Tyrese, The Roots, Ludacris - My Best Friend lyrics
[Tyrese, The Roots, Ludacris - My Best Friend lyrics]
I’ma do everything in my strength
To keep you near let’s go
All the many days you were on my mind
Visions of me with you all the time
I do whatever puts a smile on my baby's face
My best friend and you can never be replaced
Yuh, yo i'm on that homicide, suicide
Drama like Islamabad
Under God, goin' overboard like the Amistad
Ringin' bells, it was 2012 back in ‘95
I made it out alive, now, finally
I've arrived but still threw back to all
My other blue black
People that's stickin' to it like
Mice to a glue trap
My work speak for it'self
So I don't interrupt
I am an expert, this is no beginner's luck
If you denyin' the truth
Then I don't give a fuck
Otherwise, get your hands and
Your antennas up
As we go into our initial decent, I'm alive
But only fifty percent
I’m prayin' God give me the strength
It’s like somebody turned on the light
(Turned on the light)
It’s like somebody started a fire
And I feel so alive
Finally, I’ve realized that I don't
Have to tell myself twice
I know that you've changed my whole life
And if I know there’s one
Thing that’s the truth
I know I’d be lost if I lost you
(Here in my life, just you and I)
What am I gonna do?
(Here in my life, just you and I)
My best friend and you can never be replaced
They say tomorrow’s not promised today
But today I promise if we
Don’t make our own way
Somebody’ll take it from us
Snatch it like rats to cheese so, Lord
Help me please 'cause I rather die on my
Feet than to live on my knees
Living like I’m bulletproof
Cockin' the Glock and aim and shoot
My future’s ever clear, a 180 proof
So I open the bottle then swallow my
Pride and drink the pain away
I take shots and just lay up then fade away
Dreamin' of better days
Dreamin' of better pay
But we got our work cut out for us
So we better pray pray to uphold the weak
Not for eternal sleep
But if I die, I pray the Lord my soul to keep
It’s like somebody turned on the light
(Turned on the light)
It’s like somebody started a fire
And I feel so alive
Finally, I’ve realized that I don't
Have to tell myself twice
I know that you've changed my whole life
And if I know there’s one
Thing that’s the truth
I know I’d be lost if I lost you
(Here in my life, just you and I)
(Here in my life, just you and I)
You can never be replaced
To keep you near let’s go
All the many days you were on my mind
Visions of me with you all the time
I do whatever puts a smile on my baby's face
My best friend and you can never be replaced
Yuh, yo i'm on that homicide, suicide
Drama like Islamabad
