Friends

Have you ever been stabbed in the back
 By someone you thought was really cool?
 Did they steal your lover, or was it money
 Or was it lies they told?
 Strangers just disguised as your friends
 Never again, 'cause now you know
 That friends will let you down, friends won't be around
 When you need them most, where are your friends?
 Friends are hard to find, friends, yours and mine
 I'm talkin' 'bout your friends
 Smiles they hide behind, never know what's on their mind
 Could be true deception
 Jealousy and envy reign, never want to see you get ahead
 They just hold you back
 Friends will let you down, friends won't be around
 When you need them most, where are your friends? Oh
 Friends are hard to find, friends, yours and mine
 I'm talkin' 'bout your friends
 Friends are hard to find, so be careful
 You'll get fried in the end to remind and prepare you
 Some ain't that bad, but one might back stab
 To get their fingertips on what one might have
 Bite the hand that feeds you, lead the people
 Who need you, from those who hold you back and mislead you
 So be a leader, don't get lead on or led in
 The wrong direction, a dead-end's next then
 Use your detour, life's like a seesaw
 Ups and downs, and I'll bet there'll be more
 Potholes and obstacles in a path
 That's righteous, at times we need a hand to fight this
 Way of life, straighten up, take the thought
 And replace it, and don't you act two-faced'd
 'Cause jealousy and envy and you still
 Act friendly, you'll get fried in the end when you pretend to be
 Friends will let you down, friends won't be around
 When you need them most, where are your friends? Yeah
 Friends are hard to find, friends, yours and mine
 I'm talkin' 'bout your friends

 You used to me kiss me, tell me you missed me
 But now you try to glaze me, play me, and diss me
 I'm wide awake, ready to break, so we'd argue
 What happened to the kisses and Ra how are you?
 Forgot about the times when I rhymed, when I bathed you
 Rings was the only little things that I gave you
 Still ain't thankful, you're still complainin'
 Used to be a quiet storm but now it's rainin'
 Harder than ever, I'm thinkin' whether
 If we should be friends, let it end, is it better?
 To forget or remember, your body's tender
 The vibes that I send her, makes her surrender
 The feelings of capture, caught in a rapture
 No woman can match ya, so when I'm lookin' at ya
 Paint a perfect picture so you can remember me
 But you'll get fried in the end if you pretend to be
 Friends will let you down, friends won't be around
 When you need them most, where are your friends? Oh
 Friends are hard to find, friends, yours and mine
 I'm talkin' 'bout your friends
 Friends will let you down, friends won't be around
 When you need them most, where are your friends? Yeah
 Friends are hard to find, friends, yours and mine
 I'm talkin' 'bout your friends
