Friends, you need to understand
Who's by your side, who will lend a hand
Fake and real, a line in the sand
Fake friends push you down, ain't that grand
Fake friends, they'll drag you down, ooh ooh
But real friends, they'll lift you up, oh ooh
Learn who's real, who's true
By your side, through and through
Fake friends want your money, your fame
Always wanting more, playing a game
Real friends just want your smile, your joy
Laugh and hang out, make memories
Bring you peace
Fake friends, they'll drag you down, ooh ooh
But real friends, they'll lift you up, oh ooh
Learn who's real, who's true
By your side, through and through
Don't be fooled, don't fall for the lies
Leaving true friends for those in disguise
Regret will come knocking, fast and hard
Choose wisely, keep real friends close to your heart
Fake friends, they'll drag you down, ooh ooh
But real friends, they'll lift you up, oh ooh
Learn who's real, who's true
By your side, through and through
True friends, a treasure so rare
In their love and laughter, you'll find care
Don't let the fake ones lead you nowhere
Hold on to the real, they'll light your way
