Get This Money

By the time you get this letter

I might be doin' better

It's kinda hard tryin' to survive

In all this crazy weather

Everybody wants my number

Everybody's callin' my name

But in the midst of all of this

I can still hear you say

Son, walk upright

And straighten your tie

You don't want one of those good jobs to pass you by, no

Don't act no fool

I'm watching you

And now that you're gone, it still feels like you do

I wish (I wish)

I wish you were here

To see the things I've done

I wish you were here

You'd be so proud of your son

I wish you were here

To celebrate with me

I wish you were here

Now all of these people ask me

"Is it lonely at the top?"

Or do I find comfort

In all the things I got

Well these cars keep me movin'

These planes keep me high

A million dollar home

But I'm barely gettin' by

'Cause I miss our talks (whoa)

One thing you used to say (used to say)

When things got hard (hard on me)

Get down on your knees and pray

And then those walks (then those walks)

It's just the simple things

We still do all of this

But only in my dreams

I wish, oh

(I wish you were here) wish you were here with me

To see the things I've done

I wish (you were here)

You would be so proud of your son

(I wish you were here)

And that's all I know to say

That's all I know to pray (to celebrate with me)

Is that I wish you were here

But sometimes I wonder why

Why can't you still be here with me?

Wish God would've waited a couple more years for you to see

I'm tryna stay strong

Barely holdin' on

I know I'll see you again, but for right now, rest in peace
