CHORUS
My friends have told me
It's all around me
The signs of you guys
Being there too
I know it might be
A little Crazy
It's true without it
You wouldn't be you
I miss the times when we were
About 10
We used to run around
Play around
It was happier then
I still know you guys now
But you're not the same
I used to like it when
Our lives were a game
REPEAT CHORUS
I've got some new friends
You'd really like them
I can't help but
Think about when
The games were over
Into a uniform
Still inside me
The thought of you is warm
I really miss you
Wanna hug and kiss you
REPEAT CHORUS
The time is messing up
I feel like dressing up
It makes it harder
To realize it
REPEAT CHORUS (X2)
I really miss you
Wanna hug and kiss you
It's me and you
Guys
I hope the day will be a lighter highway
For friends are found on every road
Can you ever think of any better way
For the lost and weary travelers to go?
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then every thing's all right
It seems to me a crime that we should age
These fragile times should never slip us by
A time you never can or shall erase
As friends together watch their childhood fly
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
If your friends are there then every thing's all right
Making friends for the world to see
Let the people know you got what you need
With a friend at hand you will see the light
You know friends are never earned they are a gift from the loving God
They're precious beyond human evaluation
You dare not take them for granted it or they'll drift away like smoke
And the warmth of there caring will vanish into the chill of the endless night
Most of my friends are unknowns they probably won't even rate an obituary
Unless they live and die in a small town some where
Where nothing much ever happens
But some of my friends are big people
They are famous sensitive and talented
Their names are household words
And yet they are no more precious in God's eyes or in mine
Then those wonderful nobodies who live and die in obscurity
Who is your friend?
He's someone who warns you with a nod
Or with an unspoken word in hard times
When you are hurting beyond words
She's someone who holds you to her breast
And sighs softly into your hair
When no other medicine could possibly stop the pain
A friend is someone who clinks a glass against yours
Or answers the phone at three in the morning
When you're lost and with a few words of encouragement
And concern makes you realize your not really lost at all
Friends come in both sexes in all shapes and sizes
The most important thing they have in common is
Their ability to share with you your most sky splitting joys
Or your' deepest most awesome sorrows
I think of all the things I have in this world
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
Turned each other on to the good things that life has to give
We drift apart for a little bit of a spell
One night I get a call and I know that you're well
And days I was down you would help me get out of my hole
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
Let's be friends
You told me when my girl was untrue
I loaned you money when the funds weren't too cool
I talked your folks out of making you cut off your hair
We've been friends now for so many years
We've been together through the good times and the tears
[2pac] (talking)
I wanna be...
Yo let me fuck that nigga down
You heard that shit nigga
Ay yo what you doin with that big ass
My ghetto love song
Set it off, set it off

[2pac - Verse 1]
Approach you and post a minute (yeah)
All on my double-R tinted *car screech*
As you pass bye winkin
My eye, freshly scented
What's the happs baby? (what's up?)
Come get with me and perhaps lady
You can help me multiply my stacks baby (ha ha ha get money baby)
Currency seem small i need companionship (hey)
Through with that scandalous shit
I bet your man ain't shit (ain't shit)
So why you hesitating?
Actin like your shit don't stink
Check out my diamonds bitch everyone gonna blink (bling bling bling)
This be a thug paid, outlaw nigga with riches
Cream dreamin mother fucker, on a mash for bitches (bitch)
Check my resume, sippin on crystalle and allazay *coughing*
Smokin on big weed, keyed the Cali way (Westside!)
Don't like trickin but I'll buy you a fifth
I can't stand no sneaker-wearing nappy head bitch (word)
Let my letters read, read briefly, they're so cheap
Puttin bitch-made bustas to sleep with no grief
Mash on my so-called cum, who the man?
While tuggin on your made bitch head (westside!)
Understand this, ain't no nigga like me
Fuck Jay-z, he broke and I smoke daily (come on y'all)
Baby let's be friends
(Chorus)
Friends (where my niggaz at? come on y'all)
No need to front, let's be friends (where my niggaz at, all my niggaz)
Because I know you want to fuck (where my bitches at)
Let's be friends
No need to front, let's be friends
Because I know you want to fuck
[2pac - Verse 2]
I met you and I stuttered in passion
Though slightly blinded by that ass
It was hard to keep my dick in my pants
Every time you pass got me checkin for you hardcore
Staring and watchin, me and you one on one (see that)
Picture countless options
Was it prophecy?
Clear as day, visions on top of me (oh my god)
Erotic, psychotic, would possess my body (yes, yes, yes)
Far from a quest I wanna bust your guts
And touch everything inside you from my head to my nuts
You got me sweatin like a fat girl going for mine
Just a skinny nigga fuckin like she stole my mind
Back in time I recall how she used to be
I guess money and fame made you used to me
What's up in 9-6? fine tricks in drag
Fuck Dre, tell that bitch he can kiss my ass
Back to you, my pretty ass caramel queen (come here baby, come here!)
Got my hands on your thighs now let me in-between
That's friends
(Chorus)
Friends (Where my niggaz at? hahah,
Where my bitches at? Throw ya guns in the air)
No need to front, let's be friends
(My ghetto love song, it goes on and on and on and on)
Because I know you want to fuck,
Let's be friends (Where my niggaz at?
Where my bitches at? Where my niggaz at?)
No need to front, let's be friends (Where my niggaz at?)
(Where my bitches at? Where my people at?)
Because i know you want to fuck
Let's be...
[2pac - Verse 3]
Can you imagine me in player mode, rush the tricks
I got em ready for a booty call, I fucked your bitch (Ha Ha!)
Was it me or the fame?
My dick or the game?
Bet I scream 'westside' when I came (westside!)
Scream my name
Cause baby it's the licoius ghetto weak spot, for pretty bitches
Up and down, similar to switches
My movement, baby let your back dip into it, make it fluent
In and out, all around when a nigga do it
You got me high! Let me come inside!
I love it when you get on top, baby let me ride!
Who wanna stop me? Am I top notch?
Fuck player hatin niggaz cause they cock block (cock block)
You probably hate to see a real thug with vision with the game
Rather see a nigga up in prison, why you change?
Made a living out of cuss words, liquor, and weed
A bad seed turned good in this world of G's
Baby got me fantasizing, seeing you naked
It's a fuck song check the record (so check my record)

