Lyrics
Goodfriends
written by Wesley Lamar Johnson BKA Wes Cleveland
1st verse
Girl I'm sending all my love to you
thats what a real friend would do
thats what a real man will do
be there for you through and through
through the good times and bad times sit and stand with you
if when sick send you flowers hoping that you make it to
see another day through the clouds, girl make it through
cause we don't know the day when the lord is taking you or me,
so friend to friend we should live in harmony,
boned out
need a helping a hand take a loan out,
put it back in, where God's the only one we owe now,
landlord acting up about to get thrown out out
come and stay with me so we can go and knock the doors out
need a solid foundation, seeing that your floors out
let me go ahead and school you, put you into moorehouse house
yep! put you into my house
spread your wings of love unlock the cage and let you fly out
hook:
Going to be there for you girl, allways trust these words that I say, I say
Going to be there for you girl, that's allways, allways
Going to be there for you girl, through thick and thin (all the time time time time)
Going to there for you girl, cause your my goodfriend, goodfriend
2nd verse
Homie,
I got your back, you know me,
by your side when it's time to ride, no fony,
snitch on your chick, if the chick, tries to bone me,
if the chick, twitch when I snitch, you know shes not your roni,
cant stand chicks that try to act like your the only,
person there in they life all times she has to show me
if not live lonely,
cant let no chick, come in between, me and my homie,
your my dog for real,
forget a cheap thrill,
secured in my man hood, to tell you how I feel,
contract by our words, won't sale out on the deal,
so if you're thinking that I will,
then that's the thought you need to kill,
my balls is my word, that word has been sealed,
might cause some stains, cause I'm not stainless, but I'm steel,
just us two, spots get hot, cause we steal,
get caught never, cause we're clever on the drill, yeah
hook:
Going to be there for you homie, allways trust these words that I say, I say
Going to be there for you homie, thats allways, allways
Going to be there for homie, through thick and thn, (all the time time time time)
going to the for you homie, cause your my goodfriend, goodfriend
3rd verse
100%, it was never 50/50
moms you were there to heal my wound that day when that dog bit me,
dad you found me and Rob 3rd grade,when we played hookie,
still remember how both of yall looked at me, with my first hickie,
but I'm a give it all to you both,
even though my words are not all that I quote,
both smile cause your proud of me, and know I don't joke,
cause if I speak it, then I spoke it, I believe in what I hope,
just want yall to know, jought it down and take some notes,
so when it happens with this rapping, you can look at what you wrote,
it's time to be humble, no need for me to boast,
but if I do, it'll be in him he gave two friends that I can show, yeah
two friends who learned to cope,
with a kid who acted grown enough to show them some ropes,
whats now for us to hold, the love that we share, what we share is gold
hook:
Going to be there for you fam, allways trust these words that I say, I say
Going to be there for you fam, thats allways, allways
Going to be there for you fam, through thick and thin (all the time time time time)
Going to be there for you fam, cause your my goodfriends, goodfriends
Going to be there for you all, allways trust these words that I say, I say
Going to be there for you all, thats allways, allways
