[D#m]
[C#] I wish I wish
[A#m] To every [D#m] city
I wish I wish Every [C#] hood
And [G#] every [A#m] block Ghetto [C#] America
[F#] [C#] Throwin thru the hood
Just stop by to say what's up
And let you know your
Baby [F#] boy ain't [C#] doin so [F#] tough
And [C#] even though you've
Past gone on for a long year
Still wakin up late
In that quiet [D#m] tears
[C#] Just thinkin about those days
You used to talk to [F#] me
[C#] Smilin while I'm sippin
On this [D#m] Hennessy
[C#] And remember we'd brag on how rich we would be
Forget about this, it was like a [F#] fantasy
Can't you [C#] hear my song, it's already, it was made
Oh I can't [F#] believe my [C#] ears and what everybody's [F#] saying
[C#] Boy I tell you folks don't know the half
I would give it all up just to take one [D#m] ride With [C#] you
Now I used to kick it on the front porch With [F#] you
Now I [C#] used to lay back and smoke [F#] weed With [C#] you
All the little basement party joints we do
Now I'm just missing you, [D#m] how I [C#] wish
I wish that I could [A#m] hold you now
[F#] I wish that I could touch you [D#m] now
[F#] I wish that [C#] I could talk to you
Be [F#] with you somehow
[C#] I [D#m] know, [C#] I know you're in a [A#m] better place
[F#] Even though I can't see [C#] your face
[D#m] [C#] I know you're smiling down on me
[A#m] Saying [G#m] everything's [C#] okay
[D#m] [C#] And if I'm thinking [F#] of this love, I'll see you again [D#m] someday
[C#] Ever [F#] [C#]
[F#] [C#] since this money come, it's been nothing but stress
Sometimes I wish that I could just trade in my [D#m] success
[C#] Y'all look at me and say, boy you've been blessed
But y'all don't see the inside of my [D#m] unhappiness
[C#] Man I swear this shit gets heavy like a ton
That's why you [B] hear me shoot [C#] this real shit off like a [D#m] gun
[C#] Mmm I wonder how my friends would treat you now
If I [B] wasn't iced up, [C#] would've been in a house
[D#m] That's why [C#] fake ass niggas get fake ass digits
And [B] fake ass players get a [C#] real care [D#m] hating them
[C#] Honey love goes platinum and y'all act come around
But y'all don't wanna rake the roof until my shit is [F#] going down
I [C#] can't believe my song, hooray or whispay
Oh I can't [F#m] believe my [C#] ears and what everybody's [D#m] saying
[C#] Boy I tell you folks don't know the [A#m] half
[B] I would give it [F#] all up just [C#] to take one [F#] ride
Now I used to hoop [C#] off in the tournament
[B] Now I used to club [C#] hop on [D#m] weekends
Family calls the [C#] morning of a [F#] tragic end
[C#] Damn, [D#m] my condolences
[C#] I wish that I could [A#m] hold you now
[F#] I wish that I could touch you [D#m] now
[F#] I wish that [C#] I could talk to you
Be [F#] with you [C#] somehow
[D#m] I know [C#] you're in a [A#m] better place
[F#] Even God can't [C#] see your face
[D#m] I [C#] know you're smiling down on me
[A#m] And [G#m] everything's [C#] okay
[D#m] [C#] And if I'm begging [F#] you just look up
I'll see you again [D#m] someday
[C#] Voices in my head be telling me to come to church
Said the Lord is the only way for you to stop the [D#m] hurt
[C#] Dreaming of windows black tinted like a hearse
And waking up to life sometimes [F#] ain't [C#] worse
And all I ever wanted is to be a better man
And I try to keep it real [D#m] with my [C#] homies now
Want me to save the world I don't understand
How did I become the leader [F#] of a [C#] billion people
I can't believe my ears and what everybody's [F#] saying
[C#] Oh I can't believe my ears and what everybody's saying
Boy I tell you folks don't know the half
I would give it all up just to take one [F#] ride
[C#] Now I used to street perform on Fridays
[F#] Now I go to church [C#] on Easter [F#] Sunday
Instead of [C#] y'all throwing them phones at [G#m] me
[F#]
[C#] Somebody pray for [D#m] me
[C#] Oh shit I could hold [A#m] you now
Oh [F#] shit I could touch you now
[D#m] Oh [F#] shit [C#] I could talk to [A#m] you
[B] Even if somehow
[C#] Still I [D#m] [C#] know you're in a better [F#] place
Even God can't see [D#m] your face
Oh I'm [C#] smiling
[A#m] And [B] everything's okay
[C#] Oh [D#m] my [C#] homies Oh
[F#] Oh shit I could touch you now
[D#m] Oh [F#] shit [C#] I could talk to [A#m] you
