This song details what J.Cole would do if he were granted 3 wishes. He uses these wishes to better the lives of 3 people in his life for whom he dearly cared for. It’s worthy of note how selfless Cole’s wishes are, wishing the lives of others be bettered rather than wishing for selfish wants like many would.

He wishes that his friends mother didn’t have to “struggle” any more, that his mother wouldn’t be beaten, and that his friend would be freed.

Also, note the exact number of wishes he enumerates:
1.) “she ain’t struggle no more”
2.) “you never saw me”
3.) “bust through the door…grabbed the Glock”

4.) Free him

Cole only gets his three wishes, so, metaphorically, the fourth will never be granted.
