I've been there when you needed me the most Had your back when you were broke I've shown you love when there's no hope You were my friend, like blood Like brothers, like family And I say damn Where would you be without me? Without me I'm fucking tired of playing God when you in need The choices you made are on you completely, what's it got to do with me? You mobbing through the streets, clueless but it's not like you could see You know I'm cool, so you take it like it's an opportunity To get some free money, damn you ain't got no shame You been living off of my dough, bitch I'm not your bank You be asking to borrow knowing that you not gon' pay Abusing the privilege my nigga, that is not okay Why don't you get it? I shouldn't have to explain it Our foundation should be on some real shit, not you asking for payments So create a dream, then get off your ass and then chase it I'm mad and frustrated dealing with this shit, I'm lacking the patience You the homie, I don't mind you coming around dog But I should not have to pay for your downfall Choose your faith, but still even if your day seem great Just know I got your fucking back either way, you already know I've been there when you needed me the most Had your back when you were broke I've shown you love when there's no hope You were my friend, like blood Like brothers, like family And I say damn Where would you be without me? Without me Now my own family tripping, I ain't think I would get this shit from siblings The money I'm making is yours right? It's a given Let me tell y'all why I get a different feeling Y'all was living good watching me and my momma struggle once we get the bills in I don't recall any help or sympathies Since 15 I been paying rent, you know what that did to me? Could have been here, had this rap shit popping off, if y'all had lent the hand But y'all wasn't worried 'bout helping us, you had a different plan Focused on yourself, and now you holding on for help You were self centered, and that was just an open door to hell Oh, you need some money now, yeah of course I know the deal You want the benefits without playing the courses on the field You ain't even doing your best or trying Don't ask me for shit unless you dying, this is me testifying Just know that when your bright days going straight I couldn't have your back without feeling strange but you already know I've been there when you needed me the most Had your back when you were broke I've shown you love when there's no hope You were my friend, like blood Like brothers, like family And I say damn Where would you be without me? Without me Money can leave you isolated cause people are shady So why debate it? They love cash and fantasize to make it To get it, we'll fight and break shit, develop unrighteous ways Even taking the side with Satan, thankfully I've awaken Foes who abused the privilege by having those who were gifted Around them close and they vision, stop corroding your friendships Don't be having your hands out, smiling, hoping to get shit Mooching off of a man's treasure is bogus and it's just Not the way you should function with brothers when you're amongst 'em That is what we call punk shit and it can leave you stuck in A boat that's already sunken, this can happen to anyone Sisters, brothers and cousins, they disrespecting, then fuck 'em That's the way that the fountain leaks, keep on pushing your boundaries In due time I am bound to see all the snakes that surrounded me I know that if my brightest days turn gray You wouldn't have my back unless there was pay, it ain't no secret I've been there when you needed me the most Had your back when you were broke I've shown you love when there's no hope You were my friend, like blood Like brothers, like family And I say damn Where would you be without me? Without me
