] (oh, I)
[04:07.01] I wish that I could touch you now (oh, I)
[04:10.12] I wish that I could talk to you
[04:11.66] (talk to you)
[04:12.50] Be with you somehow
[04:13.98]
[04:14.67] (Still I know)
[04:15.56]
[04:16.17] But I know you're in a better place
[04:18.00] (In a better place)
[04:19.43] Even though I can't see your face (oh, I)
[04:22.19] I know you're smiling down on me (smilin')
[04:24.54] Saying everything's okay
[04:26.05]
[04:26.80] To all of my homies
[04:28.21] I wish that I could hold you now (oh)
[04:31.30] I wish that I could touch you now
[04:33.06] (right now)
[04:34.19] I wish that I could talk to you
[04:35.77] (talk to you)
[04:36.74] Be with you (be with you)
[04:38.09] Somehow
[04:38.27]
[04:38.93] (Somehow I know)
[04:40.56] But I know you're in a better place (oh)
[04:43.23] Even though I can't see your face
[04:45.15] (See your face)
[04:46.58] I know you're smiling down on me
[04:48.17] (smilin')
[04:48.57] Saying everything's okay
[04:50.47]
[04:51.05] My mom, I'm at the crossroads
[04:52.95] I wish that I could hold you now
[04:54.45] (of my my, my, my, life)
[04:57.42]
[04:58.79] I wish that I could talk to you
[05:00.15] Come on and braid my hair
[05:01.68]
[05:03.39] Come on and braid my hair
[05:04.98]
[05:06.39] Come on and braid my hair
[05:08.35]
[05:09.21] Come on and braid my hair
[05:11.47]
[05:12.40] Come on and braid my hair,
[05:14.74] My hair
[05:15.88]
[05:16.80] I wish that I could hold you now
[05:18.63]
[05:19.85] I wish that I could touch you now
[05:21.58]
[05:22.92] I wish that I could talk to you
[05:24.67]
[05:25.35] Be with you
[05:26.48] Somehow
