What if the only thing that happened in there was a fight? What if y'all talked, dapped it up and then finished your game? Showed each other pictures of y'all babies while sharing their names What if I was there to tell you, "Big bro, it's time to leave" Or better yet, calmed everybody down and bought a round of drinks What if I could show you the future so you could truly see The outcome and the pain in our hearts that will forever be? What if you saw that mausoleum and them tears shedding Not present, just an empty chair at your kid's wedding Seeing life roll by through the years, people switch up Watching your so-called friends and enemies go and clique up Seeing everything that you built up turn to ashes Witnessing egos, pride and lies destroy the fabric of trust If I can go back and show you this madness Better yet, what if you lived and none of this shit never happened? (Hook) If I could take it all back, I would, I would If I could heal all your wounds, I would, I would 'Cause life just don't feel the same without you If I could, if I could, I would (Swifty) What if your grandmother didn't live around the corner? What if me and my other brothers didn't pull up on ya? What if we didn't battle each other, creating a bond And with strangers where I couldn't see you getting older? What if we picked up Bugz and told him "Let's go to an open mic" and he wouldn't have gotten his life stolen? What if these cobras wasn't plotting with motors? They don't want us to prosper, they wanna stop us from growing Now what if Proof, I was with you that night and that morning And right after performing, I would've stopped you from going To that after hours 'cause normally cowards be tryna follow What if I hollered and told you, "Let's try to come back tomorrow" But God's holding a crystal ball and watching us drowning Our teardrops full of sorrow with time that's really borrowed I'm crying, my mind just won't allow me to stop wondering What if I was standing right beside Deshaun? (Hook) If I could take it all back, I would, I would If I could heal all your wounds, I would, I would 'Cause life just don't feel the same without you If I could, if I could, I would I wish that I could hear your voice I'd say, "Go home, you have a choice" Your voice can never be replaced 'Cause life just don't feel the same without you If I could, if I could, I would What if? Oh, oh What if? Oh, oh What if? Oh, oh What if? (What if?) I wish I could see your face, your face I wish that I could hear your voice I'd say, "Go home, you have a choice" Your voice can never be replaced I wish I could see your face If I could take it all back, I would, I would If I could heal all your wounds, I would, I would
