Flipsyde Happy Birthday (DJ DefYam Remix) Lyrics

Happy Birthday... so make a wish

[Verse 1:]
Please accept my apologies,
wonder what would have been
Would you've been a little angel
or an angel of sin?
Tom-boy running around,
hanging with all the guys.
Or a little tough boy
with beautiful brown eyes?
I payed for the murder
before they determined the s__
Choosing our life over your life
meant your death
And you never got a chance
to even open your eyes
Sometimes I wonder as a fetus
if you faught for your life?
Would you have been a little genius
in love with math?
Would you have played in your schoolclothes
and made me mad?
Would you have been a little rapper
like your papa da Piper?
Would you have made me quit smokin'
by finding one of my lighters?
I wonder about your skintone
and shape of your nose?
And the way you would have laughed
and talked fast or slow?
Think about it every year,
so I picked up a pen
Happy birthday, love you
whoever you woulda been
Happy birthday...

[Refrain:]
All I thought was a dream
(make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed
(happy birthday)
All I thought was a dream
(make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed

I made a mistake!

[Verse 2:]
I've got a millon excuses
to why you died
Bet the people got their own
reasons for homicide
Who's to say it woulda worked,
and who's to say it wouldn't have?
I was young and strugglin'
but old enough to be your dad
The fear of being a father
has never disappeared
Pondering frequently
while I'm zippin' on my beer
My vision of a family
was artificial and fake
So when it came time to create
I made a mistake
Now you've got a little brother
maybe he's really you?
Maybe you really forgave us
knowin' we was confused?
Maybe everytime that he smiles
it's you proudly knowin' that your father's
doin' the right thing now?
I never tell a woman
what to do with her body
But if she don't love children
then we can't party
Think about it every year,
so I picked up a pen
Happy birthday, love you
whoever you woulda been
Happy birthday...

[Refrain:]
All I thought was a dream
(make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed
(happy birthday)
All I thought was a dream
(yeah, make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed

I made a mistake!

[Bridge:]
And from the heavens to the womb
to the heavens again
From the endin' to the endin',
never got to begin
Maybe one day
we could meet face to face?
In a place without time and s___e
Happy birthday...

From the heavens to the womb
to the heavens again
From the endin' to the endin',
never got to begin
Maybe one day
we could meet face to face?
In a place without time and s___e
Happy birthday...

[Refrain:]
All I thought was a dream
(make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed
(happy birthday)
All I thought was a dream
(make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed

I made a mistake...!
