Marcus A. Brown, Co-still - Keep Ya' Enemies Closer Lyrics

See, I'ma cool ass nigga. Just ask the folks that know me
BD Folkz that be on 71st, yeah that's my homey
My Uncle Psyko All Well. My cousin, she the police
I fucks wit' everybody, if you family then we gon' eat
Got a lot of friends and I know some of them be phony
Call me when I owe them, but don't call me when they owe me
My mama told me when you reach the top it's gon' get lonely
But I can never call a friend a foe unless they show me
I'm trying to get this money, I ain't got time to play' no games
Even if a nigga cross me, I ain't got time to hate no lame
Never really understood it 'cause it always sounded strange
But now I see it clearly why my elders always say
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
They can stab you in ya' back before you look over your shoulder
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
'Cause all it takes is one misunderstanding then it's over
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
I feel safer around a hater if he's quick to let me know it
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
Even your friends can turn 'to haters and be in too deep to show it
If you my enemy, I want him right here
I'm fully dressed with my gloves and my snipe gear
Face mask all black, got the pipe here
A big mouth'll get cha' canned like a light beer
I'ma watch him like the feds
'Cause all my lil' bitches ran and told me what he said
So I'm just playin' my part, keep a 'K in the car
These lil' pussies keep a felon on the edge
Don't you know I'll get on the phone, play dumb
While killas sit at cha' home, "Hey son!"
One quick click of the chrome, spray 'em
While the the docs fixin' ya dome and God take em'. Damn
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
They can stab you in ya' back before you look over your shoulder
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
'Cause all it takes is one misunderstanding then it's over
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
I feel safer around a hater if he's quick to let me know it
You can keep ya' friends close, but keep ya' enemies closer
Even your friends can turn 'to haters and be in too deep to show it

See, I'ma cool ass nigga. Just ask the folks that know me
