"I turn the TV on and try to forget

Just how much I was hurting deep down inside"


[Hook: Boog Brown]

Yeah, they smiling in ya face

Behind your back all they got for you is hate

Yeah, they smiling in ya face

Behind your back yo they wanna take your place

Just smiling in ya face

Behind your back all they got for you is hate

Just smiling in ya face

Yeah, they smiling in ya face


[Verse 1: Boog Brown]

Funny how the time change strain some relationships

Turn your back for a second and they done flipped the script

Oh yeah they love it when you're down on your luck

Then reappear when they need you then be all in your ear

Like, "Aw Boog you listen so well

Feel like I could tell you anything

Let me drain you empty with this energy."

Like I ain't dealing with shit

Dodging rumors, I know two that came from you

Cause you the only one I talk to

Superficial bitches that be creating the issues

I just ain't got time to listen to

See me in my weakness

Say you'll keep my secrets then betray me without thinking

Then you call me "fam" without understanding the meaning

If I ain't love your mother would've been said "Fuck off."

Giving you the benefit you hit me with the gloves off

I should've known you was a hoe-ass fake

When I first saw the hatred

Shit, caught me with the bait and switch


[Hook 2: Boog Brown]

With friends like these no need for enemies

Always with a trick up they sleeve, just like a fiend

They backstabbers

Whatever is yours is what they after

They see you when you shining, wanna try to dim the light

They all smiles when you around

When you leave they drag your name on the ground

Make me wanna holler, how could I have missed it?

You on that pretend shit

Fuck outta here, this ain't no friendship

This ain't a friendship


[Verse Two: Kam Moye]

You ain't a genuine friend when you keep truth hiding

And it's a shame that when you smiling it's two sided

Like quarters and nickles, supported my niggas

When I was ?gloss? we were poor before your boy could get listens

You distorted the imagines after much years

Now I'm simply

Pouring our liquor for the friendship we once shared

I know your kind though

Lying with no control

Waiting for the moment to stick a knife in my spine slow

Holding a convo with you is like wearing blindfolds

And broadcasting my secrets to every John Doe

You're ruthless, I used to trust you, the truth is

Fuck you, I trust you as far as I can shoot this

I'm even pissed at the people that introduced us

Cause now they co-sign means nothing to me, it's useless

See friends will walk through fire when something bad happens

But it's no respect for them dagnabbit backstabbers
