Wishful Thinking
Fat Joe feat. Big Pun Kool G Rap and B Real of Cypress Hill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
Once you rule the world every girl will want to be with you
First I get the money then I get the power
B-Real of the hill eliminate the guitars
Thinkin' of takin' a plane
To take a flight out to the red light
And smuggle 10 pounds of weed
Make it home tonight
Be the number 1 smuggler in the area
Got enough weed to fill up and air craft carrier
Erb slanger, Hasila Incorporated
State to state and over seas gettin' faded
Buddah king had seen the green proton
I'm bringing it on right back home to Don
Many different strains of erb in my brain
I'm slippin' through customs in my hydro plane
Skunk and the one chocolate ty bud
Niggas lets get high in the sky hit the blunts
And the bongs, fill up the lungs, niggas don't stop
Fools get sprung when they get there smoked up for crops
Like gettin' props, where all the soldiers in the board
Yo what would you do if the world was yours.
What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
Once you rule the world every girl would want to be with you
First I get the money then I get the power
Joey crack twist the caps enemy's I devour
Yo it's only a dream 16 battin' Beamers and Benz's
Lying penance with diamonds ill as lacin' in a face with avengances
Having blocks on in the lava parts dome
My mankind with crime is how you shine if you can't rhyme
Dime droppers will give ya fad time if you sleep
But momma single be mastera heater on city streets
In the east I be known as Don Cartegena
Claimin' the ? like ?
Lacin' the china with Menida
To seller need repeater or be a leader
Like a preacher or presume a steeper
Peep the shit that I be on, sippin' Don
Until I'm drunk with a million in my trunk like Nikki Vons
Come on I be the top extortionist
Adopt adopted foster kids right out the mothafuckin' orphanage
Yea, I do it for the youth, I'm livin' proof
All my peeps in the streets know I speak the truth.
What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
Once you rule the world every girl would want to be with you
First ya get the money then you get the power
G Rap bustin' the gats slangin' last by every hour
No doubt,
I be the crime story of all ghetto territory's
Soldiers at war be blowin' up niggas like glory
With pharmaceutical lavatory's
Major to chemistry, PHD in streetology
Degree in drug industry
Combinin' HยฒO with matter from crack batter
Rest it through molecules scatter
Launchin' rockets to make the pocket fatter
Mind bitin' an arm starts a crime
G equals and MC dat ain't near the square son I gets mine
But yo the kill the fill with force fields and shields
And holy steel, a nigga keep it real
You know the deal, if the stakes ain't to high for me to grab
I got's to have, stack all the cabbage
From constructin' a drug traffic
Police a jam me in try to find a new pot to frame me in
Armenians so I resort the evil thoughts like Damien
This flame of fury to the D-A and the jury
A hundred grand the judges hammer slams I'm a free man.
What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
Once you rule the world every girl would want to be with you
First ya get the money then you get the power
Big Pun's the same son bustin' my guns for the Dollars
Yo, I'm walkin' waters
Spit fire and shit Hรคagen-Dazs
Idolize no man like Conan and stand beside the guards
Be larger than life, twice as nice as ya idol
Pump you with pride, then guide you str8 to hell like the bible
I'm lible to start manipulatin' minds infiltratin' clown
'm out the pitfalls of life entice with nickle plated nine
It seems every time I'm dream I'm in a nightmare of fiend
Livin' a world of mothers and queens and men would fight fare
(Hell Yea!) I wish I could, I wish I could
Never forget this whole damn world ain't shit I'm just a hood
Yo I change my life make my wife and get the chance for the pain
And physical abuse, give her back her best years
Grab my chest hairs, pound my fist on the hard cement
Spark the scent, and cloud the sky till my heart's content
Repent and vow she be forgiven
How could we be proud to live in a world
Which condemns man, child, to women
Child to women.
Once you rule the world every girl will want to be with you
First I get the money then I get the power
B-Real of the hill eliminate the guitars