You know the feelings all so strong
You got to have friends
To make that day last long
I have me some friends but now there gone
Some think came and took them away
And from the dusk until the dawn
Here is where I'm going to stay
Hey well I'll stand right here
At the end of the road
And I'll wait for the new friends to come
Well I don't care if I'm hungry or cold
I got to get me some
Talking about friends
Miles and miles and miles of friends
Lot and lots and lots of friends
You got to have friends
Talking about friends
Hey do you know what I mean?
Everybody's has got to have friends
You got to have friends
And some friends but there gone gone
Something came and took 'em away
And from the dusk till the dawn
Here ,here is where I'll stay
And I'm standing at the end of a long, long road
And I'm waiting for my new friends to come
I don't care if I'm hunger or freezing cold
I got to get me some of them
Talking about friends
You got to have friends
You know you get yours I'll get mine
I got to baby
Talking bout friends
Miles and miles and miles of friends
Lots and lots and lots of friends
You got to have friends
Talking bout friends
Miles and miles and miles and miles of friends
Friend, friends, friends, friends, friends
You got to have friends
Talking bout friends
Life is much mo' precious
Than you'll think
Like a game'll make yo chips sink
It's so hard
Hard to trust a smile and face
When niggas got intentions already taking yo place
Keep my head up and stand tall
If I stumble, then I'll fall
Will you pick me up at all?
Will you pick me up at all?
I'm a keep it gangsta till my end
Cause some people do pretend
And ain't too many of us that we can call friends
That we can call friends
Ohhhhhhh
Now all I gotta do is keep my head up
And walk a straight line when fake friends won't mind
But I'm kind-hearted
And don't like being stepped on
If I wasn't real, I wouldn't be in this position
Like that, dogg, I got a whole lot to say
I'm by myself with my rhymes when we kick it all day
Lil' Jay used to say I'd never be nobody
But you know what I never do?
Smoke it off like Gotti
Five million dollar hits puttin in saxophones
Tray Deee & Snoop, we sound good on this microphone
I never threaten nobody to make it happen
Let me show you how we eat a full meal off this rappin'
But if I had a chance to give it back
I'd give it to the ones who helped me do that
Do that, straight from the heart
Eastside till I die
We ain't no contract friends, we doggs for life
It's a trip how we Crip
Suppose the enemies still
With both sides ride causing plenty of tears
Insane's and 20's both from the same city
A bunch of down niggas and it ain't that many
Me, C, and the G can think back to the start
Homies chillin', getting high, shooting craps in the park
And having a heart
To get 'em up if it was beef
Head up like G's, take it out in the street
Hold ya own was the code that I growed to view
So I fucked with and stuck with a chosen few
But Snoop Dogg, you can call me, whatever the case
And homie that ain't nothing that the set could erase
You put me with the homie, Goldie, though we never had spoke
A Insane with a 20, now we hell of a close
And y'all kids, my kids, so we family now
Cause I could never see you doing bad without
And that's real
Life is much mo' precious
Than you'll think
Like a game'll make yo chips sink
It's so hard
Hard to trust a smile and face
When niggas got intentions already taking yo place
Keep my head up and stand tall
If I stumble, then I'll fall
Will you pick me up at all?
Will you pick me up at all?
I'm a keep it gangsta till my end
Cause some people do pretend
And ain't too many of us that we can call friends
[Sampled Vocal Intro]
[Chorus 1 - Sample]
[Verse 1 - JR. Gong]
These later days in Babylon
As I watch your children grow
And the years them carry on
And I miss you even more
Still I send them go to school
And tell them
What dem fi know
All of mi friend dem mi salute
Daddi gon and Lenny Screw
Another year has come and past
Man a drop like morning dew
Uncle Warrick sick and gone
When him couldn't catch a flew
Picka T you a mi don
Respect long and overdue
When nothing never did a gwan
You still have on somethin' new
Our friendship ever last
All when one minus from few
Yes we surely had a blast
We're like family Me and you
A nuh every path you cross
Lead to somebody whe true
Of the many that are called
Only chosen is a few
[Chorus 2 - JR. Gong]
Of the real friends that serve you long
Your memories might fade
Your real friends will serve you long
Sunshine or rain
Your real friends will serve you long
Acquaintances will fade
Your real friends wont do you wrong
Real friend don't change
[Verse 2 - Nas]
Only talking with winners
A loser or two
Got my number
Still they think they real
But they just really awfully bitter
Salty niggaz Hate the smarter ones
These are the doubters
Who's our 'bout my run
I barely made it out the slums
My value high Cause I do more than
Rap about a gun
I made money for niggaz
Ya'll never looking out for none
I helped millionaires get to that very position
Some real millionaires see that's ill
Cause look at statistics
Real millionaires
And I ain't talking ghetto riches
Thorough business
You mistreating niggaz
Heard your folks bleed in prison
You ain't a G
And if you was
I don't recall
Who would roll with ya'll
Bunch a fucking know it alls
Who's dough is small
Look what's it come to
Our rapport's good no more
We was good before
Till I saw what type a dude you took me for
We had a chance to take paper down
What I took was more
Because of hatred
Opportunity wasted
[Chorus 3 - JR. Gong]
Your real friends will serve you long
Your car and clothes will fade
Your real friend wont do you wrong
Real friend don't change Eh
[Verse 3 - JR. Gong]
Your real friend won't run in war
Nuh care what the cost is
You real friends are in for all the wins and the losses
Fi Real!
No question at all
Them ready fi rise the tallest
Take to the enemies
All for one
And one for all this
Real friend will hear you out
No secret feelings
Real friends won't sell you out
No bargain pleading
For real!
Always looking out
A meal!
When outside a drought
Your real!
Friend won't hide you out
[Chorus 4 - JR. Gong]
Your real friends will serve you long
When all else fails
Your real friend wont do you wrong
Real friend don't change
[Verse 4 - Nas]
May laughter
From backstabbers
Turn to tears faster
I wish for you
No snake shall slither past ya
You have to
Keep your vision clear
Cause only a coward lives in fear
My surroundings
Got only real powerful niggaz here
Real men we have a code of ethics
No question
No jealousies
No feminine tendencies
We expecting
No gossip
No phony logic
No counting your homey pocket
Spare no expense for legal defense
If your homey locked up
No keeping tabs
On who was the last who looked out
Selfishness
That's a character flaw
No holding out
Yo what happened to the honor?
You're dealing with
Sensitive Pre-Madonna drama
Teflon love
For my dudes who solid
[Chorus 5 - JR. Gong]
Your real friends will serve you long
Your memories might fade
Your real friends will serve you long
Sunshine or rain, eh
Your real friends will serve you long, woe ya woe
When all else fails
Your real friends wont do you wrong
Real friend don't change
[Bridge - JR. Gong]
Now plentiful
Or scantily
My cup be full
Or emptily
With arm in arms
We'll all trod on
Through destiny
A friend that's true
Is there for me
Respect is due
They care for me
Should I be down
Or even out
They're next to me
[Chorus Out - JR. Gong]
Your real friends will serve you long
Your memories might fade
Your real friends will serve you long
Sunshine or rain, hey
Your real friends will serve you long, woe ya woe
When all else fails
Real friends won't do you wrong
Real friend don't change
Real friend don't change
Real friend don't change
See the strange boy keeping to the shadows
He's a very good friend of mine
I've seen you running from the ladies
Don't tell me you're not that kind
I've got the time if you've got the money
Mister you'll be pleased you'll see
We'll meet by the tubeway as the screamer cries eleven
And you can have your way with me
You're gonna make me feel so cold
See my one love talking to the pretty boy
I never did like her taste
My skin is rubber on a skeletal body
I'm physically going to waste
Feel my eyes and the tongue of a killer
I'm a humanoid logic machine
Don't touch me with your painted little fingers
'Cos I know where they've been
You're not gonna put those scabs on me
I must hide from a thousand grinning faces
All sucking from my crazy mind
Take a ride out in my imagery of ages
And heaven knows what you will find
I've no time for the chitter-chatter ladies
I'm so busy trying to break this wall
Hear my words 'cos emotion now is leaving
You see I'm really not a human at all
And I don't think I wanna stay
Written by Andy Summers
I likes to eat my friends
And make no bones about it
I likes to eat my friends
I couldn't do without it
Ain't a man or poet, friend
I know just how you'll taste
Your limbs go sliding down my throat
And never go to waste
Your death of course, will sadden me
Until I grok your essence
I know your life was not in vain
When digestion is commencing
Consider this a celebration
And the deepest pact of friends
And I hope that you will dine on me
When I come to an end
Even friends may come to you
With a new found revelation
But think of it as life renewed
And not their termination
"To know you is to eat you,"
Should be the code of lovers
Death brings the highest act of love
Preserved for one another
People say that what you are
Is only what you eat
And my friends become a part of me
Oh it's then that life's complete
To know you is to eat you
The act of love supreme
Each one of us inside himself
Can appetise the dream
In our childhoods days
together we would play
people said we were inseparable
Like a brother then
my protective friend
he would always take good care of me
Friends that's what we are just
friends no more or less oh
here we are sharing so much fun
friends why can't he see that I want him
to be more than my friend
Years have come and gone
still our friendship's strong
now he's more than just the boy next door
I'm in love with him
guess I've always been
he doesn't know he's all I'm living for
Friends that's all we are just
friends so near yet so far from love
and oh the joy that he can bring
friends why can't he see that I want him
to be more than my friend
I'd like to tell him that I need him bad
but I'm afraid if I do I might lose
the only friend that I have
Friends that's all we are just
friends so near yet so far from love and thus
we'll always remain friends
friends why can't he see that I want us
When I first saw you
I never thought I would love you
At all, or at least as I do now
I dont know when it happened or how
When we were best friends, all we did was hang out, laugh, and joke
Never did I stutter, or choke
Until just this year, I dont know why
I became extremely shy
I look at you and look away
For I dont know what to say
Now its the last day of school
Everyone thinks this day is so cool
But not for me
For it is today, that I see
How dumb Im being, acting
While Im hiding, last year wed be talking
The last day, last year,
You said goodbye, and now were here
Will it ever be the same?
Will we ever just sit and talk, it used to be that way
Now Im not sure it can come to be
For I am no longer the old me
I am shy, I am weak
Seemed to have broken my good-girl streak
The thing that keeps me going everyday
Is that you look past all that and see me, the old way
You see me, and I see you, whats the problem, then?
Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
Chorus:
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
With the faith and love God's given
Springing from the faith we know
We will pray the joy you live in
Is the strength that now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
Chorus
Chorus
Ooh... ooh... oh.. ooh...
What is a friend? Could it be that it's just a word? Or something in your life that you heard? Or just another one of those big fat lies? Cause many nights this word has made me cry. So hard my stomach hurts. Deep down inside, oh, oh, oh.
Uh, uh oh. There goes that word again. (There it goes again). How do we let it in? I thought you were my friend? (I swear I thought you were my friend?). I can’t believe my very eyes. (I can't believe it). Right to my face you lied. Cause you’re my so called "friend". (Yeah, yeah...)
How could you call yourself a "friend"? Uh, uh oh there goes that word again. That brings people together and tears them apart. It's always said by those who claim they love you. When all a while they wanna fill your shoes. And never calling you up with no good news. Oh, oh no..
They always when your blue. (Yeah...). They never want the best for you. (Never, never). They always tryin' to fill your shoes. (I don't understand this kind of friend. Ya'll listen oh..)
Uh. uh oh. There goes that word again. How do we let it in? (How do we let it in?). I thought you were my friend?(I thought you were my friend?). I can't believe my very eyes. (I can't believe my very eyes). Right to my face you lied. (Oh right to my face you lied). Cause you’re my so called "friend".
Opportunities knocking and here comes my “friend”. Uh, uh oh. There goes that word again. (They only come around when they need something ya’ll, listen here, listen here). They call you everyday to fill you in. Only want to hang out. So you can spend on them. (I don’t understand, I don’t understand this kinda friend. Ah yeah, yeah, ohh..)
Uh. Uh oh. There goes that word again. (I, I, I don’t understand this kinda friend). How do we let it in? (I can’t believe my very eyes. Right to my face you lied). Right to my face you lied. Cause you’re my so called friend...
(Friends). Uh. Uh oh. (How many of us have them? I don’t really think we need them. If your not a friend, yeah). There goes that word again. How do we let it in? (A friend. I shouldn’t have to buy you or even lie to you. To keep you as, to you keep as my friend yeah). Right to my face you lied. Cause you’re my so called friend...
Uh. Uh oh. (Oh, ohh, oh, oh, ohh, oh, oh, ooh, ohh,). There goes that word again. How do we let it in? I thought you were my friend?
I thought you were. You were my friend...
Just sit yourself down friend
Pull up a chair friend
There aint nobody here friend
But the people you need
Roll yourself a joint friend
Empty your head friend
Make yourself at home friend
This is where you belong
Chorus:
Put your feet up on the fire
If it makes you feel much better
Have a glass of homegrown wine
Dont you think it tastes fine
Tear you away friend
On a planet to space friend
Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you
I can't believe the hope He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
Bridge:
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts (hearts) in big and small ways (hearts)
Will keep the love (strong) that keeps us strong (strong)
Chorus:
And friends are friends forever (forever friends)
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never (forever friends)
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go (to let you go)
In the Father's hand we know (His hand we know)
That a lifetime's not too long (to live)
To live as friends
Friends
With the faith and love God's given (God has given)
Springing from the hope we know (from the hope we know)
We will pray the joy you'll live in (forever friends)
Is the strength that now you show (forever friends)
Repeat Bridge
Repeat Chorus (x2)
No a lifetime's not to long
To live as friends (as friends)
We live as friends
And I am all alone
There is no one here beside me
And my problems have all gone
There is no one to deride me
But you got to have friends
The feeling's oh, so strong
You got to have friends
To make that day last long
I had some friends but they're gone
Somethin' came and took them away
And from the dusk 'til the dawn
Here is where I'll stay
Standing at the end of the road, boys
Waiting for my new friends to come
I don't care if I'm hungry or poor
I'm gonna get me some of them
'Cause you got to have friends
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, friends
That's right you, oh you, yeah you
I said, you gotta have some friends
I'm talkin' about friends, that's right, friends
Friends, friends, friends
I had some friends, oh, but they're all gone, gone
Someone came and snatched them away
And from the dusk until the very dawn, you know
Here is where I gotta stay, here is where I gotta stay
And I'm standing at the end of a real long road
And I'm waiting for my new friends to come
I don't care if I'm hungry or freezin' cold
I'm gonna get me some of them
'Cause you gotta have friends
That's right, friends, friends
I gotta me my, I gotta me my, I gotta me my
Look around and see all of my friends
Oh, friends, that's right, friends, friends
Friends, friends, friends, friends, oh
Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of you,
I can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through.
But we'll keep you close as always,
It won't even seem you've gone
Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong.
Chorus:
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord is the Lord of them.
And a friend will not say "never"
Cause the welcome will not end.
Though it's hard to let you go..
In the Father's hands we know,
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends.
And with the faith and love God's given
Springing from the hope we know,
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show.
But we'll keep you close as always,
It won't even seem you've gone
Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong.
Chorus:
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord is the Lord of them.
And a friend will not say "never"
Cause the welcome will not end.
Though it's hard to let you go..
In the Father's hands we know
As pretty as a song
A song could ever be
Like Christmas on a river
Without a boat or Christmas tree
This afternoon with you was something like a letter
The kind that someone writes but never sends
And when you look at me like that
I know someday it's gonna end
And when you, you can go
Bet you miss your friends
As angry as a breeze
Tugging hard upon the sails
I've been movin' through these streets forever
From Baltimore to Amsterdam
These things inside me they repeat like broken records
Spinnin' pretty somethin' behind my eyes
And when I can't look at you
I can paint your picture perfectly in my mind
And when I hear it all
I'm gonna miss you all the time
Bad wind up in the trees
Scattering blue birds all over the place
Shuffling children in the parks leave
I wish I was the wind that touched your face
This afternoon with you was something like a letter
The kind that someone writes but never sends
And when you're good to me
It makes me blue because someday it's gonna end
And when we pass on
I bet you miss your friends
Bet you miss your friends
Friends, Friends, Friends, Friends, how many of us have them?
(How many of us have them?)
Friends, Friends, Friends, Friends, ones you can depend on?
(Ones you can depend on?)
Friends, Friends, Friends, Friends, how many of us have them?
(How many of us have them?)
Friends, Friends, Friends, Friends,
before we go any further, let's talk about friends.
My mind can't hate 'em, and even all ah tha people gotta support me

I don't needin' no friend, I
Friends, deep with tha sand in tha ships
So win again, and again, and will ah me friend

She won't groan, no oh, it was probably me so we go
We know what we know, and tha day ya brotha zapped me

Murda one, if we fin' ta go murda dem all, dey fall
They wanna see tha Bone fall, y'all

