I Wish - Remix (To The Homies That We Lost) (Clean Version) - R. Kelly[00:00:00]
Yo what up,[00:00:31]
You know I was in the hood[00:00:34]
I just thought I'd stop by[00:00:35]
Holler at you for a minute[00:00:37]
Pour out a little liquor or something[00:00:39]
We done been through[00:00:41]
A lot of shit together[00:00:42]
From running these streets[00:00:44]
To being down for whatever[00:00:45]
And now that you're gone[00:00:47]
I got a whole lot of shit to tell you[00:00:48]
Things I should've said way back[00:00:50]
When we was younger[00:00:51]
Remember when we used to roll hand in hand[00:00:53]
And now I'm tripping on[00:00:55]
How I really miss you, man[00:00:57]
And remember when you and me would say[00:00:58]
We'd get up out this hood[00:01:01]
And everything would be okay[00:01:02]
It's all good now[00:01:04]
We out the hood now[00:01:06]
We had the same ideas,[00:01:09]
But not the same careers[00:01:10]
We shared the same old laugh,[00:01:12]
And now the same tears[00:01:14]
You were my homie, my sconey, my Roni[00:01:15]
My nigga and never placed[00:01:18]
No bitch before me[00:01:20]
Man, I swear to[00:01:21]
God I love you for that shit[00:01:22]
Why'd you have to get hit[00:01:23]
Where was I, what time was it[00:01:25]
You were supposed to get older with me[00:01:27]
On stage, hands on shoulders with me[00:01:30]
Copping them Range Rovers with me[00:01:32]
Sitting onthangs and smoking trees[00:01:35]
And if it wasn't for the will[00:01:38]
That God had made[00:01:39]
I'd turn back the hands of time[00:01:41]
And take your place[00:01:42]
Sitting here sipping on this Hennessy[00:01:44]
Just thinking about[00:01:46]
How much you meant to me[00:01:47]
Even when you're gone[00:01:49]
You will always be my nigga[00:01:50]
When you went home[00:01:52]
I'm still missing you, my nigga[00:01:53]
I'm feeling like the timing was wrong, my nigga[00:01:55]
I know you're smiling[00:01:57]
Down saying carry on, my nigga[00:01:58]
Sometimes my nights[00:02:00]
Can get long, my nigga[00:02:01]
Sometimes I feel[00:02:03]
God did me wrong, my nigga[00:02:04]
So I had to write a song, my nigga[00:02:06]
Just to let you know[00:02:09]
That you're still my nigga[00:02:10]
I wish, I wish, I wish[00:02:13]
I wish, I wish, I wish[00:02:15]
Little son is looking at me like,[00:02:18]
"Where is my daddy?"[00:02:19]
And your 13-year old daughter is mad[00:02:20]
'Cause she understands[00:02:22]
Promised your mama[00:02:23]
I'd take care of the family[00:02:25]
But she's so hurt,[00:02:26]
She turns away my helping hands[00:02:27]
Damn, I wish your ass was here, my nigga[00:02:29]
To grow that gray beard[00:02:31]
And smoke that cigar, my nigga[00:02:32]
And we would talk about[00:02:34]
You getting up out this game[00:02:35]
And you would tell me[00:02:37]
How it keeps calling you name[00:02:38]
(We used to ride-ride-ride)[00:02:40]
Never afraid to (Die-die-die)[00:02:41]
But sometimes we (Cry-cry-cry)[00:02:44]
Asking the Lord (Why-why-why)[00:02:47]
They're tearing down these projects[00:02:50]
We were homies for like 20 thug years[00:02:51]
Sat in church and cried the same thug tears[00:02:54]
You remember when Vibe World Premier[00:02:57]
How we used to share the same old gear[00:03:00]
And remember when you and me would say[00:03:03]
We'd get up out this hood[00:03:05]
And everything would be okay[00:03:06]
(It's all good now) My nigga[00:03:08]
We out the hood now[00:03:11]
It's so easy for folks to say,[00:03:13]
"Rob, just live on"[00:03:15]
When I'm dying every second[00:03:17]
That you're gone[00:03:18]
Nevertheless I try my best to be strong[00:03:20]
Hoping you said your prayers[00:03:22]
Before you went on home[00:03:24]
When we stood on these blocks[00:03:25]
And just shot the breeze[00:03:26]
We'd slapbox dead in the middle of streets[00:03:28]
And if a fight broke out,[00:03:31]
You would take up for me[00:03:32]
You're all I have left[00:03:34]
Of these ghetto memories[00:03:35]
I can't explain how I miss you[00:03:42]
We stayed together, copping cane,[00:03:43]
Poppin pistols[00:03:45]
I miss you most[00:03:46]
Putting the doo rag over your bean head[00:03:47]
Even out the hood on the scene you brag[00:03:50]
Coming up off the fiends for bags[00:03:52]
Running up out the cleaners, drag[00:03:54]
You was the closest nigga I had[00:03:57]
Look how we stayed aces[00:03:59]
Hustled, made big faces[00:04:00]
I wish we could trade places[00:04:02]
F**k giving you ice, I'd rather give you life[00:04:05]
And the thigns that I had, I'd give you twice[00:04:07]
So what the deal, my nigga,[00:04:10]
I know you holding it down[00:04:11]
If you could see me you would say[00:04:13]
I'm talking soft right now[00:04:14]
But it's hard for me to say[00:04:15]
When I'm a see you again[00:04:17]
And I know it's f**ked up,[00:04:18]
I gotta talk through this pen[00:04:20]
But you're died for the love of the dough[00:04:21]
The love of the block,[00:04:24]
16 you was running the spot[00:04:25]
Boy, your mama used to hate[00:04:27]
How we stood on the curb[00:04:28]
Hanging with wild thug niggas,[00:04:30]
Smoking the herb[00:04:31]
I'm gonna keep pouring this liquor[00:04:32]
And that's my word[00:04:34]
This here is for niggas[00:04:35]
That be flipping them birds[00:04:37]
Word up![00:04:38]
Even though you know[00:04:39]
You will always be my nigga[00:04:40]
Even though you're gone[00:04:41]
You will also be my nigga[00:04:42]
I'm feeling like the time[00:04:44]
When I'm high, my nigga[00:04:45]
I'm feeling like the time[00:04:46]
I'm strung out, saying[00:04:48]
"Radio, please don't take[00:04:49]
The nigga outthis song"[00:04:50]
Let it play on, go on, on[00:04:52]
So I had to write this song, my nigga[00:04:56]
Just to let you know[00:04:58]
That you're still my nigga[00:04:59]
