Friends

Hello, it’s been a sec,

I know I kept it quiet, took a break, but I need you to understand

That i’ve been feeling overwhelmed

And under pressure to try to get myself

Some sort of plan, what with this debt above my head

Cause now I got this new degree,

Yet still it seems people keep telling me things that they wanna believe

Like how I just blew all this money on dreams

Or how college showed me there’s no music scene

I’ve been taking some time, keeping in mind

All the people that I can count to hold a stake in my life

Desperate times call for anyone you can count on at night

But still I know that I have trouble answering texts on my line

Online, man that's another issue

Cause I feel like I've got a lot of things to work through

And even though I try to turn my phone off for a while

it’s getting harder just to look the other way, take some pics and fake a smile

Speaking of false, let’s get it straight

It’s hard to try figuring out a friend when you ain't with 'em face to face

But how can we be friends if we aint hanging all the time

And how can we meet up if it we’re afraid someone will die

Somewhere I have to draw a line between the ignorance

Really I’m sick of it

Can’t tell me what to make of this

With the professional shit

Questioning whether I trust people to lead

If I keep looking at my feed

And seeing shit I can’t believe

Like how you gonna say there ain't a disease

Running wild up In the world, that hasn’t haven’t hit a peak

It’s getting harder watching bars fill up with people

When artists and local venues and touring, for the forseable future

Don’t have a chance at playing shows,

Cause people don’t wash their hands or wear a mask,

Yet they wanna get mad

Cause "everything is fine"

Even though people are dying

I think it’s time to make a change

Cause I can’t deal with all the lying

Bury your Head

Try to Pretend

Money gives chances to try to impress

But Money Ain’t worth it if i’m still in debt

(Damn)

Clean up The Mess

Try to forget

All of the reasons that always let

issues get of of control in my head

I’m sick of

I’m sick of

I’m Sick of

Friends

(Aye)

Friends what does that mean

All that I see in my life is deceit

Cause artists don’t come around when you’re feeling down

I can’t fucking count on the friends I’ve found

Cause these fake snakes be like two face

And I can’t take all this dead weight

Cause these bro’s claim that we close

But hit me up only to go to their shows

Woah, I can’t really fuck with that they gotta go

Thing is that I’m way to scared to be alone

So I play along it’s wrong but I don’t know

If I’ll ever find some people that’ll

Love the real me cause I can’t seem

To be true to myself when I’m on the IG

So how can I expect to make some real friends

When I’m digging my own trench

That’s right I bury my head but this ain’t the hook

Cause 2020 ain’t been looking too good

Since the pandemic I’ve been so depressed

And that’s why I haven’t been answering texts

But that’s no excuse

I understand why my phone ain’t been ringing I’m not in demand

Maybe this verse will help turn shit around

Cause right now I ain’t proud of the way I’ve been treating my crowd

But to all the people who been standing by side through this hard time

I won’t ever find the words to thank you, you’re like family

And now I see who my real friends be

So imma remove the fake friends from my life

Turn a new leaf and throw out my disguise

Take it from me you wanna feel good enough

Then be open with the people that you love

Don’t ever (bury your head)

Bury your Head

Try to Pretend

Money gives chances to try to impress

But Money Ain’t worth it if i’m still in debt

(Damn)

Clean up The Mess

Try to forget

All of the reasons that always let

issues get of of control in my head

i’m sick of

I’m sick of

I’m Sick of

Friends

So here’s where I stand

I hope that you know

I’m losing my patience with every note

Cause I can’t play shows so how can I say

That I’m staying positive through all the pain

Cause I’ve lost some friends but gained so much family

No, what I’ve got isn’t bad but I know I need

To take a second and try to combat this idea our friends can be worse than our enemies

All my enemies were friends ‘fore they turned coat

And that wound don’t ever heal I can’t let go

Thought they’d be my ride or die for the long road

But they be like Danny Phantom, they go ghost

And they know too much

so then I form a grudge

And then I get in touch

with the inverse of love

But there’s enough hate in the world

So imma focus on my real friends ‘stead of old hurt

So fuck your quid pro quo

Because I know you know

That you’re just lying out your ass to pretend that I never show

What’s best for me and not for you and for my time I need to try

To cut the bullshit ties I’m sick of all the lines

Cause every line reminds me they ain’t worth my time

Lack of spine defines them gotta leave behind

My old life cause I cant keep clinging to the past

When these bitches ain’t worth bringing back

Tell me why you think that I should even give another chance

If all you’re gonna do I show up with nothing but empty hands

Ain’t no problem like Chance, my three chances are up

To anyone I used to love who claimed they ever gave a fuck

Claims are nothing if you don’t back up the words with any worth

Why’s this lesson so difficult for me to just fucking learn

And if you think I’m gonna be anything I don’t wanna be

Then you’re as lost as all the dollars I put into my degree