But now thank The Lord, my thugs we got money, we got money, hey

Watch if I miss ya, hit chya

How ya feel about murda, man?
It's still tha same, you fukk wit' us, wang bangarang
It's like suicide nigga do or die
When ya fukkin' wit' mine, we gon' ride in the end
Somebody gon' die tonight, don't be fuckin wit my friends
I can tell, wit' tha devil, I'm doin' is workin', Lurkin', approachin
me like I must suffer, but in order ta prevent event, and your told
to repent. 'Cause I gotta protect my fortune, and that's my friend
till tha end. Rollin' in my Benz, neva thought what was next to occur
Young entrepeneur, who defeat through tha bloody blood, we ready foe
divide and conquer. Playa hation, infiltration, any situation, y'all
muthafukkaz bring, go prepare foe eternal warfare, and I really don't
care, 'cause I'm sayin' my prayer to tha Man Upstairz
Keepin' my niggaz out here so strong, and doin' this pain
and strain to survive. Lookin' out foe each-other everyday
and our people's comin' up readin' The Bible
Willin' ta die, if tha wicked is near me, if y'all eva try
ta come wit' some crooked condition
What it is, just ta book ah thug
Come ah little bit closer nigga
take ah look at this picture of ah vision of ah mission accomplished
Bone Thugs all tha way 'till tha end, and again, and again, and again
and again, don't try ta come between my, my.
Momma told me watch yo' friends
They can be enemiez within
quick to pretend like they fit in
Get in, they put it all to an end
I know ya kinda choosed survival, pinned ya
Nigga done tried ta infiltrate tha clique, we gonna get chya
No Evil! Get's in me, apart from my people
Militant that's how we choose to roll, and we road warriorz
about tha war, tha war, tha war
When you call my name I will be there, I'll be there
Neva got to worry 'bout nobody else
Indeed, and though I know I want mo' time
I need mo' time. Sweat about Armageddon
it's gonna get us, are you ready? What about yo' friends? Friends
'till tha very end, through tha freezin' wicked windz
wicked windz. What about yo' friends?
I've been ready wit' ah bang, I'm here ta bring all tha noize
Don't think you can avoid tha wrath, then get 'em with tha math
not that tha fact that tha skiez be shorted
Thoughted tha coast was clear, but you couldn't see ah hidden Flesh
thought if you'd been in silence
Longer they know that to you, host preapared to crept in yo' crib
Till then and they wanted ta see tha violence
Droppin', gettin' locked and get in stayed in asylum
Livin' life on under tha hill. Release that trail
and one ah my niggaz been in celled, because I stay high
smoke, enhale. And I may break it wit' ah nigga, will he suffer
don't make no mistake, or don't faim his spray
Anticipation ta get you sprayed, but what if he hesitate?
Make my day. They lay, any nigga they would
It be easy ta pick up ah tune. When do we end?
Will they come get this shit done, and over ah partner
must ah been one of my friends
Betta watch yo' back, otha people you think are yo' homiez
open my fist I can pin when ya fallin
It don't matter where you've been
Just focus on where you're going
Most people you think are friends
Ain't there when the tough gets going
Remember to keep your friends
Be wise with those you've chosen
'Cause only your closest friends
Are there when the going gets tough
When I think about it the definition change
Back in the old days it wasn't quite the same
Or maybe it was but on another level
Still pushing dirt with a different type of shovel
Loyalty, trust, unconditional foundation
Builds everlasting bonds and relations
I've got friends I haven't seen in years
I'd die for tonight forget and have a couple beers
On the other hand you never know where you stand
With certain types of friends they'll sell you out for some ends
Or some pussy or some weed or a business transaction
Some use words but I prefer action
I'm a break you off like an old school playa
My x-ray vision helps me see through the layers
Of you fakes, phonies, lies and deception
Ask Matt Hall if you need a life lesson
I've been all around the world and I met a lot of people
These fakes and phonies yo these cats I see through
Dickheads and homies some others glad to meet you
You better give respect to the ones that believed you
And were there by your side when the going got tough
And had your back when you got to fuck someone up
And lent you a buck when you was broke and hungry
And gave you a place to sleep living in their luxury
Big Up to Chucky that's my dog for real though
What up to Judge D since back in junior high school
Johnny Rich' that's my man Mr. Brando
My partner in crime with the gangsta flow
Daddy X, Big Pak, B, Lou, Munch, Kev, Flo
Cause if ya don't know now you know
Fuck the rest
What's up though
P.S. to my shoulder blade Alison Marie
What up baby
Fuck what ya'll think
To make it in this life you got to know who your friends
Your boys, your dogs, the ones with you 'til the end
The ones that never crack it, they never even bend
I mean like when your ass is broke they got the money to lend
The type that when you need a ride they give you the car
You don't worry about them running 'cause they'll always stand hard
Late night, can't drive, man you never too far
Barbeque by the pool chilling in the back yard
Stepping out on a Friday never leave you behind
The first to call you up when they're hitting the kind
None the less don't stress 'cause it'll always be fine
Like everything I got is yours and what you got is mine
Walk in the front door like they own the crib
But hey, what's theirs is yours and what's yours is theirs
I can't explain it no better that's just how it goes
I dreamt of a move
a great move
to another place with much more land
I was driven by car
and woke before I got there
I remember the place and it was beautiful
A friends a friend who knows what being a friend is, talking with a friend.
As friends we were always so close but so far away...
friends in life are special do you want me as your special friend?
Cause you're the friend that I've been searching for.
There was more for me
It would be more open
scary to think that I could be happy
she'd said it was the same road
but up more, alot more
just be patient and we'll get there
A friends a friend who knows what being a friend is, talking with a friend.
As friends we were always so close but so far away...
friends in life are special do you want me as your special friend?
Cause you're the friend that I've been searching for.
I never got there
but the morning brings light
and so, I'll keep on looking.
A friends a friend who knows what being a friend is, talking with a friend.
As friends we were always so close but so far away...
friends in life are special do you want me as your special friend?
I'm Sitting In This Room-Alone
Time Is Passing By
I Think Of Things I've Said-And Done
And Now I Wonder Why
At Times All My Eyes See
Is A World Of Misery
When I'm Overwhelmed With Pain
You Tell Me How Endeared I Am My Friend
Somehow We Know Just What We're Thinking
And Listen When The Other Calls
I'm Here Waiting For You Call
And When We're Feeling Down
We Pick Each Other Up Before We Fall
You're Sitting In Your Room-Alone
Life Is Passing By
You Think Of Things You Said-And
All That You've Done
Now You Wonder Why
And When All Your Eyes See
This World Of Misery
When You're Overwhelmed With Pain
I'll Tell You How You Endeared You
This one right here, goes out to my real nigga Nate
My nigga Grey-D, out that Pud Park
Ride or die nigga, you know I'm saying
It's me and you, till the grave homie uh
[Z-Ro:]
I use to kick it with the people, I thought were friends
There was no envy or jealousy, cause ain't nobody have no ends
But only time would tell, true character traits
Cause the niggaz I figured to be real, turned out fake
I remember we smoked sherms, just to pass the time
Going hard as we did, no wonder some of us lost our mind
Cause you can't think straight, on that good gorilla piss
Especially by yourself, smoking five or six
Formaldehyde takes over the mind, can't you understand
If your partna go to tripping, remember he still your man
Heard my friend, pulled a pistol on my friend in the hood
Sobered up and apologized, 'sposed to been all good
Chilling all together again, walking side by side
Mr. Walker shot Mr. McCarly, bout eight or nine times
I ain't tripping, cause my nigga'z living better yet he's blessed
Half a calf muscle missing, shot everywhere but the neck
And the head but still breathing, what a story to tell
Now I get to see Mr. Walker, in Mr. State Jail
How the hell I'ma kick it with you nigga, you shot my G
With a friend like you, we don't need enemies
Trying to fall out of place, to explain his case
None of my cellies could feel it, that's why they violated your face
Tried to beef for me in the chow line, snuck up on me
Cause I ride for Grey-D, like he's my one and only homie
This is organized crime, when you fuck with me
Better prepare to tip toe, when you touch the streets
Hey, I'm not a killer but don't rush me
Cause I got a couple hundred motherfuckers, that won't let nobody touch me
I'm the Don now, but I remember the past
Ridgemont hardheads ride or die for eachother, quick to blast
Now it's come to this, all I ever wanted was peace
Never thought it be one of my own, trying to see me deceased
On top of that, when you balling you got too many friends
If it ain't no cheese they leave damn, was it me or my ends
Even women be getting in, where they fit
The love affair is so legit, until you come home and she done split with all your shit
That's why I'm so cold, towards people I meet
Because of something that was done to me, by less than a G
But nevertheless, I'll say it again
Z-Ro the Crooked know the key to survival, is fuck friends
[Hook:]
Friends, ain't no mystery why Z-Ro don't have them
Friends, ain't too many of em I can really depend on
Friends, ain't no mystery why Z-Ro don't have them
Friends, they might be the reason for my bloody murder
Friends are never earned
They're a gift from the loving God
And they're precious beyond human evaluation
But you dare not take them for granted
Or they'll drift away like a smoke
And the warmth of their caring will vanish
Like the chill of the endless nights
Most of my friends are unknowns
And they probably won't rate an obituary
Unless they live and die in small towns
Where nothing much ever happens
But a few of my friends are big people
They'd made the world ring with laughter
Down to it's gaseous burning core
They're famous, sensitive, talented
And their names are household words
Yet they're no more precious in God's eyes or in mine
Than those wonderful nobodys who live and die in small towns
Who is your friend?
He's someone who warms you with a nod
Or with the unspoken word in hard times
When you're hurting beyond words
Who is your friend?
She's someone who holds you to her breast
And sighs softly into your hair
When no other medicine can stop the pain
A friend is someone who clinks his glass against yours
Or answers the phone
At three in the morning when you're lost
And with a few words of encouragement and concern
Makes you realize that you aren't really lost at all
Friends come in both sexes and in all shapes and sizes
The most important thing they have in common
Is the ability to share with you, your most sky splitting joys
Or your deepest, most awesome sorrows
Imagine a new world
Unseen and without form
And this our day, a new dawn
Some people are lonely
Some people are so sad
Reach out and give what you have
Chorus:
Friends are always there
In good and bad times
Always taking care, you're in my mind
And I'll try hard to take my share
Call and you know I will be there
From the start right to the end
Time for old friends If ever we're parted
I'll think of you with me
My smile, the one you give me
Imagine this new world
Friends full of sharing
A new world filled with caring
Repeat chorus and second half of chorus
Written by Andy Summers
I likes to eat my friends
And make no bones about it
I likes to eat my friends
I couldn't do without it
Ain't a man or poet, friend
I know just how you'll taste
Your limbs go sliding down my throat
And never go to waste
Your death of course, will sadden me
Until I grok your essence
I know your life was not in vain
When digestion is commencing
Consider this a celebration
And the deepest pact of friends
And I hope that you will dine on me
When I come to an end
Even friends may come to you
With a new found revelation
But think of it as life renewed
And not their termination
"To know you is to eat you,"
Should be the code of lovers
Death brings the highest act of love
Preserved for one another
People say that what you are
Is only what you eat
And my friends become a part of me
Oh it's then that life's complete
To know you is to eat you
The act of love supreme
Each one of us inside himself
Can appetise the dream
Aha, yeah, yeah
In a world of, larger moves, new cars to cruise
Sometimes I make the news, falsely accused
I gotta shake the spot when the stakes is high
A brother needs space like a vacant lot
I'm lookin forward to the future, Mase and The Lox
And my little son Justin, touchin a knot
You knew I was comin for the crowns that's uptown
You knew I was comin to put it down so what now?
It's the Bad Boy, pull up and break the clutch down
in the five-speed, smirkin then pull up at high speed
Can you enterprise and rise like cream do?
And leave em talk about the last time they seen you?
Game is magnet, to everything platinum with my
name attached, can you all do that?
Think one thing when you read my name
That Puff nigga, the game'll never be the same
Chorus: Puff Daddy singing
What do you do when they love you? (Let's) "live your life"
What do you do when the love turns cold? (Let's) "live your life"
Do you love me baby I'll be your friend
Do you love me baby Though I love you like a brother
I would rather be your lover
Verse Two: Foxy Brown
Erybody wanna be Pam Grier now, stare now
Wanna know what I wear now, peep the gear now, uhh
I swear now, I done killed that shit
Dangerous Na Na, niggaz feel my shit, uhh
Roll for delf, niggaz steal my shit sells
Dunn tripped on Gortex to Pelly Pel
You're fuckin with Mel, I have 500 to sell
Convertible shit, leavin bitches real sick
Heard he liked to trick nonstop, floss a lot
Ballers out of town, spots in Adobe cot
It don't stop I Fox, floss plenty rocks
Since eight-nine nigga been pushin, plenty drops
Nigga keyed up, stash for real
Twenty G's please what? Fuck the soft shit
Hundred thirty pounds of raw shit, the flaw shit
The P.C. on some real to Newark shit
Recall, my whole fam jig the fuck up what?
Bet-ta chill, 'fore you slip the fuck up
Get your wig, split the fuck up, nigga lust
Dangerous, when three general niggaz bust
Infa-wear, but I sips Dom Pierre
Floss through the ave all them hoes wanna stare
Oh yeah? I'm up in your life, play you trife
Brook-lyn, bring it on nigga
Chorus
Verse Three: Puff Daddy
Can you feel me baby? I been away a long time
Is it still me baby? The one on your mind
Can we creep when everybody sleepin and find
ourselves 'tween satin sheets intertwined
Can I touch you baby? Is that aight witchu?
Can I love you baby? What we about to do
could make the whole earth move, I tell you my first move
Climb up in it slow, I ain't tryin to hurt you
Can you feel me baby? Should I keep it right there?
Is it still me baby? Take off your night wear
And lay your pretty body in the middle of your bed
As I place myself in the middle of your legs
Do you want me baby? Just let me know
like Aaliyah baby, and I'ma set you slow
Get freaky baby, can you handle that?
Dim the lights burn candles on your back, yeah
So good to watch my friends dreaming their lives away
So good to watch my friends dreaming all through the day
If I could take them with me, well, you know I would
If I could show them all the things that I've seen, I wish I could
So sad to watch my friends growing older
So sad to watch my friends growing colder
If I could give them all some sunshine, you know I would
If I could take them all to Monterrey, I wish I could
So sad to watch my friends as they watch me
So sad to hear them talking about the things that used to be
One day perhaps I will buy myself a big boat
And take all my friends away
Maybe one day I will buy myself an island
And there with my friends you know I'll stay.
So long, old buddies, I'm going away
So long, old buddies, I'm leaving today
But don't forget all the things that we will do
And I know you'll spare a thought for me
It's been so long since I've seen you, my old friend
I remember your eyes how they would shine
Those crazy times when you and I fooled around
I remember the time you fell in love
Didn't know how to say goodbye to your baby
You made me take the goodbye note around
And that little girl, she cried and cried
She asked me if I knew exactly why you'd gone
I told a lie, I said you felt
She'd be much happier with someone else
But then you'd do the same for me
Remember when we stayed out late
We'd cause a fight but we would never stay to the end
I loved you then, I love you still, you know I think I always will
You're a good friend, a good friend to me
Who was it, who was it, who was it, who was it
Came for me when I was stranded in the bad man's land
Who was it, who was it, who was it
Who put up bail for me when I was so desperate to get out
Who believed with me that I was not guilty
Who gave me beer when I was thirsty
And who gave me twenty-five dollars to hold
I loved you then, I love you still
You know I think I always will
I never thought of leading
I've got my own machine
And I've paid my dues all along
All set for breakingWhen I missed those other people'Cause I knew that I was really alone
Fall out
Fall out with all the leaders and guys
Fall out
Fall out with all the leaders and guys
I saw my education
It was my indocrination
Just to be another parking machine
All my sense was breakingWhen I missed those other people'Cause I knew that I was not very clean
Fall out
Fall out with all the leaders and guys
Fall out
Fall out with all the leaders and guys
Fall out
Fall out with all the leaders and guys
Fall out
Fall out with all the leaders and guys
Fall out!
Well I've been up all night
Couldn't get to dream at all
Trying hard not to make a decision
You know it doesn't seem right
When your back's to the wall
To be accused of sensationalism
But the way things are going
Wouldn't be at all surprised
If a song that I liked won the next Eurovision
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change
It's a mixed up world
These are mixed up times
And the recipe of life is mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But I can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless I did a lot of explaining to you
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change
You know I've often wondered
If what you're telling me is true
But I know that I can make it
If I have my friends to see me through
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change
You know I've often wondered
If what you're telling me is true
But I know that I can make it
If I have my friends to see me through
It's a mixed up world
These are mixed up times
And the recipe of life is mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But I can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless I did a lot of explaining to you
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely upon is change
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely upon is change
Some say I am skin-deep Some say I ain't sincere But believe me I'll always tell you
what you want to hear
But I never told you No, I never told you How I fuck my friends
I've got promises to break And friendships left to kill Don't kid yourself A
middlefinger pays the bill
And I never told you…
I fucked 'em all and I fucked 'em raw
Blame it all on my roots
I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know
The last one to show
I was the last one
You thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
And I toasted you
Said honey we may be through
But you'll never hear me complain
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh I've got friends in low places
Well I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's all right
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
Well I'll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you're livin' in
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh I've got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh I've got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh I've got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
Who cheers you up
When you are down
Who brings you cups of coffee
Who picks you up
When you're in town
Whatever makes you happy
And I'm glad you're better now
But I'm sad you're not around
Friends
Will never desert you
Or turn against
Friends
Won't love you and leave you
To mend the fence
ooohhh...
ooohhh...
Who wakes you up
When you're late for work
Who makes the bed so lovely
Who found your sock
Who picked your shirt
Whatever makes you love me
And I'm glad I'm better now
But I'm sad you're not around
Friends
Will never desert you
Or turn against
Friends
Won't love you and leave you
To mend the fence
ooohhh...
ooohhh...
Friends
Will never desert you
Or turn against
Friends
Won't love you and leave you
To mend the fence
Friends
Will never decieve you
and turn against
Friends
Won't love you and leave you
To mend the fence
You feel the way I do
Love has changed its course
Crashed upon the shore
I can see it in your eyes
I can feel the hurt,
Far beyond the word 'good bye
Now that it's over
Now that we're at the end
Can we start over
Back to when we were FRIENDS
Love, more than just a touch
More than just a word
Many times it hurts
I believe in you and I
Think I've found a way,
We can stand the test of time
Now that it's over
Now that we're the end
Can we start over
Back to when we were FRIENDS
Now...
Now...
WE CAN start over
Aha, yeah, yeah
In a world of, larger moves, new cars to cruise
Sometimes I make the news, falsely accused
I gotta shake the spot when the stakes is high
A brother needs space like a vacant lot
I'm lookin forward to the future, Mase and The Lox
And my little son Justin, touchin a knot
You knew I was comin for the crowns that's uptown
You knew I was comin to put it down so what now?
It's the Bad Boy, pull up and break the clutch down
in the five-speed, smirkin then pull up at high speed
Can you enterprise and rise like cream do?
And leave em talk about the last time they seen you?
Game is magnet, to everything platinum with my
name attached, can you all do that?
Think one thing when you read my name
That Puff nigga, the game'll never be the same
What do you do when they love you?
(Let's) "live your life"
What do you do when the love turns cold?
(Let's) "live your life"
Do you love me baby
I'll be your friend
Do you love me baby
Though I love you like a brother
I would rather be your lover
Erybody wanna be Pam Grier now, stare now
Wanna know what I wear now, peep the gear now, uhh

