Db
(Before we go any further
Friends) As you call 'em, they call you
Bbsus4
when they need something
Trees for the bluntin',
Bb
to G's for the frontin'
Gbmaj7
I found a way to get peace of mind
Bbsus4
for years and left the hell alone
Bb
Turn a deaf ear to the cellular phone
Db
Send me a letter or better,
Bbsus4
we could see each other in real life
Bb
Just so you could feel me like a steel knife
Gbmaj7
At least so you could see
the white of their eyes
Bbsus4
Bright with surprise,
Bb
once they finish spitting lies
Db
Associates is your boys,
Bbsus4
your girls, bitches, niggas, homies
Bb
Close, or really don't know me
Gbmaj7
Mom, dad, comrade, peeps,
Bbsus4
brothers, sisters, duns, dunnies
Some come around
Bb
when they need some money
Db
Others make us laugh like the Sunday funnies
Bbsus4
Fam be around
Bb
whether you paid or bummy
Gbmaj7
You could either ignore this advice
or take it from me:
Bbsus4
Be too nice and people
Bb
take you for a dummy
Db
So nowadays, he ain't so friendly
Bbsus4
Actually they wouldn’t even
Bb
made a worthy enemy
Gbmaj7
Read the signs: "No feeding the baboons
Bbsus4
Seein' as how they got your back
Bb
bleeding from the stab wounds
Db
Y'all know the dance,
they smile in your face,
Bbsus4
y'all know the glance
Bb
Try to put 'em on, they blow the chance
Gbmaj7
Never let your so-called mans
know your plans
(How many of us have them?)
A show of hands
Db
(Friends) is a term some people use loosely
Bbsus4
I'm real choosy on what I
Bb
choose to let crews see
Gbmaj7
You telling me I try to act broke
Bbsus4
Bb
Jealousy the number- one killer
among black folk
Db
Fellas be under some type of spell
Bbsus4
like crack smoke
Ghetto Cinderellas lead 'em
Bb
right to your stack, loc
Gbmaj7
Just another way a chick'll lead to your end
Bbsus4
I checked the dictionary
Bb
for the meaning of friend
Db
It said, "Person one likes to socialize with
Bbsus4
Sympathizer, helper",
Bb
and that's about the size of it
Gbmaj7
Most of the time
Bbsus4
these attributes is one- sided
To bolster the crime,
Bb
they're apt to shoot you through your eyelid
Db
and they can't hide it,
Bbsus4
going wild like a white bitch
Bb
Sometimes you need to cut niggas off
like a light switch (Flick!)
And when things get quiet
Bbsus4
Catch 'em like a thief in the night
(Wow!) what a riot
Db
Bbsus4
I first met Mr. Fantastik at a arms deal
Don't let it get drastic,
Bb
Gbmaj7
think of how your moms'll feel
When it get for real,
Bbsus4
steel get to sparkin',
Bb
Everything darken, it ain't no talkin'
Db
For somethin' so cheap,
it sure buys a lot of trouble
Bbsus4
You're better off focusing
Bb
than tryna plot to bubble
Gbmaj7
Or else it'd be a sad note to end on,
the guns we got is
Gbmaj7
(Ones we can depend on, friends)
Some come in the form
Bbsus4
of co- dependents
Bb
A lot of times only end up
being co-defendants
Gbmaj7
Ten bucks say they tell
Bbsus4
for a lower sentence
Bb
And leave you up under the jail,
begging for repentance
Gbmaj7
It don't make no sense,
Bbsus4
what happened to the loyalty?
Bb
Honor amongst crooks, trust amongst royalty
Gbmaj7
I'd rather go out in a blaze
Bbsus4
than give 'em the glory
Bb
(How many of us have--) a similar story?
Db
(Friends) before lovers,
Bbsus4
we used to have some type of over standing
Bb
Just so when I let her get the man thing
Gbmaj7
She know it's no strings,
Bbsus4
we could do the damn thing
But ho, it's no rings,
Bb
just how the tramp swings
Db
Will she see him again? That depends on
Bbsus4
"How good was the skins?" and
Bb
"Could she memorize the lessons?"
Gbmaj7
it ain't no need to pretend
Bbsus4
Even though she let him stab it,
Bb
she know they're just friends
