Yo, I'm sending this one out to me
My homeboys, they homeboys and homegirls
And anybody that think they got 'em
And anybody that's lost anything
Even as much as a life behind one
As a child you see the world as being a playground
Playing around, kids in the hood
Everything is all good, it's understood on that big wheeler
But when you make it, then they can't feel you
Roll the dice and hit the wrong point, they tryna get you
Fear no man but God, but still watch what they do
On this hard, I swear this life thing is getting so confusing
Keep using your mind and maintain as the kind that remains
The longest on the planet, dummies get swept up off the ground
Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear
Look around, one by one your homeboys disappear
It's clear that the snakes stay among us
But who's in the best position to run up?
Your player-hating friends that watch you come up
Stuck between a rock and a hard place
Bad enough you had to hurt him, on top of that you caught a case
Stupid look on your face
Mad at yourself because your bitch shouldn't
Have been in the streets in the first place
Who's real, who's fake, you'll never know (Never know)
God help distinguish friend or foe (Distinguish friend or foe)
Mama always warned me of busters
She said they'll get you killed or have you wearing orange colors
Mom put it on my mind over and over again
Boy you be stuck like Chuck every time for putting your faith in man
I gots to check myself, I'm seeing what they doing to me
Starting to get shady myself, messing 'round in this community
Can't even trust your broad, a major factor in this drama
I learned that firsthand from my baby's mama
That's why I'ma never take 'em serious
Got a heartache and a pocket ache for seeing curious
Got me furious, ghetto ways is hard to let go
Coming out the ghetto and the same ones that's clapping
Is the same ones that's pulling you back in
You never know, people are so unpredictable
It's best to get what you can get and go back to being solo
Plenty in the picture claiming to be all in with you if any
But if you all in with me, come and get me
Never say what someone won't do
Only a few will always stay true
Jealousy is always among you
Play it cool, don't be no fool
Never say what someone won't do
Only a few will always stay true
Jealousy is always among you
Play it cool, don't be no fool
Turned to the music industry as a way out
Spent too much time in jail, throw the hand at me
But now I'm trying to stay out independent and to win it
But now I'm tripping
On how these so-called thugs and G's is letting these people pimp 'em
Now who'd have thought that it'll be the same
In the rap game like my old game
The product is the only thing that's changed
It's a shame how this world can't be trusted
No matter the occupation or location
So-called friends'll have you busted and disgusted
In the meantime, play it cool, don't be no fool
Until you can rewind freedom with a long-handled spoon
Tired of being sick and tired, the feeling's mutual
Look, I gots to go because I'm late for a funeral
Who's real, who's fake, you'll never know (Never know)
God help distinguish friend or foe (Distinguish friend or foe)
Who's real, who's fake, you'll never know
God help distinguish friend or foe