Ballers out of town, spots in Adobe cot
It don't stop I Fox, floss plenty rocks

Twenty G's please what? Fuck the soft shit
Hundred thirty pounds of raw shit, the flaw shit

Climb up in it slow, I ain't tryin to hurt you

Friends!...We'll be Friends!
We'll be friends...We'll be friends!
Friends!...
I've got friends who are there to the end. Sharing past experience, rejecting all the trends. Seeing through the everyday and leading their own lives. Creating tunes and phrases that help us all survive. I've got friends who chose to settle down, mortgages and babies, getting married, saving Pounds. So when I get to tell you these friends are all the same, you start to get the picture - the shock is in the change. Growing older separates experience from 'now.' What once was one big family is caught up in a row. Based on what we used to be, divisions causing stress. Looked upon subjectively, it all seems such a mess. Sat in stupid corners thinking we're all alone. Not counting friends who went the way we never used to go. While they're sat in the same corners feeling more or less the same. How many rules were broken to lead up to this game? How much freedom do we need before we give me of it away? Opinions need to loosen up if we really want some change. If every boundary we create excludes more than it retains, then old friends are excluded, and you have to think again.
Bright light almost blinding, black night still there shining,
I can't stop, keep on climbing, looking for what I knew.
Had a friend, she once told me, "You got love, you ain't lonely,"
Now she's gone and left me only looking for what I knew.
Mmm, I'm telling you now, The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now, It's very easy just...
Met a man on the roadside crying, without a friend, there's no denying,
You're incomplete, they'll be no finding looking for what you knew.
So anytime somebody needs you, don't let them down, although it grieves you,
Some day you'll need someone like they do, looking for what you knew.
Mmm, I'm telling you now, The greatest thing you ever can do now,
(Jerry Holland)
You say you want to be friends
That's a newly sharpened blade
That's a dagger to the heart
Of the promises we made
That's a chapter full of pain
A season full of rain
A dark and stormy night
Spent all alone
Friends
Get scattered by the wind
Tossed upon the waves
Lost for years on end
Friends
Slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you
Now and then
But you wanna be
Just friends
You say you love me very much
And you'll always hold me dear
Those are the sweetest words
I never want to hear
What's a love without desire
A flame without a fire
Can't warm me late at night
When I need you most
Friends
Get scattered by the wind
Tossed upon the waves
Lost for years on end
Friends
Slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you
Now and then
But you wanna be
Just friends
Friends
Slowly drift apart
They give away their hearts
Maybe call you
Now and then
Darling can't you see
This is killing me
We could never be
Just friends
We've had it all before
How could we ask for more
The greatest gift of heaven is a friend
We've walked through hell and back
We never lost our track
We're stronger now than ever before
We will be friends until the end
Til death do us part
We're holding on, 'cause we belong
Together side by side
Like truth is without lie
We'll never say good-bye
Until we meet in heaven again
Within the wildest storm
You'll never walk alone
My thoughts are always with you - we're friends
[(Chorus:)]
We will be friends until the end
Til death do us part
|: We're holding on, 'cause we belong
Together side by side :|
May come the darkest night
I know we'll be alright
My guiding star on high, my light
Til the end - 'cause we're friends
Oh someone go on like them ya born to find if I bought them
Born for prime star
They are my friend, or they are my enemy
So you call them frienemy, understand me
We don't have no time for playin' so you know what
Yeah, scream out
Come lay down Salt and Pepa is a team
Mad Lion representin' VP, you know how we do
You 'bout to say to yourself, what what
Say one, then some
The paper, can't understand, uh
One degree says, she can't understand
Oh some friend come, wait, you been scammed
The thing that everone thought
Bought the Mr. Lover some
Queen, honey bee wannabes
They want to be in front of me
But it ain't no run in me
That's word to my son and me
Now you wanna be family cuz you see the Grammies (Yeah)
Playin' me close, ask me where's my man, how's my man
Sandy be damned be, I keeps the cheese handy
Got the trap for you rats come strapped with the gammy
Jealousy be swellin' me, word
So I had to charge 'em at will
And leave a bill, like Bellamy
What are you tellin' me
Don't let me catch a felony
People trip out, bring out the hell in me
But I stay paid in full, faithful, and always grateful
Stay on guard, praise God, pity the hateful
Said why you gotta be like that, uh
We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only man, finds his car fade away, hey
Why you gotta be like that, uh
Only one-ninety people stepped back, uh
Friends to the end for the ends did ya favors
Damn, why you wanna stick me for my papers
Would have gave you the world now you can't catch a crumb
How you bum-bum-bitty come so dumb-dumb
Remember when you was all busted, broke down, beat up
Even kept you as a friend when you stole to stay steed-up
Wanna be down with my business, we meet up
Schemin' like a demon on the couch with your feet up
Playin' like a summer may stain by far
Got mad I had the juice so you tried to take the jar
I feel for you, yes, I do
No fame, no crew, now what you gon' do, Boo
He say, she say, we say, why say
The fly-ways my way
The try fray, hit the highway
Say one, then some
The paper, can't understand, uh
One degree says, she can't understand
Oh some friend come, wait, you been scammed
The thing that everone thought
Bought the Mr. Lover some
Said why you gotta be like that, uh
We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only man, finds his car fade away, hey
You smile in my face but all the while you wanna take my place
Put it on a paper chase and you can't keep my pace
You're jealous cuz I'm this shit and you ain't
Far as I'm concerned, I don't know you from a can of paint (Hey yo, who you)
No time to worry about who likes me, who didn't invite me
Behind my back callin' me shysty, that don't excite me
Backstabbers keepin' that he said, she said runnin'
Always in my business, I leave when I see you comin' (Yo, I'm out)
See you got the game twisted, I could care less
My house is bought and paid for, your rent's due, you're stressed
Nevertheless, you wanna keep some drama on blast
But I don't worry cuz I'm quick to come and check that ass
They're spine behind your face
But meantime, they wanna take your place
Those back-stabbers, hey, back-stabbers
Check it, everybody sees you as preemy and teeny
You see me in 3-D, and need me like a genie
All your wishes are washed up like lock up
We need to write a book called Shit That Botched Up
One thing that Sandi can't understand
The all the world jet but see a plentiful of hands
So tell me, how can we shake 'em, firmly you break 'em
Get 'em hot, and bake 'em, run to miss 'em, I may say
Chase me cuz I don't chase them, chill, in fact
Like friends we are family with a bill attatched
Pep's that green-eyed monster, make them ill and that
Well if envy ever tempt me, Salt steer me back
Said why you gotta be like that, uh
We make your money, bought you watch and my stacks, uh
I know you wanna play the games we play
Only man, finds his car fade away, hey
Never never, never should you get paper
Think you better, better, get up, get up this place
Some new, shit, on my tounge and lip
Only one time, then, I will be done with it, go
Some will get with it, some will get wrecked with it
Some will host and they claim, that they say, we did
You faced it and if you why, sack and I messed with
His name was ah-uh-huh-uh-huh, forget this shit
Mad Lion is sick
No bed could get up in this re-lyrical
Full of new time threat, hey
I got my rhymes and the national anthem
Got more rhymes than either Oleen or Tonet
Got more rhymes than they made us sweat
Of a nigga, of a crooked waitin' for the damn check, uh
But let's not forget the, back-biters is the name of this set, uh
All the people, and we know you bite mine
Soldier people shall shine
Aha, yeah, yeah
In a world of, larger moves, new cars to cruise
Sometimes I make the news, falsely accused
I gotta shake the spot when the stakes is high
A brother needs space like a vacant lot
I'm lookin forward to the future, Mase and The Lox
And my little son Justin, touchin a knot
You knew I was comin for the crowns that's uptown
You knew I was comin to put it down so what now?

