Never Be Friends

[Intro: Billboard &  Game]

This is my nigga since we was kids like..  You know I'm sayin', we was like the uh.. You could say like a gangbang dynasty or something'. His older brother and my cousin ran together so that hooked us up together since we was kids you know I'm sayin'?

We both used to spit but like he took it more serious than me

You know what I'm sayin'? I was fuckin' up in and out of jail

But Game came back and got me like he said he would so you know what I'm sayin' it's Black Wall Street. Me and The Game

Never be friends, nah

Never be friends

[Verse 1]

Yeah

Though I walk through the valley of death

Vest on teflon now I approached in my Hurricane sweats

Black crow on my shoulder, Big Will 'till it's over

He never got to see me put black chrome on the rover

Readin' your obituary, wishin' we never met

So I wouldn't have to shed tears or wake up in cold sweats

Lookin' at this bottle of Hennessy wishin' you never left

Wishin' I chased your Monte Carlo down and gave you my vest

Or better yet, I wish they never let you out

And I never got that phone call tellin' me that you out

Wish you never signed the release form

I wouldn't have to clear this sample

Or use this track to say rest in peace for him

You wanted to know if Dre and Em felt you

They did, and before I could tell you somebody killed you

I feel pain for everybody that ever knew the real you

Call Nas let him know I got a Ill Will too

[Chorus]

My nigga, If you look In the mirror, would you see things clearer

My nigga who I live, who I live for (Haha, my nigga)

And you know where you headed, do you know who you are

And why you do the things you do (My nigga)

My nigga, If you look In the mirror, would you see things clearer

My nigga who I live, who I live for (My nigga)

And you know where you headed, do you know who you are

And why you do the things you do (My nigga)

[Verse 2]

Niggas politicin' wanna know why I'm rhymin' different

My best friend got murdered nigga my mind is different

If you ain't never spend no time in prison

You can't understand these bars or the lines I'm spittin'

Niggas rilin' me up, let's go find the victim

I can't do it homie, that's the reason Shyne in prison

And through divine intervention 10 plus years doing crime in the trenches

Multiplied by the time that we spent in the kitchen

Is a life worth of hard livin Cuban cigar tippin'

12th grade ditchin', purple served by the jar sippin'

If you lost a homie, you know friendship is God given

I done seen the church so much, you'd think I was born Christian

I done seen more dead bodies than a mortitian

Seen niggas in and out of county blues like they was born crippin'

So I'mma keep on livin 'cause when I'm gone

Niggas ain't gon do shit but fuck my bitch and pour liqour

[Chorus]

My nigga, If you look In the mirror, would you see things clearer

My nigga who I live, who I live for (Haha, my nigga)

And you know where you headed, do you know who you are

And why you do the things you do (My nigga)

My nigga, If you look In the mirror, would you see things clearer

My nigga who I live, who I live for (My nigga)

And you know where you headed, do you know who you are

And why you do the things you do (My nigga)

[Verse 3]

What If you was me and you had to sit through an entire funeral

While the pastor readin' your homeboy's eulogy

I'm already dead, what the fuck you gon' do to me

Keep talkin' shit I'll empty my clip in that G-Unit tee

Gimme a minute to say my grace with God

I see your face in the mirror I came a long way to talk and tell you

Your moms is missin' you, your pops is missin' you

Just saw your baby pictures in your grandmother's living room

Fase is missin' you, homie Wink is missin' you

Thank God you left us memories and songs to listen to

Velle is missin' you, the 'hood is missin' you

Let my son graduate high school, and I'mma come visit you

The world is missin' you, Eminem was feelin' you

Dre said he felt your vibe the little time he spent with you

Pour the Henny out cause he ain't here in the physical

They say real men don't cry but nigga I'm missin' you

[Chorus]

My nigga, If you look In the mirror, would you see things clearer

My nigga who I live, who I live for (Haha, my nigga)

And you know where you headed, do you know who you are

And why you do the things you do (My nigga)

My nigga, If you look In the mirror, would you see things clearer

My nigga who I live, who I live for (My nigga)

And you know where you headed, do you know who you are

And why you do the things you do (My nigga)

[Outro: Billboard]

The first day, the first day I got out of jail you know what I'm sayin'

Nigga phillin', you know what I'm sayin', everything still fresh to a nigga man, I'm doing videos with Cam'Ron and Dipset and Game

You know what I'm sayin', like fuckin' bitches in the studio

You know what I'm sayin' it was kinda crazy when I first came home but I adapted to it and now I love it

You know what I'm sayin'? I done been to fuckin' uh..

I'm straight out of Compton my nigga

I done been to uh New York, Harlem, all through that motherfucka'

Miami, Atlanta, Detroit. I'm fuckin' with Eminem, Dre, 50

All kind of niggas you know what I'm sayin'? So I been movin' man
