I wish, I wish, I wish

To every city

I wish, I wish, I wish

Every hood

I wish, I wish, I wish

And every block

I wish, I wish, I wish

Good Ol' America!



Rollin' through the hood

Just stopped by to say what's up

Came to let you know

That your baby boy ain't doing so tough

And even though you passed

Going on four long years

Still waking up late at night crying tears

Just thinking about those days

You used to talk to me

Smilin' while I'm sippin' on this Hennesy

And remember we bragged on how rich we would be

To get up out this hood was like a fantasy



1 - And now you hear my songs the radio is bangin'

Oh I can't believe my ears

And what everybody's sayin'

And boy I'll tell you

Folks don't know the half

I would give it all up

Just to take one ride



(With you)

How I used to kick it on the front porch

(With you)

And how I used to lay back and smoke weed

(With you)

And all the little days and party joints we'd do

Now I'm just missing you

How I wish



2 - I wish that I could hold you now

I wish that I could touch you now

I wish that I could talk to you

Be with you somehow

I know you're in a better place

And you know I can see your face

I know you're smiling down on me

Saying everything's okay

And if I never leave this thug life

I'll see you again someday

I wish, I wish, I wish

I wish, I wish, I wish



Now ever since this money come

Been nothing but stress

Sometimes I wish I could trade in my success

Y'all look at me and say boy you've been blessed

But y'all don't see the inside of my unhappiness

Man I swear this shit gets h
