I wish I could Bring back the loved ones we lost I wish I could Bring back my family My people, my brother I wish I could Two words I'm sick and tired hearing now a days is my condolences Brothers getting fatally slain he's laying motionless Baby's getting sprayed, from the cradle to the grave Just read the Willie Lynch letter bout the making of a slave We're all indoctrinated one way or another, it's self murder Death by design it's hard to get further I wish we all were living prosperous Devils be watching us Streets swallow the fatherless in this Toronto apocalypse We lost a whole generation over politics Watching stars die out like astrologists Make a change right now we ain't gotta wish These youngins need help ain't it obvious Using guns for fun or guns for funds Your sons become A slave to the drum hear them roar Pa Rum Pum Pum Your futures bright, can't hold my tongue It's way more than the streets u gotta overcome I wish I could Bring back the loved ones we lost
I wish I could Bring back my family My people, my brothers I wish I could Wishin I could polly with the fallen soldiers Go and get the man responsible and call it closure Marijuana smoker, missin all my locsters Steady throwin up the gang cuz it brought us closer Lot of kids dying for the wrong reasons Winter or Summer, they killing in the wrong season Trying to focus but they holdin me back I lowered the strap, cus rap got me known on the map There used to be codes on these roads, now nothings the same We need change in a city full of struggle and pain Teens are getting stuck in the flames Mothers are praying, while their tears create puddles like rain God bless Toronto, especially the projects Every block, community, every complex My whole cities a hot mess We gotta fix this or when we die our kids will get shot next I wish I could Bring back the loved ones we lost
