This song was written in final year of High School in 2017. I faced with a number of problems concerning friends. These events opened my eyes and I started to see the real from fake. The song was also a submission to Mr Eazi’s Empawa Africa competition. My mama told me, “when you’re up; your friends...
[Intro]
“Ticky gotta get ‘em, Ahh!!
[Verse]
I can't log into Facebook
Cause I’m sick and tired of answering apologies
And acting like I hate you
And disturbing all the sanity
Back then I was considered a loud mouth, about that
Praising every nigga who do stunts to earn clout
Damn! Would relation stay the same?
These niggas bound to change if they keep on switching lanes
Now look; Hypocrisy levels have risen
I told ‘em tell me the truth cause it can never be hidden
A lot of my friends in inverted commas had told me that they were sorry
Now waiting to be forgiven
Man, it's high time you learned a lesson, yeah!
And compensate for the aggression
And before you can pick a friend, study ‘em from the source
Instead of getting drunk and telling people you befriended a Trojan Horse
The hate been going higher, much higher than a crescendo
Playing on that piano, I'm working to get it double
I guess the ending is greater than I expected
I’m destined to be the greatest if truly I stay humble
But, being humble's a trait, Y'all have taken the bait
Look how I'm serving a fool, was one hell of a wait
But with the lack of respect, you'll accept what you get
The least of what you expect, cause you reject and neglect
[Hook]
I wonder why nobody can believe me
When I told ‘em that the struggle wasn't easy
First you please me
Then you deceive me
I wanna know
Is you a friend or foe?
[Outro]
So, I wrote this song back in 2017
I was going through some things and then…
I also actually performed it for the Empawa Africa Competition
Shout out Mr Eazi
My mama told me, “when you're up; your friends will know you, but when you're down; you will know your friends”
So, choose wisely…
Choose wisely chose
