Song 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 sex
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 foetus if you faught for your life?
Would you have been a little genius in love with math?
Would you have played in your school clothes 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...

Chorus:
what I thought was a dream (make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed (happy birthday)
What 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 my father has never disappeared
Pondering frequently while I'm sippin' 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...

Chorus:
What I thought was a dream (make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed (happy birthday)
What I thought was a dream (yeah, make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed

I made a mistake!

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 space
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 space

Happy birthday...

Chorus:
What I thought was a dream (make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed (happy birthday)
What I thought was a dream (make a wish)
Was as real as it seemed

I made a mistake...!

I'm not really a fan of this genre, but this one was nearly perfect. Beautiful piano and lyrics that touches the inner part of your heart.

Oh and the piano is the same from the song Gomenasai from t.A.T.u. This is a colaboration between Flipsyde and t.A.T.u.

Great song.

There are two girls voice they are they singers from t.A.T.u, the one singing "what i thought was a dream" and " was as real as it seemed" is Lena Katina and the one singing "I made a mistake" is yulia volkova.

The first time that I heard this song I started crying. It is very emotional and I can't even imagine how emotional it would be if I listened to as a woman that has had an abortion. Even reading the lyrics now brought tears to my eyes. This is a very good song.

I also wondered who the female singer was and after having searched the Internet I came to the conclusion that it's the two chicks from t.A.t.U.

Once I heard their name it was like a little bell going ding-ding inside my head. If you listen closely to the female voice as she sings, you'll notice there's a slight accent much like the one the t.A.t.U girls have when singing the English versions of their songs.

I also believe that the girl singing "What I thought was a dream" isn't the same as the one singing "I made a mistake".

A very nice song indeed. Nice to hear a rapper sing about sad subjects without using swear words and bragging about bling-bling.

Only one person comes this close.. Eminem. His sad songs are just as good.

Great rhythm, great melody, great instruments, great lyrics and great vocals.

5/5 from me.

Ps. The group is called Flipsyde. Piper is part of the group. Note the part where he sings "Would you have been a little rapper like your papa The Piper?" Obviously, he is Piper and is singing about how he regret going through with an abortion earlier in his life. Not on himself, of course, but on his girlfriend or whatever.

Point being.. the artist should be "Flipsyde feat. t.A.t.U."

Great song. This songs gives you a different view on abortions, somtimes people dont realize how big the consequences of their actions can be.
