Ed O.G - Wishing feat. Masta Ace lyrics

[Masta Ace] I wish the president would stop lyin' Black babies stop cryin' And young brothers stop dyin' I wish the police would stop k**in' Politicians a stop stealin' and actin like they not dealin' When they know they got bricks in the street At the country club fixin' to eat I can see em' now I wish we'd get this sh** figured out And stop goin' the trigger route And actin' all n******ged out On the block with the nine co*ked I wish we'd try and stop, (what?) stop wishin' for the prime box I wish she wasn't so obsessed with d**h Tell me is it cuz we blessed with less? I don't know really I wish the world was safer, I'm scared to travel abroad That's why, I travel with the Lord I wish the cabs would stop for me in the rain I know you wanna call me insane, I'm a dreamer Martin Luther King Jr. : I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream [Edo. G] I wish my pops didn't die when I was seven years old If there's life after d**h, is heaven this cold? I wish I could wipe the tears of all the cryin' mothers Wish new york n***as didn't start flyin' colors I wish my people stop avoiding the truth BET stop poisoning youth We need changes for teenagers as they go through phases More than just a concrete jungle the world got green acres I wish I'd been more diligent Smart cats rhyme militant the rest rhyme ignorant I wish the world didn't give us funny looks Think we all just dummies and crooks Athletes and entertainers singin' hooks We need more black babies, that's in the books I wish God could take away the pain I know you wanna call me insane, I'm a dreamer [Edo. G] I wish I didn't get searched when I come through customs I wish Christians stop beefin' with m**ms Wish the poor didn't have to take welfare Wish America had universal healthcare Cuz there ain't' no help here, in a country where we don't fight fair The American dream becomes a nightmare It's all hype here, and on this track my soul I might bare I wish Bush just get outta office Before he start world war three and try to off us It won't cost him, but it'll cost us And right now, believe me you lost us
