"friend"
Just listen to my raps and snaps of the truth
Don't let me lie and make you ask why my mind is a pay booth
you of all people should know that it hurts to show everyone how i feel
after all, i trusted you to keep my secret, but doing so made me an idiot this is for real
Its pretty hard to deal with what is real cause haters like you wish they knew
exactly why it is that our dreams die, i see that don't you know, do you?
Oh yes, i seem to have cornered you in a mental chess, better think fast lest
i come back from the past, like a mental blast, this ain't no test
I chase you in your own mind, better not trip on my mines that i laid on the floor
This is a different kind of battle, better get a saddle, cause this horse is mine, i bought you like a store, yet i don't come back for more, cause all your products are corrupt
all so screwed up, useless they are, i don't have to look far to find better
One look at you and i’ll send you back like a letter in the mail, and i’ll put your raps on sale
20 cents a piece cause at least your that good, but would you just realize that your out of line
You don't have to look at the sign, petty rapper here getting high, don't bother asking why
I look at a fellow and say, by damn that ghetto, then i see that your just a wanna be that cries
Hear the music in you heart, let it jump start your mind and please mind the if, buts, and whys
cause people just don't like to hear the genius that's already here, so just do good and hear the cheers and cries, that fill the stadium when we go big, like a bomb rigged to go bam
Feel the shock wave bounce across the stage, and look into the crowd and cram
their awe into your soul, role it like a blunt, but dont pull off a stunt, cause that would be bad
Get an automatic high, make it feel like you fly in the sky, and dont look sad
cause that would make you quite mad, put a frown on your face, give you a taste
of depression, put you in a state of recession, no need to be quite haste
cause we still got plenty of time, to rhyme all we have to say
Cause im not going away, im here to stay, just going to lay down and try not to frown
going to go around town in my brain, like a kind of mental train, and become crowned king
put the petal to the metal, come on lets setal down, lets put everything back together
Lets try to make it better, try not to tether ourselves to a post, and lets not misplace a feather
I told you that i would speak the truth, and you always knew i would
so please good fellow, lets follow the yellow brick road
That we wont get lost, but on the way home, look back at all the pain you caused
at all the people you have hurt, worn them out like a tee shirt
we you used to be friends, but it turns out you just pretended to be
so that in the end, you would bring me down when i would finally ascend
the hight of fame, and now nothing will ever be the same
man this world is quite insane, one day its a sunny day
then its full of rain, all falling down around us
so im going to have to let you go, but please know that you forced me to do this
life is like a fish, slippery and able to slip out of your grasp, i just wish
that i saw you for what you really are, before i had come so far
and so now i bid you farewell me once good friend, but when you need help
i'm sorry i wont lend a hand to a pretend friend
Don't let me lie and make you ask why my mind is a pay booth
you of all people should know that it hurts to show everyone how i feel
after all, i trusted you to keep my secret, but doing so made me an idiot this is for real
