[ Featuring Denaun ]
Shucks folks I'm speechless Huh huh
As for you my galvanized friend you want a heart
You don't know how lucky you are not to have one
Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable
But I I still want one!
Now you smile in my face like you love me
But keep that knife close to my back waiting for the chance the chance
To take the ground I walk on right from under me
But shed a tear for me when you push me off the ledge
But how many of us have them type of friends?
How many of us have them type of friends? (Yeah How many? How many? Too many Yeah)
How many of us have them type of friends? (How many friends man? How many? Yeah)
How many of us have them type of friends? (Yo! Ahem Listen Yeah)
How many of us?
Some friends are shady other friends are loyal
Win your heart against the odds (Oz) like the Tin Man and the oil (It ticks!)
Some stay independent like the necklace of a royal
Some friends refuse to tend the soil
Yeah
The type you'll never see 'em try but thinks you're ever bein' sly
Always heresy implied with his jealousy and lies
Gettin paranoid with all the gin and Hennessy he imbibes
And the legacy? Demise
You should never be surprised (Never be surprised)
Man you reap what you sew
So only speak what you know
And if you're keepin' secrets bro I ain't peepin' it (Nah)
Some of y'all got schemin' growin' in your hemoglobin (Yo)
Your actions aren't thought out (thawed out) - that's why they're cold as freezin' below
I refuse to be embedded in these petty disputes
One party levies accusations other heavy refutes
Under scrutiny he'll generate any excuse
Man that's a friendship that you best be ready to lose
Now you smile in my face like you love me
But keep that knife close to my back waiting for the chance the chance
To take the ground I walk on right from under me
But shed a tear for me when you push me off the ledge
But how many of us have them type of friends? (How many? Too many)
How many of us have them type of friends? (How many? Too many Yo)
How many of us have them type of friends? (Many men many many many many men)
How many of us have them type of friends? (Yeah)
How many of us? (Yeah)
Ya I know some snakes but I got a lotta homies
Them real dudes who try to get to know me
No ulterior motives never actin' phony
Don't consider themselves above or below me
Some friends are for real some'll til soil
Some'll do whatever it takes toil and ache
Boost your self esteem like a kettle when it boils
Help you find the poison snake before it coils
The type you'll trust with your life through all the struggle and strife
You'll forge a connection that you couldn't cut with a knife
Seal it with your blood on the mic
They'll be your brothers for life
With the right luck they'll never covet your wife
The kinda dudes that you can hit from the blue
You know they'll listen to you and always give you the truth
You can conquer anything if you just stick as a crew
That's what we're fixin' to do ever since our trip to the Louvre
I know we'll never grow diffuse and apart
Even through our arguments you'll be boostin' my art
No room for narcissism
If you're stewin' take a cruise in the park
We can tighten our bonds while we loosen our hearts
Some nights are for Fun
Some days are for glory
Sometimes you're just a figure in somebody else's story
The simple trick is to adhere what you appear to
My paradise (pair o' dice) is hangin' from the rear view
So here's to some real dudes
How many of us have them type of friends?
How many of us have them type of friends?
How many of us have them type of friends?
How many of us have them type of friends?
How many of us?
