A friend

I lost a friend today, they were better, dare I say a go getter

Always the centre, of attention, full of affection, no aggression

Making connections, offering protection

Easing tension, helped with my depression, always down to clown

Or a venting session.

I owe them my life, if only he didn't have a knife

He could've survived. It was just a dare, life isn't fair anywhere

Nobody cared, now I feel bare, I just wanna tear out my hair

Or escape somewhere

To my friend, I'm sorry, I worry I might meet my end, tryna defend

What you represent. You're a fucking dumbass

Grass bastard, you shattered your future, fucking loser

It was that damn shooter, if only I got there sooner,

I thought it was just a rumour, I'm sorry, we shouldn't have taken that molly

Probably could've saved me the time it took to climb the fence,

To come to your defence, I have so many regrets, I've lost my sense

Of self, I'm alone sitting on the shelf, on my own by myself

I miss you buddy, it's a tragedy that changed my mentality

We were just two junkie flunkies, smart as fucking monkeys

I just wiah I could give you a good squeeze, please, don't leave

Regret is a disease, the pain'll never ease

I'm so sorry my friend, sorry you had to meet your end

But you won't be forgotten, I'll be talkin' 'bout you

All the way to Compton, to the few that'll listen

That's my decision, and I'll honour it to the end, for you

My friend