Chorus: Puff Daddy singing
What do you do when they love you? (Let's) "live your life"
What do you do when the love turns cold? (Let's) "live your life"
Do you love me baby I'll be your friend
Do you love me baby Though I love you like a brother
I would rather be your lover

Chorus 2X to fade
How can i tell her?
what can i say?
we've been friends for so long
never knew it could go wrong
when i look at her
words just won't come
when i try to write them
found i couldn't recite them
and the dawn comes running to my room
and the time for telling is coming soon
she's a believer
that's what she said
when i look in her eyes
all i see is goodbye
and the dawn comes running to my room
and the time for telling is coming soon
How can i tell her?
what can i say?
we've been friends for so long
never knew it could go wrong
friends for so long...
(Mike Monroe, Hanoi Rocks)
I know a man
back in Japan
Backyard Babies
is his favorite band
(Joey Ramone, Ramones)
I got a friend
but they won't let him in
His name is Ben
He's gone to hell
- Cause there is nothing
that touches me the way they do
and all the lies, you've been hearin' baby
that touches me they way they do
they're all true
Nothing touches me the way these people do
- Cause there is nothin'
(Danko Jones)
I got a friend
Her name is Grace
When we broke up
it put a smile on my face
(Tyla, Dogs D'Amour)
that I love
And there's a girl
Sadly she resides in
heaven up above
- Cause there is nothing
and all the lies, you've been hearin' baby
that touches me the way they do
- Cause there is nothin'
they're all true
that touches me they way they do
Nothing touches me the way these people do
Look at all these lonely people
But they can not die
They're born to lose
I love my friend
(Nina Persson, Cardigans)
He doesn't know me
My only friend
(Kory Clarke)
But his word is my command
We meet our friends
Down at the bar
Do you know where you goin to?
Do you like the things Warren G has showed you... you
Do you know where you goin to?
Do you like the things Warren G has showed you...you
G and Snoop, homeys from the jump and the get go
devoted and quoted back in 84
growin up in the LBC
platinum city, where the big gamers be
involved in everythang from Pop Warner
to whats poppin on every corner
find a skirt if you wanna
tryin to come up in this world
where everything is drama
Beverly was like my mama
W-A-double R-E-N
tryin to get in where I can fit in
catchin a bus with a homey I can trust
3 homeys from the hood straight kickin up dust
enjoyin my days and everythang is fine
15 years old Snoop d whoop on the grind
tryin to find ways to make it, dice shake it
young, havin fun, like me Snoop and Nate did
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
I remember all the scams we been through, together
nobody does it better on which you do the weather
the days we used to call first year playin get like me
gettin in fo of zines, I loved em
Long Beach was the hometown
and every spot that we rocked, you know we got down
outside at the club just spittin raps
and every busta that ran up was gettin cracked
underground tapes used to be the claim to fame
Long Beach Was A Mutha was a classic mane
tellin tales about how we was strugglin
and surrounded wit tha homeys that was all clubbin
tryin to make it in this music
quick fast, quick cash, and hittin on the quick dash
we in this game to make hits
and make everybody respect the G-Funk click
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
We be havin fun, no one could do the things that we do
We went from young G's
to sellin million overseas
rollin Dees
and makin money by the trees
to killer Bees, evading all enemies
catastrophies, young GFC's
we made it now, livin good wit no hassles
but still a lot of problems dealin wit shady acts doe
its all a part of makin hits doe
see our careers take off like a US missle
break out the crystal
I spitted it, and now its g funked out, transmitted it
so you can call it what you want
we still goin bring the funk
I likes to eat my friends and make no bones about it
I likes to eat my friends, I couldn't do without it
Ain't a man or poet, friend, I know just how you'll taste
Your limbs go sliding down my throat and never go to waste
Your death, of course, will sadden me, until I grok your essence
I know your life was not in vain when digestion is commencing
Consider this a celebration and the deepest pact of friends
And I hope that you will dine on me when I come to an end
Friends...
Even friends may come to you with a new found revelation
But think of it as life renewed and not their termination
"To know you is to eat you" should be the code of lovers
Death brings the highest act of love preserved for one another
Friends...
People say that what you are is only what you eat
And my friends become a part of me, oh well it's then that life's complete
To know you is to eat you, the act of love supreme
Each one of us inside himself can appetize the dream
I wanna be your friend
Can I be your friend?
I wanna be your friend
Can I be your friend?
I could go into your garden
Serve you skin and bone
I could do many manic things
I wouldn't do alone
And as my mother used to say
Get out of the house and learn to play
Join in the circle and meet someone
Get out of the house
I've a home to run
A taste of honey
A touch of warmth
We'll learn to fend and find our favourite haunt
We won't swap gossip
We won't cause hate
We'll take the morning to just contemplate
Where will I be hiding six years from now?
A job in the city?
(Or a child's know-how)
Know how to win favours quite unconsciously
Will this be heroic, or the end of me?
I wanna be your friend
Can I be your friend?
I wanna be your friend
Can I be your friend?
I could talk to all the portraits hanging in the hall
But I wanna be your friend
//B5//
Lets be friends (4x)

(how many of us have them)
We gotta be friends
Well, I've been up all night
Couldn't get to dream at all
Trying hard not to make a decision
You know it doesn't seem right
When your back's to the wall
To be accused of sensationalism
But the way things are going
Wouldn't be at all surprised
If a song that I liked won the next Eurovision
I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change
It's a mixed up world
These are mixed up times
And the recipe of life is mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But I can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless I did a lot of explaining to you
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change
You know I've often wondered
If what you're telling me is true
But I know that I can make it
If I have my friends to see me through
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change
You know I've often wondered
If what you're telling me is true
But I know that I can make it
If I have my friends to see me through
It's a mixed up world
These are mixed up times
And the recipe of life is mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But I can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless I did a lot of explaining to you
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely upon is change
I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again

Don't let it go
Where strangers meet and lovers lie
where loosers win and winners cry
down on senseless boulevard
where they run so fast but they won't get far
when the lights go out and the neon signs
promise everything you want between the lines
there's a reason why and a place to hide
welcome to the other side
I don't believe in any word you say
how could it be forever - when dreams decay
you never know who your friends are
you never know who your friends are
you never know who your friends are
....'til you need 'em
now the night after judgement day
four horsemen ride down lost highway
if rains on senseless boulevard
Saint Valentine sleeps in astolen car
the broken promise finds a friend called wine
words of trust are the first in line
Judge says: "Son, shoulda know your bride"
welcome to the other side
they tell us that our friends aren't important
because there's work to be done
but i'd rather be poor and live with my friends
than be rich and die all alone
the lust for money has turned people numb
their obsessions over power the fright
they don't even know or care what they've done
they'd kill if the price was right
but friends can work out their problems
and make the hard times quickly pass
a life full of pleasure and good times
a feeling of love that will last
a life without worry of power or greed
it's the only life we've got
there's much more to life than increasing it's speed
too precious to every be bought
and so you lost all your friends
because of this game
think you'll buy more later on,
but the friends that you bought
aren't even the same
(I think we owe it to ourselves to be free,
to go out with other people, I still want to be friends)
So long to you so long to me goodbye to everything and
anything that we ever had no place left for me to subside
feels like a black hole inside of me eating what's left a
fragmented heart broken and shattered and torn apart can't
see it getting much worse there is nothing more painful
than hearing you say those words that recur in my dreams we
can still be friends how can I bear being close to you
remembering the things that as lovers we would do feeling
the sting of watching you care for another and call him
your other don't think I can go on with this pain I need
you back I can't go on another day without being with you
When I saw you wave goodbye
It made me smile while it made me cry
I never thought I'd see the day
I never thought you'd walk a million miles away
But I know we all gotta grow so
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes by we're never gonna pretend
'Cause you and me will always be friends
So if you're feeling all alone
Remember good times or remember home
And if you question all that you see
Remember that you always got a friend in me
'Cause I know we all gotta grow
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes by we're never gonna pretend
'Cause you and me will always be friends
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes you'll be fast if I'm slow and we'll find our tempo
'Cause we may never know how the story ends
But you and me will always be
These days everybody wants to find out how the story ends
So we say nothing is a possibility if you don't got your friends
And I know as time goes by we're never gonna pretend
'Cause you and me will always be friends
Yeah, you and me will always be friends
We know each other for so long
That's why I'm writing you this song
Went to the same class once at school
Both looked in daddy's car so cool
You were my best friend, a better one than everyone
Simply best friends, that's what we were
Friends
Then our turning point has come
I was no longer number one
A sweet little girl, she took my place
And so she ended the good days
You were my best friend, a better one than everyone
Simply best friends, that's what we were
Friends
And all I wanna tell you now,
Is keeping close to friends somehow
If there is one who would do everything for you,
Don't put him on your number two
You were my best friend, a better one than everyone
Simply best friends, that's what we were
I've watched you rise up and I've watched you fall down
'Til you've lost everything but what money can own.
And you feel alright now, but for how long?
You feel alright now, how long?
Do me a favour, stay away from my door.
I could use some good company but I don't care for yours.
No more pageants, no more.
No more pageants, no more.
I find your words empty and you know as a rule
To you I have purposefully never been cruel.
But you waste my time, such fools.
You waste my time, such fools.
My love is not here, my love is away.
You've caught me alone but you've nothing to say.
And it's time to leave now and you know the way.
And it's time to leave and you know the way.
Go and live in the country and I'll stay in town.
I have everything but what money can own.
And I'll be just fine now, so long.
I'll be just fine now, so long.
So long.
You thought you could make this up one day, all the pain
you gave me
When you talked behind my back
I used to call you my friend, but that was long ago
Now I know you as my enemy, and that can't be restored
What did you gain when you stabbed me in my back
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone
What did you gain when you broke the trust I gave
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone
You really fooled me, I gave you my innermost thoughts
That way I trusted you, like friends should do
You used it against me, like an enemy would do, leave me
alone
I don't know you anymore, and that can't be restored
What did you gain when you stabbed me in my back
Is that what you call a friend
Then you're better off alone
What did you gain when you broke the trust I gave
Is that what you call a friend
Packing up the dreams God's planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in our lives is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
And friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never 'cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
With the faith and love God's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you will show
We'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
And friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never 'cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends
And friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say never 'cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Friends, how many of us have them
Every since I could remember
I had friends I could depend on
Clothes to lend 'em
But as time went by
My life got a little strange
And the rules of the game seem to change
Trust, honesty and devotion
And money, money, money is the poison potion
There's no way that I can even say
That this game has been good to me
Or even bad to me it had to be
Cause tragically the way this shit
Cracked off for Doggy Dogg was magically
And now I'm gettin' everything I'm supposed to get
But my friendship with niggaz always ends up as bulshit
I listen to my momma though
She always tried to prepare me
Byt how could she do what I
I mean I'm do or die
But my life on the streets
That shit is suicide
So to cope I got a dogg and a locc
And keep my heat close in case these jokes go for broke
I'm mashin' with the click 2-1-3 that is
They my homeboys ever since kids-
Real friends to the end
Hangin' out with my homies and I'm feelin' just fine
I've been ponderin' lately
A lot of different things on my mind
It seems lately my friends list
Done took a slight decline
And if you wanna know the trith man, man
Them wasn't no friends of mine
You jackin' me up, you takin' my cash
All my life L-B-C, for my city I mash
All those OGs and BGs and wannabies and L-O-Cs
The only friends I got is my 2-1-3s
That's my nigga Snoop D Woop and my nigga N-A-T-E
I can't forget about my nigga H to the Deezy
Pressure and strikes
Don't wann take no lives
But these jaws, cracks and hood cracks
Will make you break bizacks
"Whussup homie, can I borrow some cash?"
Last week I agve you 500, so kiss my ass
I got a baby to feed
A familly to see through
And shake busta snitches tweekin' like you
Homies and friends that's what they for
Stayin' tight and money right
[Phone Ringing]
[Teairra:]

