I wish u were here, you'd be so proud of your son
I wish u were here to celebrate with me
I wish u 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 getting by 'cause

I miss our talks, one thing you used to say
When things got hard, get down on your knees and pray
And then those walks, it's just the simple things
We still do all of this but only in my dreams, I wish

I wish u were here to see the things I've done
I wish u were here, you'd be so proud of your son
I wish u were here to celebrate with me
I wish u 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 trying stay strong, barely holding on
I know I'll see you again but for right now, rest in peace

And when I get to heaven, first thing they'll say to me
Tell me, have you seen Estelle Marie Talley?
Find out where you are, run into your arms
Wrap your wings around me and whisper in my ear, well done

I wish u were here to see the things I've done
I wish u were here, you'd be so proud of your son
I wish u were here to celebrate with me
I wish u were here
