F.L.Y (an abbreviation for “Friends Like You”) is the fourth single to be released from R3DD L’s Break The World album, featuring Daniac.
The song itself talks about having to deal with people who call themselves “friends” who are only there to benefit themselves, which both R3DD L and Daniac class...
[Chorus: R3DD L]
I don't need friends like you around me
I don't need friends like you around me
[Verse 1: R3DD L]
So many people have tested me over time
You say you didn't, homie, tell 'em that you're fucking lying
Why you got to do me like this? Shit ain't right
I don't want to fucking die, bitch, shit, I might
Take your head, make you see the light
Don't want to kill you, look in the mirror, you'll see
What it is that I want to achieve, why?
I just want to show you why I write
The shit that I write and, always put up a fight
It's 'cause of fake friends like you who always got to lie
Make me want to crack a bottle and just drink until I die
I need to cut you off, mother fucker, say goodbye
Yeah, mother fucker, say goodbye
Yeah, mother fucker, say goodbye
[Chorus: R3DD L & New World Dis Order]
I don't need friends like you around me
(I don't need friends like you around me)
I don't need friends like you around me
[Verse 2: Daniac]
Look at the place I’m in I’ve been afraid to make friends
Back in high school was fake friends
And it made sense, I was getting really mad up at the world
And getting envious I was a nuisance
I was bruised since and reduced into a shell of me
I was chemically ruined and filled with jealousy
Pleasure be something that I missed out feeling mentally
Dreadfully too much self-pity steadily found the recipe
What’s that? I’m a baseball giant
Flying putting my passion into the grinding
Now I’m at a place where I gained respect
So, face the fact you come at me you may get decked
Now all my goals reflect on how to reach the
Pinnacle of everything and never will I ease up
Anybody bully me, you bet I’m going to speak up
I don’t need fake friends, know what it leads to
[Chorus: R3DD L]
I don't need friends like you around me
I don't need friends like you around me
[Bridge: R3DD L]
Too many times
I've been stabbed in the back by mother fuckers
Too many times
I've been let down by mother fuckers
I don't need friends like you
[Chorus: R3DD L]
I don't need friends like you around me
I don't need friends like you around me
I don't need friends like you around me
I don't need friends like you around me

Everyone deals with these kinds of “friends” on a daily basis. I’ve done it for years. You start at the bottom and all they can do is talk about you. You release a song like this and they hit you up, because they know it’s about them and all I can do is sit there like, “where’s the lie?”
I don’t wa...