[Breakdown:]
(Now a lot...) A lot of people tried to warn me

[Chorus:]

this is a story of so-called friends, just opportunist, take what they can trust and honour are words to them they smile while they stab you in the back me i got my reasons, you really want to know theres not too much to tell you say that its hurt feelings i don't think betrayal's the mark of true friends i won't have to say it again can't look me in the eye your no friend of mine no reason no reason your just an asshole screw me out of everything i've worked hard for you say its just business nothing personal, you know i'll understand i say it's obvious what a fool i was to trust you never do it again. i don't need anybody to tell me what friends are for only for money coud you be such whores tell you what you want to hear take away allthe things you hold dear and they stab you in the back, so that's my story you know how it ends, don't let yourself get duped by a friend. trust and honour are words to them, they smile while they stab you in the back.
Grandmama always used to say, flip, yo tongue fall out
So I ain't trip if we ain't hang out
Then we flipped and wouldn't hang out
Word from mutual friends when you speak it's fuck me comin' out cha mouth
Fuck me? Nigga, fuck you
But damn I was the man whenever bills was overdue(shit)
Got my deal, I ain't even tripped once
I was da new mc hammer take ya niggas to lunch
Help homies, give them money when they caught in the crush
But what's funny were out of money and you ain't called me once
Now my childhood friends turned to childish ass men
Mad cause I ain't broke and fucked up like them
With thirty five kids and a dead end job
Trying to throw up yo trip like the shit my prob (na)
Now they mad they wanna hate on my shine
Who needs enemies when I got friends like mine
[Chorus:]
Had yo back but you didn't have mine
Act like you didn't now me half the time
Can't believe this now I see it that intention is not worth it
Smile in my face then stab me in the back
True homeboys don't get down like that
But you see seasons changes
Love changes
Best friends become strangers
Ain't you happy for me that I made it in rap
You rather see me join the army and get killed in iraq(damn)
You'll be glad if I died
Cause accuse you when I pass by in dat fancy ass ride
With a fine ass chick in the passenger side
You in some dusty ass honda and yo fat bitch ride
I remember my 85 maxima
You niggas filled it up but rarely ever put gas in a'
Early morning saw you niggas was weak
I did all the hard work putting down in the streets
Made all the contacts through yo time in the beach
Youd just come write a verse and kick up yo feet
I got the rumor going around that you made me
And I used you, nigga you crazy
Now before my homies hating saying bishop is wack
But bishop is signed, wheres your contract?
[Chorus:]
Had yo back but you didn't have mine
Act like you didn't now me half the time
Can't believe this now I see it that intention is not worth it
Smile in my face then stab me in the back
True homeboys don't get down like that
But you see seasons changes
Love changes
Best friends become strangers
You know wats funny to me, but it's sad though
This rap shit can turn yo friends into some assholes
And bitch niggas, yea they might be rocking panty hoes
You better check them, they can hide them under normal clothes
And out west a lot of rappers say they so hood
Yeah right more like west hollywood
And it's a small world I know most of these dudes
A few I consider friends but most I consider fools
Fools that think I'm fooling with the liars that tries to
Disguises they decide to use
But I am not amused
Gypsy ass rappers steady dick hopping crews
Wondering around kaniving on however they can use
Carli simmons you think this songs about you
But it's too many to name so just fuck all you
Hit begin with pain I end it with laughter
Now I see why pac made I ain't mad at you
[Chorus:]
Had yo back but you didn't have mine
Act like you didn't now me half the time
Can't believe this now I see it that intention is not worth it
Smile in my face then stab me in the back
True homeboys don't get down like that
But you see seasons changes
Love changes
I got my freaks to the East
I got my freaks to the West
Let's get together...
Let's celebrate...
You know I can't say no to a good time with my friends
Where would I be...
Instru
So no one told you life was gonna be this way
Your job's a joke, you're broke
your love life's D.O.A
2-It's like you're always stuck in second gear
Oh when it hasn't been your day
Your week, your month, or even your year
1-I'll be there for you
When the rain starts to pour
I'll be there for you
Like I've been there before
I'll be there for you
'Cause you're there for me, too
You're still in bed at ten and work began at eight
You've burned your breakfast
So far things are going great
Your mother warned you there'd be days like these
But she didn't tell you when the world
Has brought you down to your knees
(repeat 1)
No one could ever know me
No one could ever see me
Seems you're the only one who knows
What it's like to be me
Someone to face the day with
Make it through all the rest with
Someone I'll always laugh with
Even at my worst I'm best with you
He was quiet, he was shy A stay-at-home sort of guy Someone you'd trust your sister with Had a twinkle in his eye Yet they say he was psychotic They say psychotically disturbed He was mentally unbalanced, a schizophrenic mass murderer with severe personality disorders They used their jargonistic words So he killed and mutilated Served his victim on a tray But Jeffrey Dahmer was my friend, okay? Tuesday nights we'd go out bowling And he'd blow those pins to hell He'd watch what he'd eat And it watched him as well Friends, friends We can all be friends If we just let the little hurt Between us mend I met him at the circus He was hiding in the dark Pulling funny faces Making people laugh They say he was a freak They say genetically deformed Should have sold his body to science The minute he was born But he'd just smile and say, "[slurp] You've all been very kind." Yes, yes, John Merrick, the Elephant Man Was a friend of mine We'd all go out on blind dates Hessian bags over our heads We never slept like normal kids We'd sit straight up in bed Friends, friends We can all be friends If we just let the little hurt Between us mend He was a painter, quite artistic He had that suave panache A tasteful brown shirt And a cute toothbrush moustache Yeah, he loved his German Shepherd Walking by the babbling brook Watching blond haired, blue eyed children Setting fire to books Yet they say he was a monster Rhe leader of the Reich But Adolf Hitler he was my friend, alright? He loved to go out dancing, Really dug the human league And that song by Alice Cooper, "Only Women Bleed" Friends, friends We can all be friends If we just let the little hurt Between us mend Friends - He murdered 17 million of the bourgeoisie But Joseph Stalin was a friend to me! Friends - Some say he shot the president - is that crime? Lee Harvey Oswald was a friend of mine Friends - He pillaged, was the scourge of Eastern Europe But Ghangis Khan was my good rocking buddy! Friends - She's cute, sort of awkward, her closes barely fit her But Myra Henley was my baby-sitter Friends - Charlie Manson never killed Sharon Tate He's "Lucky Chucky" to his mates Friends - David Koresh never died in that fire He's our friend, our buddy, our messiah Friends - Jack the Ripper gave his heart to me Friends - Idiah Min and I played quoits Friends - Margaret Thatcher was a pitcher, not a catcher Friends - Pol Pot was a friend of mine Friends - Noriega was a friend of mine Friends - Ceaucesu was a friend of mine Friends - Pinochet was a friend of mine Friends - Michael Jackson was a friend of mine... Come on, boys, can't we love one another? Even Oedipus had a mother Friends, friends We can all be friends If we just let the little hurt Between us mend Friends, friends We can all be friends If we just let the little hurt Between us mend
Feeling tired, feeling like you're falling behind
This is where life's beauty contester dies
When the palest turn cold and the evening's not high
This is where trouble decides
Your friends, friends you need the most
Talking shit is so easy to do, I guess I'm rubber you're a fool, Telling lies to be a part of the drama, I guess you're not so cool, not so cool are ya? I know who my friends are, At least, I know so far, Your twisted rumors can't change anything, Nothing can come between me and my friends. You're the last one left, The class bell is ringing, We can't hear you because we're too busy singing. I know who my friends are, At least, I know so far.
Who said that money was everything
Well that's a crock, you know what I'm saying
When the well runs dry
Say goodbye to fair weather friends
If I need a hug
And feel like crawling under a rug
If I fell on my face
I know that you'd be there to help me up
Cause it's you, only you that makes me strong
Cause there ain't nobody, no
Gonna make me live my life alone
A friend won't leave me lying in the road
While the others they just pelt me with their sticks and stones
Won't steal my money
Won't rob my home or take my honey
I hope my friend will always be there while I grow old
Lovers they come and go
Like ships to a dock, a bunch of heartbreakers they are
They blind you with their innocence
And tie your heart in knots
If I need some hope
And I feel like I'm at the end of my rope
You make that funny face
You're always there to cheer me up
Cause it's you, only you that will take me along
Cause there ain't nobody, no
I'd rather have to help me sing a song
A friend won't leave me lying in the road
While the others they just pelt me with their sticks and stones
Won't steal my money
Won't rob my home or take my honey
I hope my friend will always be there while I grow old
Won't think it's funny
And stand up for me, while others call me a dummy
A friend will always be there when I grow
A friend will always be there when I grow

Daddy had a secret
In a hiding a place
His son would retrieve it
On his dying day, yeah
Those times were something
They were something
He taught him how to love
He taught him how to fight
He stressed the need to work
For all the things he'd like
And those times were something
They were something
Those times were something
They were something, yeah
And after school one day
The boy went through some things
He found a letter there
And fell down to his knees
He wasn't suppose to be there, yeah
The letter read I'm not your daddy
But I sure would like to be
But there's one thing blood can't take away
And that's that well always be friends
And those times were something
They were something
Those times were something
They were something, yeah
Those times were something
They were something
Those times were something
Something like a buddy, didn't really love me
You made my lifestyle ugly, man, you wasn't my friend
I trusted and believed in you man, I ignored all the people who said:
“Watch out for your friends"
I used to try to watch for the cops but my pops said:
“Brian you should stop, you should watch for your friends”
I wish I would've listened to him, He said:
“Friends, sometimes they'll try and make you sin”
You made me not only sin
You made my temper shorter than Napoleon
Would shoot whenever you told me when
Met you when I was only ten, now it's only been
Two and a half years since I left you
I can't lie, sometimes when I'm alone
I want to pick up the phone like, what up, holmes
Instead, I go in the zone and spit poems in the microphone
Talking to you is something to do,
but I be calling Ricker's home
You insisted on making me sin
You ain't love me, you was making pretend
You wasn't my friend
My auntie, my uncle and them
They used to tell me again and again:
“Watch out for your friends”
My momma couldn't never comprehend
Said, “You won't even do it for me, but you'll do it for your friends”
Wish I would have listened to them
They said: “Friends, sometimes they'll try to make you sin”
You ain't no friend of mine
hey kaleb
look at me
stop now and talk to me
do you like me as much as you say?
and do you think
I'm wastin my time always talking to you?
'cuz it hurts when you flirt with other girls
and now i try hard to keep you
i just want to make you... mine
am i ever gonna be good enogh fo you?
you cant pretend like you dont care
and you need to love me
'cuz we're together now
and i want to last forever
im sorry i cant be

or do have a chance
im sorry i cant be
just friends
i try not to think
about the pain i feel inside
do you know that you're my everything?
and now i try hard to please you
i just wanna make you... glad
am i ever gonna be good enogh for you
dont pretend that you dont care
and you need to love me
'cuz we're together now
and i want to last forever

