Lyrics

Ayo, your homie ain't your homie if your homie ain't up on the phone
Calling just to see if you good when it's been a minute
Kids steady stressing him, old lady be testing him
Life really messing with him so I'm always blessing him
With good conversation, come through for a kickback
Sit back and chop it up about the bullshit
I wanna see my homies make it like no other
Brothers from a different mother, ain't nobody fucking with us
I'll take you out of the equation, call me the equalizer
No lie, there's always gotta be that guy
I guess that guy is me, I'm higher than a flying plane
Shoot you with a laser-guided missile, man I'm so insane
This a family, blueprint going worldwide
I'll take your throne by surprise, I'll just go inside
And tell the king to surrender and forfeit
Osh, Kopanics and Rick Bliss on your doorstep
No matter what is going on, I know I got my friends
No matter what is going on, I know we got our backs
'Til the very end, 'til the very end
Only kicking with real ones, no pretend, no pretend
No matter what is going on, I know I got my friends
No matter what is going on, I know we got our backs
'Til the very end, 'til the very end
Only kicking with real ones, no pretend, no pretend
My friend, my brother, I love you like no other
Whether we shared the same mother or we grew up just like cousins
Dozens of ya, I'm running with ya
Summon my bruh and he coming for ya
Gunning ya now, I summon the sound
Holler loud, say it loud, man I love my town
Even though it hate on me, police they used to raid on me
Clouds they always rain on me, my fate it never skate on me
But lately these things, they been weighing on me
Yeah but mainly these fiends, they been preying on me
Yeah but plainly you see, I don't be wasting the green
Got a cheek to live, I receive just to give
Currency is just a gig and friendship is truly the greatest gift
No matter what is going on, I know I got my friends
No matter what is going on, I know we got our backs
'Til the very end, 'til the very end
Only kicking with real ones, no pretend, no pretend
No matter what is going on, I know I got my friends
No matter what is going on, I know we got our backs
'Til the very end, 'til the very end
Only kicking with real ones, no pretend, no pretend
My real bros see me wanting to quit
But they can't let that go, send them words of encouragement
Through all this disturbed shit, they also know how it goes
We got our own issues but here to listen when we wanna say
Fuck it, blow my brains out on the table
I am so unstable but stable and at the same time I am able
To get past it on my own
'Cause I'm supposed to be the one that's grown
But sometimes rather be the man alone
Speaking of the grown
To the ones I have grown apart
Don't forget I remember all of our starts
Your wishes wherever on the map
To the friends of the past and the present, I tip my hat
