Intro: "I wish, I wish, I wish" 3x's
Talking: To every city, every hood, and every block,
ghetto americca.

1st verse: Rolling through the hood, just stopped by
to say whats up, And to let you know your baby boy
ain't doing so tough Eventhough you past going on
four long years I still wake up late at night crying
tears, Just thinking about those days when you used
to talk to me ????? while I am sipping on this
hennessy, And remember we'd brag on how rich we
would be and get up out this hood just like a
peasant see.

Bridge: And now you hear my songs on the radio when
they play Oh and I can't believe my ears in what
everybodies saying Oh and I tell boy folks don't
know the half, I would give it all up just to take
one ride, with you And how we used to kick it on the
front porch with you, and how i used to lay back and
smoke w**d, and all the little baby powdered joints
we'd do and now I'm just missing you.

Chorus: (OH) I wish I could hold you now, (Oh I) I
wish that I can touch you now (OH I) Wish that I
could talk to you, and be with you somehow, I know
you're in a better place, eventhough I can't see
your face, (I know) I know your smiling down on me
saying everything will be ok. And if I make it out
this thug life I'll see you again someday. (I wish,
I wish, I wish)

2nd verse: Every since this money come there's been
nothing but stress, Sometimes I wish that I could
just trade in my success, ya'll look at me and say,
" Boy he's been blessed" But ya'll don't see the
inside of my unhappiness, and man I swear this sh*t
get heavy like a ton, Thats why ya'll see me
shooting this real sh*t off like a gun, You might
wonder how my friends would treat me now, If I
wasn't iced up with a bently, and a house, Thats
why fake a** n*ggas get fake a** digits and fake
a**players get a real playa hating them. How did I
go platinum and ya'll a**es come around, but ya'll
don't want to ring a bell when my sh*t is going
down

Bridge: And now you hear my songs on the radio
when they play Oh and I can't believe my ears in
what everybodies saying Boy I tell you folks don't
know the half, I would give it all up just to take
one ride, with you And how I used to hoop off in
the tournament with you, and how I used to club
hop on weekends with you, The family called the
morning of a tragic end...my condolence.

Chorus: (OH) I wish I could hold you now, (Oh I) I
wish that I can touch you now (OH I) Wish that I
could talk to you, and be with you somehow, I
know you're in a better place, eventhough I can't
see your face, (I know) I know your smiling down on
me saying everything will be ok. And if I make it
out this thug life I'll see you again someday. (I
wish, I wish, I wish)

3rd verse: Voices in my head be telling me to come
to church, That the Lord is the only way for you
to stop the hurt Dreaming of windows black tinted
like a hurst Waking up to light sometimes seems
worst And all I ever really wanted to be was a
better man, And I try to keep it real with my
homies and for me to save the world I don't
understand how did I become a leader of a billion
fans.

Brigde:And now you hear my songs on the radio when
they play Oh and I can't believe my ears in what
everybodies saying Boy I tell you folks don't know
the half, I would give it all up just to take one
ride, with you And how I used to street preform on
Fridays with you, and how i'd go to church on
Easter sundays with you instead of ya'll throwing
them bows at me, somebody pray for me.

Chorus:(OH) I wish I could hold you now, (Oh I) I
wish that I can touch you now (OH I) Wish that I
could talk to you, and be with you somehow, I know
you're in a better place, eventhough I can't see
your face, (I know) I know your smiling down on me
saying everything will be ok. And if I make it out
this thug life I'll see you again someday. (I wish,
I wish, I wish)

Come on and braid my hair
