Royce da 5'9" - Strong Friend lyrics

Reflections of your strong friend
You need to check up on your strong friend
Nobody ever checks up on the strong friend
Uh, strong friend

I remember 2003, out hear screaming
"We next"
I was grippin' that 300, Rock & Rye Lexus GS
I put rhinestones in my durag
I put on leather pants
I went to parties just
For Bacardi, I tricked, i never danced
All my friends expect to be treated
Just as my next of kin
Eyebrows lift up if I'm out with
Them and let them spend the question is
"How is y'all problems becoming my problems?
I'm already hiding all of my
Problems behind my pop' problems"
When I was nine
Seen my father beat the shit out of my momma
I'm smilin' right now
I'm trying not to cry about her
Alcoholic, I just spent five thousand tryna
Buy bottles of Patron again
Now sing along with your strongest friend

Suicide, it's a suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide
Suicide, it's a suicide

You need to check up on your strong friend
The one with strength that's never gon' end
The one with sense
Take care of several grown men
Pay they rent and then they trade on him
The Devil play to win
I remember I had Maia Campbell
In my Mercedes Benz
You probably thought she gave in to
The plot of Satan's sin
She got demons greater than, you and I
And this message is to Denaun and to Shady
You say we friends? Well take care of Lyric
80 and baby Quinn like they Hailie then
Well shit, it's my funeral
Y'all should play all of my songs too
Hope my body look beautiful
While I lay in my strong suit
Rumors spread about me that ain't true
That's how the fake do
If I'm the strong friend
Then what the fuck do that make you?!

Check up on your strong friend, uh
"It's funny
They laugh at me because I'm different
But I laugh at them because they're
All the same" - Kurt Cobain
"We all just suicidal kids
Telling other suicidal kids
Suicide ain't the answer" - Kendrick Lamar
"The worst thing to call somebody is crazy
It's dismissive
I don't understand this person so he's crazy
That's bullshit, these people are not crazy
They're strong people
Maybe their environment is a little
Sick" - Dave Chappelle
"Black people don't know a goddamn
Thing about therapy" - Self
Capital STEEZ, Tyheim, Chester Bennington
Rest in peace my strong friends
