Fake Friends” [Intro] clean electric guitar riff, syncopated kick drum, shaker [Spoken Male Vocals] Man… too many fake friends wanna see me down. They smile in your face just to hide they intentions. Soon as you turn your back… They reveal who they really are. Fake friends. Trust nobody. Focus on your own vision. ’Cause half these dudes clap for you in public, But pray on your downfall in private. Only God can save me. Holla. ⸻ [Verse 1] I been walkin’ through the fire with my head high, Cold nights, dark thoughts, but I still ride. People say they love you, then they switch sides, Smilin’ in your face while they jealous inside. Had brothers at the table eatin’ off my plate, Now they gossip on my name every chance they take. Funny how success make the fake relate, Then they disappear quick when you lose your way. I seen loyalty fade over money and pride, Seen real ones change when the pressure applied. That’s why I move silent, keep my circle tight, Too many snakes hide behind a friendly vibe. Mama told me, “Boy, watch the company you keep,” Some will dig your grave while pretendin’ they sleep. Now I pray to God every night before dreams, Ask Him give me strength when the world too weak. ⸻ [Hook / Chorus] Fake friends, fake love, fake smiles everywhere, They only come around when the money there. When you down bad, ain’t nobody care, That’s why I trust God every single prayer. Fake friends, all they do is envy, Actin’ like family but they empty. I learned pain turn a young soul deadly, Now I move alone if you ain’t with me. ⸻ [Verse 2] Yeah, I came from the bottom where the nights cold, Had to learn quick everybody ain’t your bro. Some people love you only when your light low, But hate to see you shine when your life glow. I got scars I don’t show on the surface, Still fightin’ all these demons with a purpose. People throw dirt on your name for attention, Then act innocent when you ask questions. I don’t need applause, I don’t chase crowds, Real kings move quiet, never too loud. Used to want revenge, now I let go, ’Cause karma hit harder than the fists throw. And every betrayal made me wiser, Turned pain into fuel and the flow got brighter. Now I thank God for revealin’ the liars, Cut the fake love off like live wires. ⸻ [Bridge] Late nights… thinkin’ who really with me. Dark skies… but the faith still lift me. I done lost people I thought would never switch, Now my heart cold but my vision rich. ⸻ [Final Chorus] Fake friends, fake love, fake smiles everywhere, They only come around when the money there. When you down bad, ain’t nobody care, That’s why I trust God every single prayer. Fake friends… Yeah, I seen the real through the fake now. Built myself up from the breakdown. Only God can save me… Holla.
