kendrick lamar - friends lyrics

[verse 1]
this b+tch tried to tell me my woman not black
because she light skinned with her head down her back, uh
now, growing up, none of us n+ggas cared about that, uh
we all off the top ramen
we all in apartments looking at martin on broke recliners
when does she know?
i say, “what’s your feelings on that?”, she say, “f+ck them hoes”
she say it’s sad to see black women act different to other black women
clashing and color ad+libbing to f+ck over each other
when half of our mother’s conditions did the dirty work for us
“so what’s the dirty work?”, she said, “n+gga, we insecure
from a black man insecurity
lack of perception, lack of maturity
manipulation for s+x only reason for you and me
we tolerate this
your perception of bad b+tches make us hate the next b+tch
so i ain’t mad when they be mad, speaking on me
take a jab, because i got heart and i look the part with a lookin’ ass”
i understand it’s deeper than colorism
i said, “what about the ones that pray?”, she said, “f+ck them b+tches”
“they be praying on your downfall, wannabe feminists, turn into serpents around y’all”
maybe i’m sensitive, maybe observant, maybe i’m flawed, maybe been through too much
living life in the ghetto as a woman kept me in cuffs
cause the light+skins get picked on, the dark+skins don’t get picked
whoever choose sides need to die so we can exist
[chorus]
friends, how many of us have them?
friends, ones that we can depend on?
lets be
friends, how many of us have them?
friends, ones that we can depend on?

[verse 2]
i seen the liars, i seen the opportunists, i seen the tired
i seen my own flesh and blood try to sue me
i seen it coming, this day made desires
i give and give ’till i can’t give no more
then forget to forgive once i don’t feel no more
who took advantage of you?
how foul do you gotta play to get the w?
they’ll smile in your mother’s face, then try and hustle you
wish i can make this all up, i cannot share enough of me
it was them versus us (us), had to swap out my company
(no more, you f+ck with me)
maybe i’m too sensitive, to ever live would be trill
especially when my intentions is to set sail
the family fortune further would go, but that’s a fantasy
i’m fortunate, ’cause now i know

[chorus]
friends, how many of us have them?
friends, ones that we can depend on?
let’s be
friends, how many of us have them?
friends, ones that we can depend on?
