All of my "let's just be friends" Are friends I don't have anymore How do you not check on me when things go wrong? Guess I should have tried to keep my family closer, much closer All of my "let's just be friends" Are friends I don't have anymore Guess it's what they say you need family for 'Cause I can't depend on you anymore Always saw you for what you could have been Ever since you met me like when Chrysler made that one car That looked just like a Bentley I Always saw you for what you could have been And even when it's business with you it's personal again I knew you before you made ends meet And now were meeting out end And it's all because you chose a side You're supposed to put your pride aside and ride for me Guess it wasn't time And of course you went and chose a side that wasn't mine You're so predictable, I hate people like you Kennedy Road taught me not to trust people like you How you supposed to figure out what I'm goin' through? You can't even figure out what's going on with you You judged me before you met me, yeah, it figures I make all the players anthems for the real niggas With my Dad out in Tennessee is where I belong Out here in L.A. I don't know what's going on I don't know what's going on And it's all because you chose a side You're supposed to put your pride aside and ride for me Guess it wasn't time, yeah And of course you went and chose a side that wasn't mine You sit and you pray hoping that the stars align My luck is a sure thing 'cause I'm living right When I needed you you couldn't give me any advice You always had something to say every other time Everybody that I met on the way tries to get in the way I'm fooding and serving tomorrow like I'm working minimum wage Someone up there must just love testing my patience Someone up there must be in need of some entertainment Forgiveness for your ways If I ever loved you I'll always love you, that's how I was raised Same way I'm right here still feeling a way Same way I'm realizing on a day to day that All of my "let's just be friends" Are friends I don't have anymore How do you not check on me when things go wrong? Guess I should have tried to keep my family closer, much closer All of my "let's just be friends" Are friends I don't have anymore Guess it's what they say you need family for 'Cause I can't depend on you anymore Much closer Anytime people want to start problems It's like "for real, are you dumb?" You know who mans are I'm not afraid no gyal heart man And I'm not afraid of no cyattie And I'm not afraid of no waste yute neither So anybody who want it can get it Seh feh
