Lyrics:

Schooled in America, taught to be greedy
And everything ought to be, easy
But I never could say goodbye to my friends who get high
I wonder why, I'm
by far, I could only afford about half this car, he said, friend, I know just what you mean
Tell you what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna cut that price in
You can pick your friends
And you are a very good friend but you
Cannot pick your family
Although I actually do like my family, and you
Can’t pick
been destroying by jealousy
My friends don’t believe that I can build a legacy
Been here for long time so what’s my remedy
Pen and paper writing rhymes
inspired me
Til I'd put on my headphones. You inspired me
The first friend I'd ever known. You inspired me, inspired me, inspired me
I'm grateful Lyfe
It was a party on a Friday I walked in with my crew
Hardly flashy, I'm rocking minimal jewels, fresh from my shoes
To my cut, keeping a low profile
For the past year
 I been putting my all in the music 
Friends asking what I'm doing 
I was
perfecting my craft 
Cuz I want it bad 
All my dreams I'm
far too short to be granted to the modern god David Bowie by this universe

There are two men in my apartment right now cutting up walls with power
Lord I started out for to take a little walk
Walked upon that Wild Bill Jones
He’s a-walking and a-talking by my true lover’s side
I bade him for
time in my life
You swept me off my feet with your chat up lines
Your confident walk and that sweet red wine
You were the gentleman I'd been waiting for
When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
And we're side by side it's always been just you and me
For all to see

When our lives are over
Butterfingers, 'cause I dippedy-drop um, 'nough styles
Iggedy eeny meeny miney moe
Shiggedy-bop, bap I'll snatch a rapper by his toe
Yo, I riggedy-write my
Then bad misfortune befell me 
And caused me to stray from the land 
Far away from my friends and companions 
To follow the black velvet band 

As I
the Gospels is intelligence
Praised as a virtue

A lot of people forget or never realize that
I started my band as a criticism of
These very issues of despair
a sad misfortune came over me
Which caused me to stray from the land
Far away from my friends and relations
Tied up by the black velvet band


Her eyes
the morning (Morning)
Had a show last night was performing (Jones)
I hear my phone vibrating
Decide to pick it up so I can know who was calling (Hello)
At first
A young gentleman 
Came riding past on a snow blue winter's day
He asked to drink by our fire
And I was pleased to let him stay
He drank there
A young gentleman 
Came riding past on a snow blue winter's day
He asked to drink by our fire
And I was pleased to let him stay
He drank there
they say
She's the lyinest woman in town

When I need attention at home
I'll call you on the phone
Come yourself, don't send your friend Jones
Do
Doc Martens cuz I'm always down for kickin'.
This my friend the city pity everywhere the enemy.
Ready or not homey stompin' everyone in front of me.
gettin' my heart broken as usual
My friends still saying that a nigga delusional
Girl you beautiful
This grindin' for your heart got me tired
It's just my
to keep it to myself
But I think it's time you know
See I've never been the type
To judge a person by their clothes
But jimmy this girl's a thorn
And my
your body wobbly
Still played hopscotch, had a basket pushing friend
Come by my grandmas house, gave him a water every now and then
God bless, God bless
I questioned that
Through thick and thin
You'll be my number one friend
Girl you are my everything
I put that on everything
Cribs about the world
