I Wish - Travis Thompson

I want my name right up there with them

Want my pain upholstered to pen

Is it, but now we heard your ass been depressed

So we threw a little tissue in the all-black Benz

And I ball two walls of a broke-out rim

Running fives on my demons in a home-court gym

Like, «Ooh, I run this bitch

Fuck off my court, this grown man biz»

I sip on Jameson alone a lot

Did it to myself again

Them boys who used to own the block

On flights collecting wealth again

But that don’t make the lonely stop

So, let it all fall down

Need some dinner for the ballot in a all-black gown

Letterman legends is on the keys background

I swear, it’s all so vivid

'Fore I left and now you wanna call back trippin'

Just like, «Damn, I didn’t ask you to do all that»

She like, «What, you ain’t think that I knew all that?»

«It's a courtesy, baby, you put me through all that»

She like, «Shit, wish you the best, wish you good luck»

I wish

I wish I was up, hey

Wish I had a million

Wish my mama had enough, hey

Wish that when I get it I could give my friends a cut, hey

I wish, I wish, I wish they told me, «Boy, you wish too much», hey

I just wanna be up

I wish I was up, hey

Wish I had a million

Wish my mama had enough, hey

Wish that when I get it I could give my friends a cut, hey

I wish, I wish, I wish they told me, «Boy, you wish too much», hey

I just wanna be up

If the high-house roll, then so do I

Play it back, drop three like 40 times

I get high all day, waste shorty’s time

And y’all still ask plugs, «What forty buy?»

Been in/out States on someone dime

I don’t know, ain’t met, but know they hype

And the sun come up like every morning

So I’m still act like I stole they light

But there’s too much on my plate

To look at yours and ever worry 'bout some past mistakes I

Made before I knew that life was more than just my street

More than sipping on my stoop

More than pissing off my teach

Bring the bucket through valet

I feel like Bayside with the screech (Skrrt)

Got a Kelly in my grip

Find Eliza for the three

If my wife for company

I just wanna be up

Wish I had a million

Wish I felt like I’m enough

I just wanna be up

I wish I was up, hey

Wish I had a million

Wish my mama had enough, hey

Wish that when I get it I could give my friends a cut, hey

I wish, I wish, I wish they told me, «Boy, you wish too much», hey

I just wanna be up

I wish I was up, hey

Wish I had a million

Wish my mama had enough, hey

Wish that when I get it I could give my friends a cut, hey

I wish, I wish, I wish they told me, «Boy, you wish too much», hey

I just wanna be up