or do i have a chance

Life is much mo' precious
Than you'll think
Like a game'll make yo chips sink
It's so hard
Hard to trust a smile and face
When niggas got intentions already taking yo place
Keep my head up and stand tall
If I stumble, then I'll fall
Will you pick me up at all?
Will you pick me up at all?
I'm a keep it gangsta till my end
Cause some people do pretend
And ain't too many of us that we can call friends
That we can call friends
Ohhhhhhh
[Goldie Loc]
Now all I gotta do is keep my head up
And walk a straight line when fake friends won't mind
But I'm kind-hearted
And don't like being stepped on
If I wasn't real, I wouldn't be in this position
Like that, dogg, I got a whole lot to say
I'm by myself with my rhymes when we kick it all day
Lil' Jay used to say I'd never be nobody
But you know what I never do?
Smoke it off like Gotti
Five million dollar hits puttin in saxophones
Tray Deee & Snoop, we sound good on this microphone
I never threaten nobody to make it happen
Let me show you how we eat a full meal off this rappin'
But if I had a chance to give it back
I'd give it to the ones who helped me do that
Do that, straight from the heart
Eastside till I die
We ain't no contract friends, we doggs for life
[Tray Deee]
It's a trip how we Crip
Suppose the enemies still
With both sides ride causing plenty of tears
Insane's and 20's both from the same city
A bunch of down niggas and it ain't that many
Me, C, and the G can think back to the start
Homies chillin', getting high, shooting craps in the park
And having a heart
To get 'em up if it was beef
Head up like G's, take it out in the street
Hold ya own was the code that I growed to view
So I fucked with and stuck with a chosen few
But Snoop Dogg, you can call me, whatever the case
And homie that ain't nothing that the set could erase
You put me with the homie, Goldie, though we never had spoke
A Insane with a 20, now we hell of a close
And y'all kids, my kids, so we family now
Cause I could never see you doing bad without
And that's real
[Kokane]
Life is much mo' precious
Than you'll think
Like a game'll make yo chips sink
It's so hard
Hard to trust a smile and face
When niggas got intentions already taking yo place
Keep my head up and stand tall
If I stumble, then I'll fall
Will you pick me up at all?
Will you pick me up at all?
I'm a keep it gangsta till my end
Cause some people do pretend
And ain't too many of us that we can call friends
That we can call friends...
Night, darkness of night
I've got a friend I'm turning to
Stay beside me now
Though night and day might slip away
Always with you, there I will be
Where you might go, I'll be there too
I have in you such a good friend
I have in you such a good friend
Days, numbers of days
Giving us now, love in this day
Life, all of my life
I've got a friend I'm turning to
Always with you, there I will be
Where you might go, I'll be there, too
I have in you such a good friend
why do we bother sometimes
why not give this shit up
we're meant to be friends but we
can't let our guard down for too long
we value our friendship so highly
but too easily forgotten
when we want what we want
we were so tight when we were seventeen
what fucking happend that's what I want to know
I think we've lost touch with
what our friendships really all about
or maybe things have changed
people do that's cool we can work it out
now we are older and stronger
and more our own men
just a little confused cause we don't understand
why we can't hangout forever like the old days
our friendship was real it couldn't
have been just a phase the conflict we feel
in fact is just confussion cause it feels
like you went and changed it
wasn't me it wasn't you it's all and illusion
happens to us all its just not that strange
I thought we were meant to be friends
Oh what a wonderful world this could be
If we all opened up our eyes to see
That love is what we all need right now
Then we all could come together some way somehow
My door is open wide, no matter who you are
You can come get warm inside
Cuz I need you, just as you need me,
And there's a way to show it, oh love is the key
It may take some time, but we can start by being kind,
To our neighbors in each and every land
And hope that in return they would be concerned
About the life of each and every man
Chorus
Oh on my honor, I see every man as my brother,
And together we can find the hope that's buried deep
within
If we put away our differences and let's all be friends
Life can be beautiful when someone gives their love to
For no special reason, and nothin' in return
If we all tried to love like that,
Soon the whole world will learn
It may take some time, but we can start by being kind,
To our neighbors in each and every land
And hope that in return they would be concerned
[Verse 1: jeru]
Friends is a word that I use loosely
Because you never know who these people may be
Some you just miss them, you know from way back
When you used to dig brock and snatch chains and sell crack
Rollin every day, getting high-er than a ball
But when you play them too close they'll be your downfall
Fast going to the picture, many things have changed
Now the same old friends start acting strange
You probably, fox with me
You even pop shots with me
But now you hissing like a snake so friends turn enemy
And it really dont matter what you've been through
Cause your friend will fuck your bitch and put a bullet in you
Sleep in your bed, drive your car, spend your ends
But these are the people that we call friends
[Chorus:]
Friends
How many of us have them
I have none
Thought I had one
Friends
How many of us have them
Thought I had one
But I have none
Friends, friends
[Verse 2: jeru]
I re-member, we started out together
Back then I said yo we be down forever
I always thought I was a brother to you
We were friends, tight, like the Awesome two
But now look whats happened to you
Putting your trust in the shady individuals
And get screwed, still I hope you fine
Sometimes you cross my mind
Constantly reminded by the sword marks on my spine
They say all wounds heal in time but not mine
Nightmares of my friends creeping up from behind
Bloody murder, while the crimes un-solved
A friends a friend until loot is involved
Sell you out, for a house and a job
And spit on your grave in the end, but
These are the people that we call friends
Friends
[Verse 3: Afu Ra]
First things first
Stop the jealousy and envy
I depend on minds, offkey, to fool enemies
Like your homeboy with your wifey
You cant believe it
Seeing is one thing
But hearing its some shit
Every which way she dip
Every thought was unpleasent
I got, carried away, did you free OJ
Cause I want her ???
I heard she did tricks
Like Vanessa suck your dick
On sunset strip
And my man flip
Like see low dice on six
We used to sell crack
And do sticks for bricks
Bustin shots at all, other criminals care
But they scared to do a mother fucking bid
Listen
Now we rock
Got a block thats hot
Like b-boys on the block thats got all watch
Dont get knocked, that my man
He had me here
Could this be my hollow saying your my fam
But damn, you should have used kung-fu
A .22 or some type of voodoo
To snatch out my heart
Where did my friends go
Where did my friends go
Are they in the bar
Or waiting in the car
Or did they just take off for good
An hour ago
Where did my friends go
Where did my friends go
Are they in Duluth
In a ticket booth
Or do they run the fish house
In Key Largo
You were a supermodel
Long and lean
We were particularly low and mean
Low and mean
Some of them died young
And some of them died later
And a couple of them might even get
To bury me
Where did my friends go
Where did my friends go
Floating in the air
Or walking 'round downstairs
Or did they get held up
In the embargo
Where did my friends go
Aha, yeah, yeah
In a world of, larger moves, new cars to cruise
Sometimes I make the news, falsely accused
I gotta shake the spot when the stakes is high
A brother needs space like a vacant lot
I'm lookin forward to the future, Mase and The Lox
And my little son Justin, touchin a knot
You knew I was comin for the crowns that's uptown
You knew I was comin to put it down so what now?
It's the Bad Boy, pull up and break the clutch down
in the five-speed, smirkin then pull up at high speed
Can you enterprise and rise like cream do?
And leave em talk about the last time they seen you?
Game is magnet, to everything platinum with my
name attached, can you all do that?
Think one thing when you read my name
That Puff nigga, the game'll never be the same
Chorus: Puff Daddy singing
What do you do when they love you? (Let's) "live your life"
What do you do when the love turns cold? (Let's) "live your life"
Do you love me baby I'll be your friend
Do you love me baby Though I love you like a brother
I would rather be your lover
Verse Two: Foxy Brown
Erybody wanna be Pam Grier now, stare now
Wanna know what I wear now, peep the gear now, uhh
I swear now, I done killed that shit
Dangerous Na Na, niggaz feel my shit, uhh
Roll for delf, niggaz steal my shit sells
Dunn tripped on Gortex to Pelly Pel
You're fuckin with Mel, I have 500 to sell
Convertible shit, leavin bitches real sick
Heard he liked to trick nonstop, floss a lot
Ballers out of town, spots in Adobe cot
It don't stop I Fox, floss plenty rocks
Since eight-nine nigga been pushin, plenty drops
Nigga keyed up, stash for real
Twenty G's please what? Fuck the soft shit
Hundred thirty pounds of raw shit, the flaw shit
The P.C. on some real to Newark shit
Recall, my whole fam jig the fuck up what?
Bet-ta chill, 'fore you slip the fuck up
Get your wig, split the fuck up, nigga lust
Dangerous, when three general niggaz bust
Infa-wear, but I sips Dom Pierre
Floss through the ave all them hoes wanna stare
Oh yeah? I'm up in your life, play you trife
Brook-lyn, bring it on nigga
Chorus
Verse Three: Puff Daddy
Can you feel me baby? I been away a long time
Is it still me baby? The one on your mind
Can we creep when everybody sleepin and find
ourselves 'tween satin sheets intertwined
Can I touch you baby? Is that aight witchu?
Can I love you baby? What we about to do
could make the whole earth move, I tell you my first move
Climb up in it slow, I ain't tryin to hurt you
Can you feel me baby? Should I keep it right there?
Is it still me baby? Take off your night wear
And lay your pretty body in the middle of your bed
As I place myself in the middle of your legs
Do you want me baby? Just let me know
like Aaliyah baby, and I'ma set you slow
Get freaky baby, can you handle that?
Dim the lights burn candles on your back, yeah
Chorus 2X to fade
Of all life's treasuries
one is most preciously
kept in my heart
and that's the loyalty of friends
and family gathered 'round
and making joyous sounds
familiar voices warm the heart
I find myself alone and feelin' blue
then I know what to do
I phone my friends in melancholy
and then sometimes I'm filled with doubt
something will chase it out
it's having friends, their faith will win it out
the problems that we face
are easier to take when you have friends
to share the ways and how you knew
that they will share the load
and you can always go by day or night
you know that you're with folk, of course
I know that some of you
can't think of any who
you might call friend
but listen and I'll tell you that
you've heard it said before
and of it's truth i'm more
convinced that you have friends just be one
no thing comes even close
to what we treasure most
Beneficial wars
Black company cars
Two thirty years old [?]
Compared to your scars [?]
Foreign Politics
Middle aged kicks
Wave your flags, wave your dicks
Farewell, world ends
Couldn't care less, I'm watching Friends
Farewell, world ends
Couldn't care less, I'm watching Friends
I'm watching Friends
I'm watching Friends
Cuban Cigars,
English speaking are starting machines, Lending Mars
Devour everything, without a feeling
I'm happy with my tender bill
Farewell, world ends
Couldn't care less, I'm watching Friends
Farewell, world ends
Couldn't care less, I'm watching Friends
I'm watching Friends
The world ends
I'm watching Friends
The world ends
There's a red light burning a hole in the fog
There's a wind blowing in from the docks
There's an old man sitting by the fire with his dog
Staring at a grandfather clock
He sees a city in a land far away
Where it's warm and bright all year
And he thinks about the years and the people slipping away
And he knows he won't get there from here
And that's what friends are for
That's what lovers do
That's what friends are for
And I've got you
That's what friends are for
That's what lovers do
That's what friends are for
And I've got you
And people have to take care of each other
It's that simple
There was a time when you and I could laugh
We could let the world go by
There were no choices there was just one path
And no one wondered why
We had a fine sense of conviction
It was easy and it was right
No confusion, or friction
Man that was poetry and it was flight
And that's what friends are for
That's what lovers do
That's what friends are for
If it's a hard, cold beat
You can go dance every night
You won't get it shown
It won't be missing the spice
You won't know that it hit ya
Nothing'll make you win
Even the law won't fight
Yeah!
Looking to make your winning
Even if it makes you look nice
You got a sound that's nice
Watching the days go by
You can't go to the day lord's house
We don't have no doubt
We go to too many cocktails
Pimples in way..
[Tela]
Uhh, haha yeah, shit bangs, bang out the frame
My man Wayne, this shit right heah, this is somethin
I put it straight to ya so everybody can fuck with it
Niggaz, bitches, y'know, everybody
Little kids, everybody can relate to this, yeah
Now you been down with this hoe since the seventh and eighth
High school, night school, shit y'all was runnin mates
Same hustle, clocked your girl in when she was late
Side by side, boxed hoes when they called her fake
And that's your boo, that's your dawg, sister to the end
And when her folks kicked her out, shit you moved her straight in
Y'all used to hang so tight niggaz mistake you for twins
Names just alike, Carol and Carolyn
She would lie to you, steal from you, say she didn't take it
You knew she wasn't right but that's your girl you let her make it
Now who pulled her through when she needed her a portion
But who left yo' ass in the center of the ocean?
She fucked her cousin nigga and she fucked her nigga family
You never ever thought that she would fuck yo' baby daddy
Everybody tried to tell you but yo' ass wouldn't listen
And now this hoe done came up missin
but that's your motherfuckin friend
[Chorus]
Friends (my nigga), how many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (yup), before we go any further
let's be friends .. (my motherfucker)
How many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (y'all), the ones we can depend on
Let's be friends
[Tela]
This ya boy, this ya nigga, motherfuckin close dawg
And it ain't too many niggaz you can pass the ball
He never fumble, stay humble since you stumbled on him
Save you from drownin that summer when you thought you could swim
Used to run choo-choo trains on his homegirl Kim
For you, your man'd put his ass on the limb
Now he was slicker with them hoes and youse a funny-lookin nigga
Could only get that pussy when the money lookin nigga
He always got it first and you was second base
I guess this about the time we can establish the hate
Got his ass on quicker, started movin weight
Shit he showed you too much, that was the first mistake
With friends like you, tell me who needs problems?
Wanna set your man up, not to kill him, just rob him
But somewhere in yo' flag everything went bad
Mag hit him in the head, that's it, he's dead, he left your friend
[Chorus]
Friends (yup), how many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (you my muh'fucker), before we go any further
let's be friends .. (my dawg)
How many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (my nig-ga), the ones we can depend on
Let's be friends
[Tela]
Now you been sleepin with this muh'fucker every night
Pillow talk, shared your thoughts, shit just split your life
As they grew up in age they got stubborn and trife
Everybody else was wrong and they was always right
So quick to point the finger, instigatin the fight
I don't care if it was lovely they find somethin they don't like
Oh so dumb smart don't need no advice
Folks so dumb smart too bright to get the lights
You know the kind, don't hear, don't see it in the mirror
They dress it up with bullshit to make it appear clearer
With he say, she say, that's all they know
What did they do, where did they go, that's all they livin fo'
They wake up one mornin, they done missed the show
Countin up birthdays like where the fuck did time go?
Now look at the situation that you got yourself in
Sit self down and ask self, "Self, is you my motherfuckin friend?"
[Chorus]
Friends (yup), how many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (cause you my muh'fucker), before we go any further
let's be friends .. (my nig-ga)
How many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (my dawg), the ones we can depend on
Let's be friends (muh'fucker), how many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends, before we go any further
let's be friends .. (yup)
How many of us have them?
Fri-enn-ends (you my muh'fucker, my dawg, my nigga, my muh'fucker)
The ones we can depend on, let's be friends..
I'm staring at the front door in my coat
It's kinda rainy, I've a feeling don't want to know
I'm walking down the pavement, here I go
I'm heading for a place, I've been a million times before
And there's a thousand better ways
That I could spend my time
Than conversation with somebody
Where the sun don't shine
There's lots of people I can be around
And not pretend
That I've been everywhere before
And I call 'em my friends, friends
Somebody's got a party where I go
I Wish lost the invitation, there's nobody there I know
Conversation gets too loud
Too many people want to talk, I wish they'd turn it all down
And everybody's got a million
Different points of view
But when you're looking out the window
That they're looking through
Don't you think it's kinda stupid
Trying to jump onto the rat race
Train that's going the same way too
And there's a thousand better ways
That I could spend my time
Than conversation with somebody
Where the sun don't shine
There's lots of people I can be around
And not pretend
That I've been everywhere before
And I call 'em my friends, friends
I look at my reflection on their wall
I feel so empty, I'm surprised
To see my face in there at all
I make up an excuse to call my phone
And less than twenty minutes later
I'm in a taxi heading home
And Richard Burton's on a Benderz
Trying to get back home
He's never been so many miles
From back where he comes from
He must be twenty times the legal limit
Staring at the end
There's not a telephone for miles
I want to talk to my friends
There's a thousand better ways
That I can spend my time
Than conversation with somebody
Where the sun don't shine
There's lots of people I can be around
And not pretend
That I've been everywhere before
Get get your ass up (yeah)
And raise your glass up (yeah)
If you feeling alright (yeah)
Then we going all night (hey)
We worked we struggled
Our dues is paid
We ride through trouble
Go against the grain
These highs these lows, this life we chose
Some here some gone
But we still stand right here strong
My soldiers, my team
Our future our dreams
Don't hate us, we kings
It's our time to shine, na mean (ay)

