[Hook]

But these are the people that we call friends


[Verse 1]

Friends come, friends go

Some move too quick

Some just too slow

A lot of em come thru n it’s just for a season

Some stay a life time n it’s for some kinda reason

Don’t even think you can do it on your own

Can’t get no where with no help

N I don’t care if you grown

Cause it’s known as the people

We don’t help each other succeed

When money involved there’s envy hatred n greed

Niggas camouflage themselves like snakes in the leaves

Waitin to strike any moment to try n kill your dreams

It seem foul but we was cool up until then

[Hook] x 4

Bur theses are the people that we call friends


[Verse 2]

What was I thinkin when I was makin this song?

Oh yeah, can’t believe a niggas first cuz’ll do him wrong

But them the worst ones

Because they related

Thinkin they can get away with some shit n not be hated

I mighta forgave it but I ain’t forgot

And ain’t even no need to try to cross that bridge

You burned to get ya spot

I know some that got issues too can’t

Share your intimiate secrets they use it for a weakness

They’ll keep it on file

And in their brain they push it to the back

Until the perfect moment when they ready to attack

The fact remains its still the same between women n men

Some are genuine n some are just gone in the wind

Smile in ya face n stab ya soon as ya turn round

You just a follower acting wild so you can gain some ground

We used to be down

N cool up until then

[Hook] x 4

But these are the people that we call friends


[Verse 3]

Yo why you still playin games

I thought that we were past that

I guess not yet

Thought that we was tight knit

But you still messing up the mood

I think that you attitude just a complete buzz kill actin like im a fool

You make me wanna kick rocks

N hope one of em hit ya in ya face when I walk out

Somebody know what Im talkin bout

Cause we don’t get along no longer than 10 minutes

Errything be pal z pal z but now the shit finished

You crossed the finished line before the shit got started

But errytime I make a stride you block it

I wonder what the world is your problem

I can solve the riddle for ya

Don’t want nobody to get in front ya or do better or leave ya

Its all in your mind what you seekin find

But you so blind n scared of being left behind

You cancel out your own self n blame it on other folk

Imma for ya though, cuz we were cool up until then

[Hook] x 8