[Fat Joe] What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
[Kool G Rap] Once you rule the world every girl will want to be with you
[Big Pun] First I get the money then I get the power
[B-Real] B-Real love to kill, eliminatin' the cops
[Verse 1: B-Real]
Thinkin' of takin' a plane
To take a flight out to the red light
And smuggle ten pounds of weed
Make it home tonight
Be the number one smuggler in the area
Got enough weight to fill up an aircraft carrier
Herb slanger, Hasila Incorporated
State to state and overseas gettin' faded
The Buddha king had seen the green proton
I'm bringing it on right back home to Don
Many different strains of herb in my brain
I'm slippin' through customs in my hydro plane
Skunk and the one Chocolate Thai bud
Niggas, let's get high in the sky, hit the blunts
And the bongs fill up the lungs, niggas don't stop
Fools get sprung when they get to smoke up the crops
I give props for all the soldiers in the war
Yo, what would you do if the world was yours
[Hook]
[Kool G Rap] What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
[Big Pun] Once you rule the world every girl would want to be with you
[B-Real] First I get the money then I get the power
[Fat Joe] Joey crack twistin' caps, enemies I devour
[Verse 2: Fat Joe]
It was only a dream, 16 battin' Beamers and Benz's
Lying pendants with diamonds ill as lacin' in a face with a vengeance
Having blocks on in the livest parts dome
My mankind with crime is how you shine if you can't rhyme
Dime droppers will give your fad time if you sleep
But my mistake will be mastering heat on city streets
And in the east I be known as Don Cartegena
Claimin' the throne like Calderon in this heron arena
Lacin' the china with Menida
This felony repeater will be a leader
Like a preacher but so much deeper
Peep the shit that I be on, sippin' Don
Until I'm drunk with a million in my trunk like Nicky Barnes
Come on, I be the top extortionist
Adopt a dozen foster kids right out the motherfuckin' orphanage
Yea, I do it for the youth, I'm livin' proof
All my peeps on the streets know I speak the truth
[Hook]
[Big Pun] What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
[B-Real] Once you rule the world every girl would want to be with you
[Fat Joe] First you get the money then you get the power
[Kool G Rap] G Rap bustin' the gats and slangin' last by the hour
[Verse 3: Kool G Rap]
No doubt, I be the crime story of all ghetto territories
Soldiers at war be blowin' up niggas like Glory
With pharmaceutical lavatories
Majored in chemistry, PhD in streetology
Degree in drug industry
Combinin' HโO with matter from crack batter
Residue molecules scatter
Launchin' rockets to make the pocket fatter
Mind brighter than Einstein's for crime
G equals the MC that ain't near the square, son I gets mine
But yo the kill will fill with force fields and shields
And holy steel, a nigga keep it real, you know the deal
If the stakes ain't too high for me to grab it
I gots to have it, stack all the cabbage
From conducting a drug traffic
Police'll chain me and tryna find a new plot to frame me in
They rein me in so I resort to evil thoughts like Damien
Display my fury to the DA and the jury
One hundred grand, the judge's hammer slams, I'm a free man
[Hook]
[B-Real] What would you do if you could do the unbelievable
[Fat Joe] Once you rule the world every girl would want to be with you
[Kool G Rap] First you get the money then you get the power
[Big Pun] Big Pun's the same son, bustin' my guns for the dollars
[Verse 4: Big Pun]
Yo, I walk on water, spit fire and shit Hรคagen-Dazs
Idolize no man like Conan and stand beside the gods
Be larger than life, twice as nice as your idol
Pump you with pride, then guide you straight to hell like the Bible
I'm liable to start manipulatin' minds, infiltrate and climb
Out the pitfalls of life, entice with nickle plated nine
It seems every time I dream I'm in a nightmare
I fiend to live in a world where mothers and queens of men would fight fair
[Fat Joe:] Hell Yea!
I wish I could, I wish I could
Never forget this whole damn world ain't shit, not just the hood
Yo, I'd change my life, make my wife forget the tears from the pain and physical abuse
Give her back her best years
Grab my chest hairs, pound my fist on the hard cement
Spark the scent, and cloud the sky to my heart's content
Repent if thou shall be forgiven
How could we be proud to live in a world
Which condemns man, child, and woman?
Child and woman

He had so many but this is Pun's greatest verse ever to me. He poured his soul out, especially the line about his wife

Mic Chael that shit really hit me. I wished he did what he said on that song to his life of treating his wife better. If he only got the help he needed he would still be here ๐. #ripbigpun
Jus

I used to write rhymes to this song and beat. Such raw lyrical energy all the MC's have! Fat Joe was incredibly lucky to have Pun as friend and labelmate. If Pun was still here he'd rap alongside his son still crushing the competition.
Mist
Big Punโs flow on his verse is just insane.
RJ MacReady
You can have any track running in the background while youre doing something else, but you can be goddamn sure that if g rap is on that track you will pay attention the second he gets on the mic. I was zonin out to this banger at work. But when g rap came I was oh shit whats happenin now
