[Ghetts - Real Friends lyrics]
My voice is fucked so much work but
When I heard this, I
I had to get certain tings
Off my chest and whatnot, you feel me?
Real friends
Some niggas only real when there's benefit's
Couple niggas gone but we don't
Still attend the cemeteries
I only visited Wallace's grave twice
But I was with him every other day I
Wasn't in the studio, late nights
You don't know
That we was on the same grind, doing road
I'mma hear through the grapevine
But rumours go
That Reggie ain't the same guy
They used to know
I'm probably not, cause I don't rob or shot
It's funny
I became less hood when the robbin' stopped
Grew up in church with Marlon
André and Robert
But me and Mar were different
From André and Robert
Was André my brudda for life though?
Marlon my brudda but when I dial his number
I get
"Wah gwan family? I can't hear from you"
But who's ringing who? He
Ain't ringing my phone
You ain't a rapper but yet you
Want a verse from me
You own a rental company but you wanna
Give me a hearse for free
But you my nigga doe
Yeah, yeah, you my motherfucking nigga doe
We go back like Year 9, yeah right
Further, we go back like
Craig David's hairline
With me and Wes it's like it's love and hate
Hate him when I'm with him, I don't see him
Then it's love again
I want my niggas with me every single booking
Two-four I had my niggas with
Me every single booking
If bruddas weren't with me
In these back streets
Then bruddas ain't with me at the GRAMMYs
Hold tight my nigga CJ
I know you want the best for me
But please try and see things G's way
You was with me when I was detained
Look how far I've come
I know I ain't the biggest
But give me some leeway
I know it's hard to understand but
I don't wanna be Drake
I'm quite content being GH
Just saw something that fucked up my day
If only I could say this nigga's name
If only
What the fuck, fam? I thought you was my co-D
How you linking one of my baby
Mum's bredrins and never told me?
I hope when you hear this
You feel like a phony
Sideman antics, address it when you phone me
Dad, I know you're pissed with me
Kadeem and Aretha
It's a pity we ain't closer to Nadine
Kareen and Shanika
But that's just how it goes
You only see your cousins at a funeral
What's love when you feel like
The love isn't mutual?
All I know is how much I
Love my sister and my brudda
Anyone fucks with one or the other
I'll hold my gun up and I'll shoot 'em all
Yeah, I'm a family man, trust
My dad's mum lives in Shepherd's Bush
When you're young and you're from East
That's an excuse
But when you're older and you drive
It's "how come you don't see
Your granny that much?" it's mad
I love my gran though get me?
When I heard this, I
I had to get certain tings
Off my chest and whatnot, you feel me?
Real friends
Some niggas only real when there's benefit's
Couple niggas gone but we don't
Still attend the cemeteries
