“My Friends” is a song that Drew envisions to be played while a group of friends are “hanging out and…smoking pot” (then following up by saying that is “inappropriate and you shouldn’t do it ‘cause it can make you go nutsy”).
Drew teased this song on his side Twitter on July 17:
This is the second...
[Verse 1]
My friends, oh we don't like it
When someone seething waits for I fall into the mountain
'Til someone holds and waits for you
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
My friends, oh we don't like it
No one sees we want to die and
I'll write a trite line
No one can hold me like you do
And that's not true
Holdin' is easy, it passes through
[Chorus]
Swing me for I save my life to me
You can tell that's somethin' to see
Swing me for I save my life to me
You can tell that's all I can be
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
My friends, oh we don't like it
When someone breathe in, waits before I fall into the fountain
'Til someone holds and waits for me
[Chorus]
Swing me for I save my life to me
You can tell they're someone in me
Swing me for I save my life to me
You can tell that's all you can be
'Cause I've been walking 'round for a week
[Bridge]
And I was afraid you wouldn't like it
I was afraid that it would be bad
So I tucked it away inside my backpack
I'll wait patient for my hand
I asked a man what do I look like?
He said "I can't remember well"
He said my chin protruded inwards
He said my hair was long as hell
[Chorus]
Swing me for I save my life to me
You can tell I'm nothing to me
Swing me for I save my life to me
Wish that I had places to be
'Cause I've been walking 'round for a week
[Outro]
I was afraid you wouldn't like it
I was afraid that it would be bad
And I was afraid you wouldn't like it
I was afraid that it would be bad
