I Wish (dear Proof) Lyrics - D-12

I WISH 

INTRO - OBIE TRICE 

Haha yeah, Obie's here 

Bringing you the latest news 

Everyone knows how we do 

VERSE 1 - OBIE TRICE 

i wish i could bring you back somehow 

and show u we all love u and we're still very proud 

of all the things that you've done 

and all the things that you've seen 

all the times that you've won 

and all the things you taught me 

but then a nigga had to take u away from the team 

but proof you know your still a part of me 

and if it wernt for you, then i still wouldnt be 

cuz all jokes aside, you saved me 

you made me realise the reality of this dream 

and now i know that not a lotta shit 

really exists 

CHORUS ONCE - EMINEM 

3 2 1 bring it back, bring it back 

i wish u could come back, back 

cuz im so sick and tired of all these gatts, gatts 

gangstas fighting over the silliest of things, things 

and then theres you and me 

closest as close can be 

proof, without u things aint the same, same 

and thats from all of us, cuz ur still in this game 

VERSE 2 - EMINEM 

Yo we are all equally the same 

But i cant help feeling mortally insane 

And losing control of all of this pain 

Cuz everybodys in this game 

I believe even god is on this journey too, and the feeling remains 

Imortal and blind to the person thats there 

At that specific occasion thats 99% rare 

I believe we've all been put here for a reason 

I was put here to annoy people every season 

And proof was put here to prove himself to the game 

But now hes long gone and we all feel the same 

Fucking angry and hyped up and ashamed 

Cuz we spose to have each others backs 

Until 4 bullets were fired at his chest 

That was the most upsetting day for me and the rest 

Of the crew, cuz we didnt know what else to do 

Sometimes i sit and wonder how this world works 

People shooting down there own kind, just to get heard 

But fuck it if thats the way, they play 

Then we can play the same game, and win it in a day! 

GO BIZARRE!! 

VERSE 3 - BIZARRE 

My boy proof, taught me a thing or two 

He told me 

'remember man, no man is a failure if they got friends' 

He was my friend, and now hes gone again 

But this time for good, we aint never getting him back 

And that makes me break down and cry 

Cuz we all want him back 

But we gotta carry on, as if nothing happend at all 

Its easier to say that, than actually act 

Putting on a brave face is harder than it seems 

I need to get back on my feet 

But theres still no job openings 

I mean 

How lucky am i 

To have known someone who was so hard to say goodbye, to 

But its like another issue init 

People writing about it, like it dont mean anything 

So fuck all you that dont know shit 

CHORUS ONCE 

VERSE 4 - SWIFT 

Dear proof 

You know man, since you been gone youve made us strong 

Each and every one of us, has gone on 

To do better things with our lives and ourselves 

And its all down to you, so thank you for your help 

I know you still up there probably DJing for god 

Keeping a lookout for the ones that aint so sure 

On what they want to do 

And if they need some more, support 

Of what we used to call, another class roar 

But man our friendship is still too good, to ignore 

I dont understand why they had to take you for 

So lord 

Please take my dear friend and take care 

And proof baby, ill meet you when im dead 

On the heaven stairs, knowing you 

You would trip me up on the steps 

But proof man i know you up there with bugz 

And bugz if you can hear me, i need your support and love 

Right now my daughters calling me 

So imma leave you in peace, for you to breathe 

VERSE 5 - KON ARTIS 

I know everyones lost a special person in there day 

And most of them people have had a chance to say 

There sorrys and goodbyes, so now its my time to find 

The right words for the right place 

And we both know the right place is in my heart 

Cuz im through with the whores and all the gangsta shit 

Cuz ive realised that aint the real me 

I found the real me, and im a new grown man 

Its like ive transformed and forgot forgot about these fans 

But them niggas took it way too far 

By taking your life and breaking peoples hearts 

Cuz my heart has completley shattered into a million pieces 

So im outta this game, before anyone else 

Is put to rest 

CHORUS ONCE 

VERSE 6 - LITTLE BIZZO 

Yo proof, i remember the first time i met you 

It was at Grimshaw Hill, i asked for your autograph 

So you wrote it on the poster that i had 

It was the best day of my life, that day 

And im sorry for whats taken place 

Its like they've taken away my vocab 

Cuz i dont know what to say 

You told me to live life to the full 

Cuz the next thing you know, its outta your control 

And your ready to fall 

Imma live it to the full 

But i wanted you to, too 

You told me 

The first step to getting what you want outta life 

Is to first decide, what you want outta life 

And then never ever stop 

Just go for your goal, until you reach it 

And then everyone will know, how hard your reaching 

Proof man, you taught me a lot in the past few months 

Decending in this world aint a option, you just gotta go up
