Lowkey - I Wish lyrics
[Intro] [Renee Soul] (Vocals) [Logic] [Verse 1] Listen Yeah Look I wish there wasn't no system I wish d**h on almost every other politician I wish freedom for all my brothers stuck in prison I wish people weren't led by the television I wish the kids turned against the media Don't believe everything you read on Wikipedia Africa I wish that we were feeding ya and not raping ya wealth I wish that people thought about somebody else before themself listen Then maybe then we'd all live good B If you need it then I got that the way it should be Life's nowhere near where it could be Sometimes I wish that I was Lowkey and they come and took me Cause I feel kinda bad in my heart cause I threw the first bang so it's hard yeah we buss case ITunes number 1 yeah forget papes Forget any of the offers that the labels make [Renee Soul] [Hook] I wish I wish that all my wrongs were right And I wish I wish that I could change my life So my kids Would never have to sacrifice Like I did So I give And they live People have to realize That we live We're living in some crazy times And I wish I wish that we would all unite And I wish I wish I wish I wish [Logic] [Verse 2] I wish for peace in every country I wish for a stress-less life for my mummy I wish that no kid went hungry Cause trust me, if I had enough money I'd fill up every hungry kid's tummy I wish that money gets abolished So anyone can give everything to their kids never can't afford it I wish the whole world was able to live lawless I wish that there wasn't no such thing as being the poorest I wish we didn't know what more is I wish that everyone saw everyone as beautiful and gorgeous I wish for a lot of things I wish that I was young and I still played for Kennington Kings look I don't wish for the fame or the glamour I wish for everyone to understand us See what I really wish for will probably never be I wish Africa and Palestine were free [Renee Soul] [Hook] I wish I wish that all my wrongs were right And I wish I wish that I could change my life So my kids Would never have to sacrifice Like I did So I give And they live People have to realize That we live We're living in some crazy times And I wish I wish that we would all unite And I wish I wish I wish I wish (Vocals) [Lowkey] [Verse 3] I wish I could see freedom for the Irish And I wish you could see deeper than my iris As I write this I wish People would define it in a way that wasn't dictated by dividers and conquerors Tell us conscious is what our genre is You think their dominance is monstrous But a bomb isn't stronger than a continent Tell us we're incompetent That's nonsense we're just onto them My confidence is shocking them Not all open hands and open mouths Dry your tears cause the pioneer's the global south That is why we're here Never will I appear on Oprah's couch Only in the press when the feds put my photo out They wonder why the mad and young are grabbing guns (Why?) But you could speak with your hands if you didn't have a tongue Even that's better than sitting down sad and numb At times I wish I was Gaberlunzie and I was about to have a son Scratch that had a baby girl Live twice and bring life to this crazy world Be on rap congrats for the new arrival I'm stuck in Britain accustomed to living suicidal But not for much longer I realize that our culture is a weapon And nowadays I'm much stronger Simply to exist is what I wish Retirement or not what I have written is timeless
