Marlon Craft, Ricky Motion - Wishes lyrics

Sometimes I wish I could sing yea yea
I just wish I could sing
Sometimes I wish I could sing yea yea
I wish that I could sing

Sometimes I wish that I could sing
I wish that it was easy
Wish that I ain't have to think
Wish that I could just be me
No genie in this bottle
I pray it can relieve me
Words only go so far and I
Just want them to believe me
I just want to be seen i just wanna be heard
Before I hang it up
I just want them to hang on each word
Want them to feel like I
Felt when Black Thought
Took the time to have a drink with me
Hear the shit I wrote and feel like
They touched the ink with me, yeah
And I articulate well
But yo I feel way deeper
So my appearance is strong
But I feel way weaker
Sometimes it's hard to move on
Though I feel way eager
A stranger in my own village
I just feel way bleaker
It's like the times are for talking
Like a real late speaker
Wish I could text you emotions
But all I'm left with's emojis
When these words insufficient
It's why I wish I could sing
Sometimes I wish I was different

I just wish I could sing (sing motherfucker)
I just wish I could sing (sing motherfucker)
I just wish I could sing (sing motherfucker)
Though I can't, this is just the way I am
And adjustment isn't planned
I'm an over-thinking
Over-drinking struggle of a man
And I'm proud of who I am
I don' came a long way when I've a long day
I just wish that I could

I just wish I fit the mold enough
Button-ups and nice blue bow ties
"Your swagger isn't cold enough"
Box dreaded tattoo rappers make
The shows erupt
I keep around a brush for solely
Dustin' off my shoulder cuff
Yet, when it all gets settled
I'm staring down my reflection
"This nigga's testing my mental"
Who are y'all to be judging?
Fuck your gown and your mallet
Walk a mile in these shows
See how you handle the callus
See how I handle the civic
Off a fifth of this liquor
Wash it down with some water although
The blood is still thicker
That's why the family's close
Make a wish upon comets
That Heather Halley's a hoe
That's why I'm often despondent
Renounce the shit that I know
I'm just never in the mood for it
Fuck this beat machine
I'd rather make a noose instead
Of a new recording hesitations and doubts
Molehills to a mountain
Climb my way to the peak
Flip a coin in this fountain and I'll sing

I just wish I could sing (sing motherfucker)
I just wish I could sing (sing motherfucker)
I just wish I could sing (sing motherfucker)
Though I can't, this is just the way I am
And adjustment isn't planned
I'm an over-thinking
Over-drinking struggle of a man
And I'm proud of who I am
I don' came a long way when I've a long day
I just wish that I could
