Phone holding kids
All we do is wish
Never want to work, never want to risk
All we want our gifts
Here comes the choo choo train
Lot of ya'll fed with spoonfuls
My pops said he ain't had much
Straw huts and a tabo
Banana leaves just to wipe up
Skateboards out of plywood
Mother gave her gift on his 35th
Now he 56, now they nervous if I sip out of this wine cup
I partake like it's communion
Oh what it is to be human

I could wish for finer things, finer friends finer fits
Finer skin, finer whips, finer gems, finger gifts
But that ain't got nothing on love
Candle wishes just ain't enough

Mama was it always dark out here?
Where the guards out here
They march out here
Scars out here, torn apart out here
It's war out here, and I'm worn out here
Young buhl just want to play Kirby
But time left early, ever since I got a girly
Neon ain't bright like it used to
TV taught me that tears were color blue
The world losing hue
World losing you
World losing youth
Your word isn't truth

I could wish for finer things, finer friends finer fits
Finer skin, finer whips, finer gems, finger gifts
But that ain't got nothing on love
Candle wishes just ain't enough

Every year I blow more candles but it don't mean nothing at all
I wish, that's all we ever do
In school I glorified the popular guys
In school I glorified the popular guys
But ya'll ain't (Bleep)

I could wish for finer things, finer friends finer fits
Finer skin, finer whips, finer gems, finger gifts
But that ain't got nothing on love
Candle wishes just ain't enough