Bicycles to bucket to the lac
In the club with the bucket in the back

But right now
There's cameras at the back
Between the clubs and the cab
And you've looked better man
The night drowned
And I just couldn't keep up
I heard you're laughing and stopped
Then turned round round
The best thing, yeah that could happen today is
I won't be in the place that I was yesterday
The phone ring, this time it's worse than I thought
She thought my feelings were hurt but I couldn't have
cared less
I got friends and they talking to me on a mobile phone
I got friends and they're waiting for me I am not alone
And how long must I wait til you come back again
We should not be apart one second more
So just wait, on second thoughts its ok why did you
leave anyway
Can't remember today
So come back I got a feeling bout this
Together we'll put a brick through this social
windshield
I got friends and they talking to me on a mobile phone
I got friends and they're waiting for me I am not alone
And how long must I wait til you come back again
We should not be apart one second more
I've got friends
I've got friends
I've got friends of my own
I've got friends
I've got friends
Bright light, almot blinding
Black night, still there shining
Can't stop keep on climbing
Looking for what I knew
Had a friend, he once told me
";You gotta love, you ain't lonely";
Now she's gone and lefft me only
Lookin' for what I knew
Ah ah, ah ah, ooh ooh, ooh ahh, oh
Oooh, I'm telling you now
The greatest thing you ever can do now
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now
It's very easy just'a oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ahhh
Met a man on the roadside crying
Without a friend, there's no denying
You're incomplete, there'll be no finding
Looking for what you knew

So we started havin' long telephone conversations
Tryin' to feel each other out, showin' a lot of patience
Was a hook-up from my man, word bond she was bad
If I met her whole family I would kiss her dad
So in my mind I was thinkin' she really likes me
She got a good head on her shoulder and she's no dummy
Me and her had compatible horoscopes
But she bugged me out, so bad I was on the ropes
Now when I was with her, my shoulders shrugged
Because when I reached out for a kiss and hug
She mushed me in my face and smiled with a grin
And said this question
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I knew she was different, a very special gal
For the time being, I shall respect her wishes
She wasn't a groupie I understand, she said she just had met me
I liked her for that, a woman with morals
She called me every day, so I saw she was loyal
It bugged me out 'cause I don't usually wait
But on a scale of one to ten, she was a twenty-eight
We was goin' out on the reg', movies and dinner
Always stay at my house, way past ten o' clock
I thought she really really liked me
I did the right thing like my name was Spike Lee
She had her own car, so I walked her to the door
Like Busta Rhymes, I said, "Gimme some more"
So I put my lips out to get a kiss and she said just like this
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
I knew somethin' was wrong because my mack is correct
Talkin' for six months and didn't hit it yet
I thought I was slippin' or maybe in a slump
I felt like Eddie Murphy when he was Professor Klump
No, it can't be, she's here every day
So I don't know why she'd wanna treat me this way
I gotta investigate like Magnum P.I.
I just don't understand why, oh, why
So the next time I saw her, she was unhappy
She had a frown on her face and real jumpy
I said, "Yo what's wrong?" I was real concerned
The way she looked her life had took a real turn
She said, "I went to court today," and I said, "What?"
"If I tell you this, you're gonna go nut"
I said, "Tell me, I can take it, I won't pretend"
"I gotta go to jail for life, so"
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?
Why can't we be friends?

Friends
You were my brother
A soul mate a friend
The kinda one you
Supposed to meet 'n keep but then
Some misunderstanding
Ruined a perfect blending
A sour tasting stew
That would never happen to you
I was on the road
Busy obviously
Consuming time and
It didn't help necessarily
You did not return my calls
Surrounded by your walls
Quite a childish thing to do
For a critic like you
We can still talk it over
Get a drink get sober
Friends do that
They just admit 'n forget
We want the world to move on
Already we don't get along
Ain't nothing worse than friends
Who regret they met
Could it be more easy
Pour it down the drain
'cause even "lonely"
At the top of the food chain
Life is still too short
And I don't think we can afford
Friends makin' mistakes
Give history a break
Can you imagine
Endin' up there all together
Oh, it won't matter
They ''ll place the two of us right next to each other
Every dinner breakfast
God knows how long it 'll last
Shiits, jews, you and me
Mute eternally
We can still talk it over
Get a drink get sober
Friends do that
They just admit 'n forget
We want the world to move on
Already we don't get along
Ain't nothing worse than friends
Who regret they met
Someone hurt you before
It's what you're blaming the next one for
Ain't that exactly
Why we people 've been needing therapy
Since the earliest century
We can still talk it over
Get a drink get sober
Friends do that
They just admit 'n forget
We want the world to move on
Already we don't get along
Ain't nothing worse than friends
Who regret they met
And all these conversations we had
By the value system bein' dead
Ain't that what you said
... That is what you said:
"Forgive and forget as easy as that...
innocent and entire nations dragged into war 'n how did we come this far?"...
... Cut the crap, you can't even make it up to friend...
Ok, I'm sorry I called you dreadful, I still think you do need a girl though, get a wif, get a drink...
You called me a capitalist, moralizing in my farm...
Let's get lots of drinks, mojito's...
In love with the entire bar, lousy in the morning, still better than embarrassed towards this angel:
"Were these the best friends?"...
Before I could never understand, a father and a son on unspeaking terms...
So sad.
Forgive 'n forget,
as easy as that,
I think alcohol could save the world, it's dangerous...
What? ...
Not to drink...
FRIENDS
Where would I be without friends, to take good care of me,
My friends,
What would I do I would be alone
On my own
Enemies, some say add spice to your life
But I've always hated to be so disliked
I cant see why in this short span of time
Anyone does without friends
FRIENDS
Will always help when you're feeling down,
On the ground,
You're friends
Will put a shoulder to the wheel
I feel
Enemies, some say add spice to your life
But I've always hated to be so disliked
I cant see why in this short span of time
Anyone does without friends
FRIENDS
This is a song to thank you all
For being my good friends,
You only number just a few,
Bright light almost blinding,
Black night still there shining,
I can't stop, keep on climbing,
Looking for what I knew.
Had a friend, she once told me,
"You got love, you ain't lonely,"
Now she's gone and left me only
Looking for what I knew.
Mmm, I'm telling you now,
The greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
It's very easy just.
Met a man on the roadside crying,
Without a friend, there's no denying,
You're incomplete, they'll be no finding
Looking for what you knew.
So anytime somebody needs you,
Don't let them down, altho' it grieves you,
Some day you'll need someone like they do,
Looking for what you knew.
Mmm, I'm telling you now,
the greatest thing you ever can do now,
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now,
See the strange boy
Keeping to the shadows
He's a very good friend of mine
I've seen you running from the ladies
Don't tell me you're not the kind
I've got the time if you've got the money
Mister you'll be pleased you'll see
We'll meet by the tubeway
When the screamer cries eleven
And you can have your way with me
You're gonna make me feel so cold
See my one love talking to the pretty boy
I never did like her taste
My skin is rubber on a skeletal body
I'm physically going to waste
Feel my eyes and the tongue of a killer
I'm a humanoid logic machine
Don't touch me with
Your painted little fingers
'Cause I know where they've been
You're not gonna put those scabs on me
I must hide from
A thousand grinning faces
All sucking from my crazy mind
Take a ride out in my imagery of ages
And heaven know what you will find
I've no time for the chitter chatter ladies
I'm so busy trying to break this wall
Hear my words 'cause emotion now is leaving
You see I'm really not a human at all
I gotta find, I gotta find a special friend
A little bit of sexiness
That's all I need
Someone I can kick it with (oh)
Won't put no pressure on me
And when the rain comes fallin' down
Will you be there for me
I need a whole lot of loyalty
I need you down on my team
You see
I been through too much drama in my life
You see
Every chick so far's been wasted time
You see
I need someone so special in my life
I need that special friend
Gonna search around the... world
'Til I find that... girl
New York, Georgia, Cali 'cross the water
Gonna find my baby... girl
Precious like a... pearl
I need a very special friend
(Very very very very special friend)
