R KELLY - I Wish lyrics

rate me

To the homies that we lost r kelly featuring boo and gotti

Yo' what up my n

You know I was in the hood

I just thought I'd stop by

Holler at you for a minute

Pour out a little liquor or some'in'

N we done been through a lot of s together

From runnin' these streets to bein' down for whatever

And now that you're gone I got a whole lot of s to

Tell you

Things I should've said way back when we was younger

Remember when we used to roll hand in hand

And now I'm trippin' on how I really miss you man

And remember when you and me would say

We'd get up out this hood and everything would be okay

It's all good now my n

We out the hood now mmm

We had the same ideas but not the same careers

We shared the same old laugh and now the same tears

You were my homie my sconey my roni

My n and never placed no b before me

Man I sear to God I love for that s

Why'd you have to get hit

Where was I what time was it

You were supposed to get older with me

On stage hands on shoulders with me

Coppin' them range rovers with me

Sittin' on thangs and smokin' trees

And if it wasn't for the will that God had made

I'd turn back the hands of time and take your place

Sittin' here sippin' on this hennessy

Just thinkin' about how much you meant to me my n

Even when you're gone you will always be my n

When you went home I'm still missin' you my n

I'm feelin' like the timing was wrong my n

I know you're smilin' down sayin' carry on my n

Some times my nights can get long my n

Some times I feel God did me wrong my n

So I had to write a song my n

Just to let you know that you're still my n

I wish I wish I wish oh i

I wish I wish I wish

Little son is lookin' at me like 'where is my daddy '

And your 13 year old daughter is mad 'cause she

Understands

Promised your mama I'd take care of the family

But she's so hurt she turns away my helpin' hands

Damn I wish your a was here my n

To grow that gray beard and smoke that cigar my n

And we would talk about you gettin' up out this game

And you would tell me how it keeps callin' your name

We used to ride ride ride

Never afraid to die die die

But some times we cry cry cry

Askin' the lord why why why

They're tearin' down these projects

We were homies for like 20 thug years

Sat in church and cried the same thug tears

You remember when vibe world premier

How we used to share the same old gear

And remember when you and me would say

We'd get up out this hood and everything would be okay

It's all good now my n

We out the hood now

It's so easy for folks to say 'rob just live on'

When I'm dyin' every second that you're gone

Nevertheless I try my best to be strong

Hopin' you said your prayers before you went on home

When we stood on these blocks and just shot the breeze

We'd slapbox dead in the middle of streets

And if a fight broke out you would take up for me

You're all I have left of these ghetto memories

I wish I wish I wish oh i

I wish I wish I wish

Uh uh yo' dog I can't explain how I miss you

We stayed together coppin' cane poppin' pistols

I miss you most

Puttin' the doo rag over your bean head

Even out the hood on the scene you brag whoa

Comin' up off the fiends for bags

Runnin' up out the cleaners drag

You was the closest n I had

Look how we stayed aces

Hustled made big faces

I wish we could trade places

F givin' you ice I'd rather give you life

And the things that I had I'd give you twice oh

Yeah

So what the deal my n I know you holdin' it down

If you could see me you would say I'm talkin' soft

Right now

But it's hard for me to see when i'mma see you again

And I know it's f ed up I gotta talk through this

Pen

But you'd died for the love of the dough

The love of the block 16 you was runnin' the spot

Boy your mama used to hate how we stood on the curb

Hangin' with wild thug n s smokin' the herb mmm

Hmm hmm

I'm gonna keep pourin' this liquor and that's my word

This here is for n s that be flippin' them birds

Oh

Word up

Even though you know you will always be my n

Whoa whoa oh oh

Even though you're gone you will also be my n

I'm feelin' like the time when I'm high my n

I'm feelin' like time

I'm strung out sayin' 'radio please don't take the

N out this song

Let it play on go on on

So I had to write this song my n

Just to let you know that you're still my n
