Thug Memorials Video (MV)

(I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish, I-) Uh, uh, uh
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish, I- everything's okay)

And I was so lost for words, couldn't even cry up at your funeral
I come from that corner where the hustlers trap and shooters shoot
Straight-eights and Scat Packs, they ain't slidin' in no Subaru
Turn you to a savage, what them hard times'll do to you
All my homies died young, smokin' 'til my mind numb
Steppin' like a marchin' band, might hit they block with nine drums
Took a lot of losses right where me and all my guys hung
Opps talkin' shit, that left my pride stung, uh

I wish that I could hold you tight, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
I'm grippin' on this pole tonight, uh (I wish, I wish, I-)
I'm connected to your soul tonight (I wish, I wish, I wish)
Just hopin' everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I-)

Uh, Tim-Tim was my brother, we was suitin' up for graduation
I saw twin 'nem in them caskets, told myself, "I gotta make it"
Makin' moves and stackin' payments, SRTs in traffic racin'
Was most happy back in the day, it seem like now I'm tryna fake it (I wish, I-)
Twenty deep with all my cousins, tweakin' in my granny basement
Hot nights in the summertime with no sheet on that mattress bakin'
Now we let them choppers beat, I swear I love that kind of cadence
Money huntin', no time for waitin', fifty M's, I'm tryna chase it
'Member wasn't no care at all, runnin' through them projects
Why they ain't show the same love when I ain't beat the odds yet?
Masked up with no gloves, we send his ass where God at
We took over for the block, was fearless on that conquest
All I gotta say is go, now watch how all my soldiers ride
Treat him like he Tre, gon' let him out if he don't wanna slide
Shots hit him, was still in shock, that's why he left with open eyes
I'm from the trenches, deep up in that grass where all the cobras hide

I wish that I could hold you tight, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
I'm grippin' on this pole tonight, uh (I wish, I wish, I-)
I'm connected to your soul tonight (I wish, I wish, I wish)
Just hopin' everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I-)

Wish I could be with you somehow
Can't put my gun down 'cause I'm the one now
Mama, I'm my brother's keeper, I won't let your son drown
Always fightin' with the reaper like I keep some gloves 'round, uh (I wish, I-)
I'm takin' drugs until I'm incoherent, loved ones steady disappearin'
But for you, know I'm forever thuggin', I can feel your spirit
Racin' to the finish line, look up and I can hear 'em cheerin'
For feelings that I lost to gang, the only thing I'm still endearin'

I wish that I could hold you tight, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
I'm grippin' on this pole tonight, uh (I wish, I wish, I-)
I'm connected to your soul tonight (I wish, I wish, I wish)
Just hopin' everything's okay (I wish, I-)

(I wish, I wish, I wish)
And if I make it out this thug- I'll see you again some day (I wish, I wish, I-)
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
That everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I-)
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish, I-)
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish)
