wish the way i was living could stop, serving rocks,
knowing the cops is hot when i'm on the block, and i
wish my brother woulda made bail,
so i won't have to travel 6 hours to see him in jail, and i
wish that my grandmother wasn't sick,
or that we would just come up on some stacks and hit a lick, and i (i wish)
wish my homies wouldn't have to suffer,
when the streets get the upper hand on us and we lose a brother, and i
wish i could go deep in a zone,
and lift the spirits of the world with the words with in this song, and i (i wish)
wish i could teach a soul to fly,
take away the pain out cha hands and help you hold them hi, and i
wish my hommie butch was still alive
and on the day of his death we had never took that ride, and i (i wish)
wish god could protect us from the wrong
so that all the solders that were sent over seas come home
we will never break, though they devastate, we shall motivate,
and we gotta pray, all we got is faith.
instead of thinking about who gonna die to day,
the lord is gonna help you feel better, so you ain't gotta cry today.
sit at the light so long,
and then we gotta move straight forward, cuz we fight so strong,
so when right go wrong,
just say a little prayer, get ya money man, life go on!!!
let's hope!
cuz i'm hopeful, yes i am, hopeful for today,
take this music and use it
let it take you away,
and be hopeful (hopeful) and he'll make a way
i know it ain't easy but that's okay.
cause we hopeful
i wish that you could show some love,
instead of hatin so much when you see some other people commin up (i wish)
i wish i could teach the world to sing,
watch the music and have 'em trippin of the joy i bring,(shiit)
i wish that we could hold hands,
listen instead of dissin lessons from a grown man, and i (i wish)
wish the families that lack, but got love, get some stacks
brand new shack and a lack that's on dubs, and i
wish we could keep achieving wonders,
see the vision of the world through the eyes of stevie wonder,(you feel me)(i wish)
and i hope all the kids eat,
and don't nobody in my family see six feet,(ya dig)
i hope them mothers stain' strong,
you can make it whether you wit him or your mans gone, and i (i wish)
wish i could give every celly some commissary,
and the po po bring the heat on them priest like they did r. kelly, and i
wish that doc could scream again
and bullets could reverse so pac and biggie breath again,(shit)(i wish)
then one day they could speak again,
i wish that we only saw good news every time we look at cnn,
i wish that we could never get the blues,
wish i could bring back the people that died, eddie two
i wish that we could walk a path, stay doin the right thing
hustle hard so the kids maintain up in the game,
let's hope
cuz i'm hopeful, yes i am, hopeful for today,
take this music and use it
let it take you away,
and
