Fake Friends

(1) They smile in my face, but they plot in the shade, (2) Claimin' they real, but their loyalty's fake, (3) Countin' the days, man, I’m watchin’ the snakes, (4) Friends turn to foes, yeah, that’s how it breaks. (5) Hustlin' hard while they chillin' in doubt, (6) Talkin' big game, but they never come out, (7) I see through the lies, like a clear glass pane, (8) Trust is a currency, they can’t buy the gain. (9) Late-night calls, but they ghost when it’s tough, (10) When the chips are down, man, they ain't never rough, (11) Claimin’ they ride, but they switch like the tides, (12) Keepin' my circle tight, only real ones inside. (13) Watchin' my back, got my eyes on the prize, (14) Fake friends fall off when the pressure arrives, (15) I’m chasin’ my dreams, while they stand in the dark, (16) Keepin' it streetwise, yeah, I'm playin’ my part.
