[Verse 1: Twista]I wish the way I was livin'
could stopServin' rocks, knowin' the cops
is hot when I'm on the blockAnd I - wish my
brother would've made bailSo I won't have
to travel six hours to see him in jailAnd I - wish
that my grandmother wasn't sickOr that we would
just come up on some stacks and hit a lick (I wish)And I - wish my homies wouldn't have to sufferWhen the streets get the upper hand understand we lose a
brotherAnd I - wish I could go deep in the zoneAnd lift the spirits of the world with words within this
song (I wish)And I - wish I could teach us all to
flyTake away the pain out your hands and help you
hold 'em highAnd I - wish God had never gave
the men powerTo be able to hurt the people inside
the Twin Towers (I wish)And I - wish God
would've turned they hearts righteousWhen they
started to take innocent lives and become snipersBut
uh - we will never break though they devastateWe
shall motivate, and we gotta pray, all we got is faithInstead of thinkin' about who gon' die todayThe Lord is gon' help you feel better so you
ain't gotta cry todaySit at the light so
longAnd then we gotta move straight forward cause we
bite so strongSo when right go wrongJust
say a lil' prayer, get your money man, life goes on...
(Let's go)[Chorus: Faith Evans]Cause I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for todayTake this music and use it, let it take you awayAnd be hopeful, hopeful, and He'll make a wayI know it ain't easy but - that's okayJust be hopeful[Verse 2:
Twista]I wish that you would show some loveInstead of hatin' so much when you see some other people
comin' up (I wish)I wish I could teach the
world to singWrite some music and have them
trippin' off the joy I bringShit - I wish that
we can hold handsListenin' instead of
dissin', lessons from a grown man (I wish)And I
- wish the families that lack but got loveGet some
stacks, brand new shack, and a 'Llac that's on dubsAnd I - wish we could keep achieving wondersSee the vision of the world through the eyes of Stevie Wonder
(I wish)You feel me - and I hope all the kids eatAnd don't nobody in my family see six feet - ya
dig?I hope the mothers stand strongYou
can make it whether you with him or your man's gone (I
wish)And I - wish I could give every celly some
commissaryAnd no popo bring the heat on our peace
like they did R. KellyAnd I - wish that D.O.C. could
scream againAnd bullets could reverse and Pac and
Biggie breathe againShit - and one day they can
speak againI wish that we only saw good news every
time we look at CNNI wish that enemies could talkAnd that Super-homie Christopher Reeve could still walk
(I wish)I wish that we could walk the path stay
doin' the right thingHustle hard so them kids
maintain up in the game (Let's go)[Chorus: Faith Evans]Cause I'm hopeful, yes I
am, hopeful for todayTake this music and use it, let
it take you awayAnd be hopeful, hopeful, and
He'll make a wayI know it ain't easy but -
that's okayJust be hopeful[Verse 3: Twista]Wish the earth wasn't so
apocalipticI try to spread my message to the world
the best way that I can give itWe can make it,
always so optimisticIf you don't listen, gotta
live my life the best way that I can live itI pray
for justice when we go to courtWish it was all good
so the country wouldn't have to go to warWhy
can't we kick it and just 'em onAnd in the
famous words of Mister King, 'why can't we all just
get along?'Hope we can find a better way to
shop in peaceAnd I - hope we find a better way to
cop for keysAnd I - wish everybody would just stop
and freezeAnd ask - why are fulfilling these
downfalls and these propheciesYou can be wrong if
it's you doubtin'With the faith of a
mustard seed, you can move mountainsAnd only the
heavenly father can ease the hurtJust let it go and
keep prayin' on your knees in church (Let's go)[Chorus: Faith Evans]Cause
I'm hopeful, yes I am, hopeful for todayTake
this music and use it, let it take you awayAnd be
hopeful, hopeful, and He'll make a wayI know it
ain't easy but - that's okayJust be
hopeful(Repeat)Na na na na
na na na na naJust be hopeful(Repeat)Na na na na na na na na naNa na
na na na na naNa na na na na na na
