[Hook (2X)]
|
We just wishin¡¯ on the ghetto stars
|
Money, clothes, hoes and cars
|
Ridin¡¯ dirty in my city streets
|
Blowin¡¯ half a O and go and chase my dreams
|
Yeah, swear a nigga got dreams
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
Wish upon a ghetto star
|
Clutchin¡¯ on my hopes and dreams
|
Some niggas won¡¯t make it
|
Sorry y¡¯all but that¡¯s the way it seems
|
Put this crack on paper
|
He puts his on top of triple beams
|
Different ways to get it but we all just want the same thing
|
Opportunity¡¯s a limit, there¡¯s some niggas slayin¡¯ ¡®cane
|
Makin¡¯ out of this nightmare, swear it¡¯s hard to maintain
|
Underneath Graffiti Bridge searchin¡¯ for a decent vein
|
What¡¯s inside this needle is the only thing that ease my pain
|
Scariest feelin¡¯ is not knowin¡¯ how to make it one more day
|
So we meditate and pray, hope to God I find my way
|
Cause right now I¡¯m not okay
|
So I take it day by day, and hope these worries go astray
|
I¡¯m relyin¡¯ on these words to put my kids to better places
|
Call it crazy all the choices that niggas not educated
|
Barely made it over some obstacles that I¡¯ve seen
|
Try not to loose my life for my sanity, when I chase my dreams
|
|

|
[Verse 2]
|
Wish upon a ghetto star
|
Hope my grandma¡¯s sickness vanish
|
Think about her frequently
|
Anxiety, I sit and panic
|
Hope you know I love you even though I don¡¯t express it much
|
I¡¯m just tryna make it, niggas starvin¡¯ out here desperate
|
Infatuated with not bein¡¯ a loser or a lame
|
Money talks, I did not write the rules to all these games
|
Hoes flock when money comes
|
Bitch is you insane?
|
She just out here tryna get it
|
You can¡¯t fuck away your pain
|
Who am I kiddin¡¯, I can drink away mine neither
|
I didn¡¯t know that you was hurtin¡¯ too
|
I am no mind reader
|
And we let our demons destroy the love that we built for one another
|
Say some hateful shit we don¡¯t mean, ain¡¯t that a muthafucka?
|
You know I love when I do this shit for y¡¯all
|
Apologize for everything, my back¡¯s against the wall
|
Barely made it over some obstacles that I¡¯ve seen
|
And I prayin¡¯ not to lose you every day, when I chase my dreams
|
