Damian Marley - Friends lyrics

rate me

[Sampled Vocal Intro]

[Chorus 1 - Sample]

[Verse 1 - JR. Gong]

These later days in Babylon

As I watch your children grow

And the years them carry on

And I miss you even more

Still I send them go to school

And tell them

What dem fi know

All of mi friend dem mi salute

Daddi gon and Lenny Screw

Another year has come and past

Man a drop like morning dew

Uncle Warrick sick and gone

When him couldn't catch a flew

Picka T you a mi don

Respect long and overdue

When nothing never did a gwan

You still have on somethin' new

Our friendship ever last

All when one minus from few

Yes we surely had a blast

We're like family Me and you

A nuh every path you cross

Lead to somebody whe true

Of the many that are called

Only chosen is a few

[Chorus 2 - JR. Gong]

Of the real friends that serve you long

Your memories might fade

Your real friends will serve you long

Sunshine or rain

Your real friends will serve you long

Acquaintances will fade

Your real friends wont do you wrong

Real friend don't change

[Verse 2 - Nas]

Only talking with winners

A loser or two

Got my number

Still they think they real

But they just really awfully bitter

Salty niggaz Hate the smarter ones

These are the doubters

Who's our 'bout my run

I barely made it out the slums

My value high Cause I do more than

Rap about a gun

I made money for niggaz

Ya'll never looking out for none

I helped millionaires get to that very position

Some real millionaires see that's ill

Cause look at statistics

Real millionaires

And I ain't talking ghetto riches

Thorough business

You mistreating niggaz

Heard your folks bleed in prison

You ain't a G

And if you was

I don't recall

Who would roll with ya'll

Bunch a fucking know it alls

Who's dough is small

Look what's it come to

Our rapport's good no more

We was good before

Till I saw what type a dude you took me for

We had a chance to take paper down

What I took was more

Because of hatred

Opportunity wasted

[Chorus 3 - JR. Gong]

Your real friends will serve you long

Your car and clothes will fade

Your real friend wont do you wrong

Real friend don't change Eh

[Verse 3 - JR. Gong]

Your real friend won't run in war

Nuh care what the cost is

You real friends are in for all the wins and the losses

Fi Real!

No question at all

Them ready fi rise the tallest

Take to the enemies

All for one

And one for all this

Real friend will hear you out

No secret feelings

Real friends won't sell you out

No bargain pleading

For real!

Always looking out

A meal!

When outside a drought

Your real!

Friend won't hide you out

No

[Chorus 4 - JR. Gong]

Your real friends will serve you long

When all else fails

Your real friend wont do you wrong

Real friend don't change

[Verse 4 - Nas]

May laughter

From backstabbers

Turn to tears faster

I wish for you

No snake shall slither past ya

You have to

Keep your vision clear

Cause only a coward lives in fear

My surroundings

Got only real powerful niggaz here

Real men we have a code of ethics

No question

No jealousies

No feminine tendencies

We expecting

No gossip

No phony logic

No counting your homey pocket

Spare no expense for legal defense

If your homey locked up

No keeping tabs

On who was the last who looked out

Selfishness

That's a character flaw

No holding out

Yo what happened to the honor?

You're dealing with

Sensitive Pre-Madonna drama

Teflon love

For my dudes who solid

[Chorus 5 - JR. Gong]

Your real friends will serve you long

Your memories might fade

Your real friends will serve you long

Sunshine or rain, eh

Your real friends will serve you long, woe ya woe

When all else fails

Your real friends wont do you wrong

Real friend don't change

[Bridge - JR. Gong]

Now plentiful

Or scantily

My cup be full

Or emptily

With arm in arms

We'll all trod on

Through destiny

A friend that's true

Is there for me

Respect is due

They care for me

Should I be down

Or even out

They're next to me

Hey

[Chorus Out - JR. Gong]

Your real friends will serve you long

Your memories might fade

Your real friends will serve you long

Sunshine or rain, hey

Your real friends will serve you long, woe ya woe

When all else fails

Real friends won't do you wrong

Real friend don't change

Real friend don't change

Real friend don't change

Real friend don't change
