[00:02.713](Friends) As you call 'em, they call you when they need something
[00:05.455]Trees for the bluntin', to G's for the frontin'
[00:07.918]I found a way to get peace of mind for years and left the hell alone
[00:11.001]Turn a deaf to the cellular phone
[00:13.011]Send me a letter, or better, we could see each other in real life
[00:15.997]Just so you could feel me like a steel knife
[00:18.282]At least so you could see the white of they eyes
[00:20.373]Bright with surprise once they finish spittin' lies
[00:22.719]Associates is your boys, your girls, bitches, ****, homies
[00:25.931]Close, but really don't know me
[00:27.650]Mom, dad, comrade, peeps, brothers, sisters, duns, dunnies
[00:30.724]Some come around when they need some money
[00:32.779]Others make us laugh like the Sunday funnies
[00:35.272]Fam be around whether you paid or bummy
[00:37.672]You could either ignore this advice or take it from me
[00:40.241]Be too nice and people take you for a dummy
[00:43.086]So nowadays, he ain't so friendly
[00:45.134]Actually, they wouldn't even've made a worthy enemy
[00:47.934]Read the signs, "No feeding the baboons"
[00:50.137]Seein' as how they got your back bleeding from the stab wounds
[00:52.901]Y'all know the dance
[00:53.867]They smile in your face, y'all know the glance
[00:55.826]Try to put them on, they blow the chance
[00:57.735]Never let your so-called mans know your plans
[01:00.086](How many of us have 'em?) A show of hands
[01:02.600](Friends) Is a term some people use loosely
[01:05.126]I'm real choosy on what I choose to let crews see
[01:07.762]You tellin' me, I try to act broke
[01:10.126]Jealousy the number-one killer among Black folk
[01:12.665]Fellas be under some kinda spell like crack smoke
[01:15.165]Ghetto Cinderellas, lead them right to your stack, loc
[01:17.738]Just another way a chick'll lead to your end
[01:19.962]I checked the dictionary for the meaning of "friends"
[01:22.086]It said, "A person one likes to socialize with
[01:25.175]Sympathizer, helper," and that's about the size of it
[01:27.825]Most of the time, these attributes is one-sided
[01:30.025]To bolster the crime, they apt to shoot you through your eyelid
[01:32.327]And they can't hide it, going wild like a white bitch
[01:35.017]Sometimes, you need to cut **** off like a light switch
[01:38.363]And when things get quiet
[01:40.063]Catch 'em like a thief in the night, what a riot
[01:42.329]I first met Mr. Fantastik at a arms deal
[01:45.082]Don't let it get drastic, think of how your moms'll feel
[01:47.840]When it get for real, steel get to sparkin'
[01:50.181]Everything darken, it ain't no talkin'
[01:52.385]For something so cheap, it sure buys a lot of trouble
[01:54.963]You're better off focusin' than tryna plot to bubble
[01:57.341]Or else, it'll be a sad note to end on, the guns we got is
[01:59.958](One's we can depend on)
[02:02.407](Friends)
[02:02.706]Some come in the form of co-dependents
[02:04.936]A lot of times, only end up being codefendants
[02:07.513]Ten bucks say they tell for a lower sentence
[02:09.753]And leave you up under a jail, beggin' for a penance
[02:12.260]It don't make no sense, what happened to the loyalty?
[02:15.051]Honor amongst crooks, trust amongst royalty
[02:17.672]I'd rather go out in a blaze than give them the glory
[02:19.882](How many of us have) A similar story?
[02:22.309](Friends) Before lovers, we need to have some type of overstanding
[02:25.519]Just so when I let her get the man thing, she know it's no strings
[02:28.703]We could do the damn thing, but, ho, it's no rings
[02:31.172]Just how the tramp swings, will she see him again?
[02:33.958]That depends on how good was the skins
[02:35.759]And could she memorize the lessons
[02:37.907]It ain't no need to pretend
[02:39.609]Even though she let 'em stab it, she know they just (Friends)
[02:42.273](Friends)
[02:44.749](How many of us have them?)
