Friends Lyrics

D-Block, uh, so raspy, ice pick forever
Harlem, I'm ready

Probably got animals but you don't tame 'em (nah)
When you ride with ya dogs you gotta train 'em (mmm)
'Cause if it get outta hand you can't restrain 'em
Niggas will do dumb shit thinkin' that you gon' save 'em
Now they think you betrayed them (facts)
When that bag on the line you gotta play chess
Doin' niggas dirty for nothin', how you gon' stay fresh?
Heard they pray on my downfall, but I'ma stay blessed
Now it's quiet for them, like they takin' a state test
Don't play in my life go play Cee-lo, that thing gon' stutta like dutta man, don't play Nino
Niggas runnin' around like goons thinkin' that we know
'Til I get 'em clapped on Friday for playin' Deebo!
Cut class but after school wasn't mackin'
When niggas was in after-school I was trappin' (yup)
When you see frauds act a fool, they just actin' (yup)
Nah we don't scrap with dudes, we just clap 'em (boom)
Niggas hate me 'cause I floss too much (yup)
But they didn't hate me when they used to cost too much (whoo)
That's why I keep a small circle, people cross too much
Yeah they was winnin' but lost they touch
I'm Nino Man

Distinctive voice is clearly how most remembered me
I'm deep like them Instagram posts from Emery
Blood make you related but I go off energy
Back and fourth with Nino, to show off chemistry
Grown man, I don't bust down my watches
I wear classic pieces, nothin' obnoxious (classic)
Long as the streets need this, nothin' can stop this
Goggles over the skully with the Gucci golashes
More men in Grammys, no Oscars
Calamari and Salmon, no Lobsters
Know the big homies, I know mobsters
That cooked up families and hold them hostage
Sign the hitlist? Just mind ya business
'Cause you know they can't wait to line the witness
The clock might stop but the time is endless
They want us to lose but we designed to win this
Not enough bitches and too many bitch niggas
That's why you gotta leave 'em in a hole, bitch niggas
Too many fake Rico and Mitch niggas
The shoes is your size, they don't fit niggas (they don't fit)
With my own eyes I seen it (I seen it)
Neva call a nigga ya friend if you don't mean it
Nah, with my own eyes I seen it
Neva call a nigga ya friend if you don't mean it

I don't do that friend shit I do fam
Niggas'll go half with you try to clip ya grams
Niggas'll see the blueprint, try to switch the plans
Niggas'll add their two cents, ain't shit to scan
Trust is something you earn, the pussy nigga wrong and he ain't gonna something to burn
Yeah the colder the streets, well it's something to learn
As a youth, like you can't go to jail if they don't got proof
Moet on the roof, marijuana in the lobby
That's your friend but you can't trust 'em to catch a body
But you in the Benz 'cause you got similar hobbies
Like similar hoes, like similar parties
That buddy buddy shit will get you murked in the place
Monkey see, monkey do, don't work with the apes
It's a jungle out here, can't work with the jakes
Either get them long things or you work with the eights
These niggas is too soft these rappers are too friendly
The old me I would have smacked 'em with two Henny's
But now I'm being positive
The cognitive skills just seems anonymous
And I'm anonymous, but not behind a keyboard
Violate my homie and get a keloid
Now that's a frienship
And we ain't blood but this is kinship
Violate one of my niggas and I'ma end shit

Friends
How many of us have them
Friends
Ones we can depend on
Friends
How many of us have them
Friends
Before we go any further
Let's be friends
