[Lyrics] R. Kelly I Wish 노래가사
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, Ghetto America!
Rollin' through the hood, Just stopped by to say what's up
And 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 playin'
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 basement 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, Even though I can't see your face
I know you're smiling down on me, Saying everything's okay
And if I make it out 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 heavy like a ton
That's why you hear me shootin', This real shit off like a gun
Hmm I wonder how my friends would treat me now
If I wasn't iced up with a Bentley and a house
That's why fake ass niggas get fake ass digits
And fake ass players get a real player hatin' 'em
Honey Love goes platinum and y'all ass come around
But y'all don't wanna raise the roof, Until my shit is going down
[Repeat 1]
(With you) How I used to hoop off in them tournaments
(With you) And how I used to club hop on weekends
(With you) Your family called the morning of the tragic end
Damn, my condolensces
[Repeat 2]
Voices in my head be telling me to come to church
Saying the Lord is the only way for you to stop the hurt
Dreaming of windows black tinted like a hearse
When waking up to life sometimes seems worst
And all I ever wanted is to be a better man
And I try to keep it real with my homies land
For me to save the world I don't understand
How did I become the leader of a billion fans?
[Repeat 1]
(With you) How I used to street perform on Friday
(With you) And how I used to go to church on Easter Sunday
(With you) Instead of you all throwing them stones at me
Somebody pray for me
[Repeat 2 till end]
