[Intro: Polo G, Choir, R. Kelly]
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
Duh, duh, no
Uh, uh, uh (I wish, I wish, I—)
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
Uh (I wish, I wish, everything's okay)

[Verse 1: Polo G]
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 sliding in no Subaru
Turn you to a savage, what them hard times'll do to you
All my homies died young, smoke until my mind numb
Stepping like a marching band, might hit they block with nine drums
Took a lot of losses right where me and all my guys hung
Opps talking s*it, that left my pride stung, uh

[Chorus: Polo G, Choir, R. Kelly]
I wish that I could hold you tight, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
I'm gripping on this pole tonight, uh (I wish, I wish, I—)
I'm connected to your soul tonight
Hoping everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I—)

[Verse 2: Polo G & Choir]
Uh, Tim-Tim was my brother, we was suiting up for graduation
I saw twingnem in them caskets, told myself, "I gotta make it"
Making moves and stacking payments, SRTs in traffic, racing
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, tweaking in my granny basement
Hot nights in the summertime with no sheet on that mattress, baking
Now we let them choppers beat, I swear I love that kind of cadence
Money hunting, no time for waiting
Fifty M's, I'm tryna chase it
'Member wasn't no care at all, running 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

[Chorus: Polo G, Choir, R. Kelly]
I wish that I could hold you tight, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
I'm gripping on this pole tonight, uh (I wish, I wish, I—)
I'm connected to your soul tonight
Hoping everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I—)

[Verse 3: Polo G & Choir]
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 fighting with the reaper like I keep some gloves 'round, uh (I wish, I—)
I'm taking drügs until I'm incoherent, loved ones steady disappearing
But for you, know I'm forever thugging, I can feel your spirit
Racing to the finish line, look up and I can hear 'em cheering
For feelings that I lost to gang, the only thing I'm still endearing

[Chorus: Polo G, Choir, R. Kelly]
I wish that I could hold you tight, uh (I wish, I wish, I wish)
I'm gripping on this pole tonight, uh (I wish, I wish, I—)
I'm connected to your soul tonight
Hoping everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish, I—)

[Outro: Polo G, Choir, R. Kelly]
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
And if I make it out the South, I'll see you again some day (I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
Everything's okay (I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish, I—)
(I wish, I wish, I wish)
(I wish, I wish)
