I Lost My Friends

I lost my friends To so much Unnecessary drama That kept coming around Around the corner We didn't want no trouble We just defended ourselves The only way we knew how was to fight I lost my friends To so many fistfights That we had when we was younger Always arguing about nothing When it was something in the room Nobody wanted to admit it So everybody started fighting Now everybody's shooting everybody For I got the code Once you grew up in the hood Everybody gotta fight If you don't fight Everybody get a knife Or get a bottle Get something Some people will go crazy With the knife Just watching with the hands With the hand quick speed That they come with I lost my friends To the chain gang I lost some good people That was only genuine and real Only defended they selves By catching a few bodies They didn't wanna do They said f*ck I regret it now But I said if I didn't do it My life would be gone Y'all be crying about me Having me on a shirt R.I.P I lost my friends Some friends I can vent to About all my problems Cause they do it to me So we just vent everything That we feeling Even if it's in anger I just vent everything To my best friend When I can't If he don't answer I just hit him with a text Like what's up What's good He always tell me Keep my head up Think positive Now don't think negative Cause you know where you would go If you think negative Can't nobody stop you Can't nobody stop the bull rush That you turn into Only see red in your eyes That's why I tell you to stay high All the time Like a Rastafarian That I am Only follow the real knowledge of Self That I wanna do I lost all my younger friends To the streets I lost some good friends That I only wanted to be brothers With Cause we had that brother bond The brother bond That me and my cousin have Cause we act the same On so many things We see life as another way Everybody's different Everybody see it as their own way So When I had my first son Everything came clear to me Walking in the light Tryna see everything in my past I gotta tell him bout it But not about everything So when I tell him I'm just gon tell him Listen to the songs that I put out Then you'll get your answers there Why I love you so much Cause my life was so fucking crazy I don't want you to go through Nothing like that Fight everyday to keep you here In my arms Never wanna bury you in a coffin Like most people gotta do their Children When they come out and fence When they come to a teenager stage Get shot Always been a victim in the streets Cause somebody can't get who they Want So they get an innocent person They just shoot Innocent people tell me why they do That If they scared they scared Some will fight, some will run, some will shoot What you expect them to do I lost so many friends to drama To the violence of the streets Of the world that they try to take in Knew a few friends that popped pills On the regular Said it made them feel so fucking Numb to the world All the drama that they had in their Life They just wanted to numb it and be Free For the moment when the stress coming their way Never wanna be stressed in a calm situation Never thinking bout nothing good Always thinking bout something bad That's going on
