Best Friend

[Hook]

Tell me what's been happening, what's been on your mind
Lately you've been searching for a darker place
To hide, that's alright

But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us
I refuse to lose another friend to drugs
Just come home, don't let go

[Verse 1]

His name is Alphonse Corrie, he is a close friend
Has an interest in music he swears will never end
But on the side, he would always hang out in the snow
With his girl named Pearl, with candy up his nose
When he did it, his heart rate would always elevate
He'd get so high, he swore he would reach Heaven's gates
But I guess that fits his little Jehovah's Witness criteria
Talking about the lord on all his social media

But he doesn't know that every snort has a price to pay
He's not aware that soon his cartilage will rot away
Or perhaps he does, maybe he just doesn't care
It may not just be big flakes that he's snorting up there
Every mound could be a lethal dose, maybe he doesn't know
How easy is it to go ahead and die from an overdose
But he still snorts to this day just for a free thrill
If the addiction doesn't kill him, the possible heart attacks will!

[Hook]

[Verse 2]

Just like me, he's got some big rapper dreams
But he won't survive to see 'em with ulcers and gangrene!
I don't even know if he realises that he's trapped!
I'd hate to see him on the day that he finally snaps
Losing his temper, spiralling down into a rage
Losing his mind, maybe his life at a young age!
He may talk about how much God gives him such power
But he's turning into a puppet under Lucifer's powder!

And I fear that one day his mind will somehow break
He doesn't know he's dying with every snort he takes!
Who knows if he's done Pearl's friends and enemies
And mixed them up like some illegal chemistry!
Death could hang over his head like a voodoo curse!
He has enough problems, every sniff makes them worse!
But he still snorts to this day to avoid being chill
If the addiction doesn't kill him, the heart failure will!

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

I really want to help him like a friend should
'Cause I know he's in pain, even when he says he's good
It could be just as dangerous as Heroine or LSD
I wanna give him a right hook to bring him to reality!
He's close to me, like a brother from a different mother
I already lost one best friend, I refuse to lose another!
I'd do anything just so that he can see the truth
To show I care 'bout him, I'd fucking cry in this booth!

Now he might listen to this song and think that I'm bluffing
But I'd be a terrible friend if I sat here and did nothing!
I don't want to see him spending 7 or more years jail time
Or live his life under a possible unlimited fine
If he keeps his habit up, helping hands he disregards
He'll have a big rush, before he crashes and burns hard!
I know the stash won't be forever making him strong
So I just hope I can get through to him with this song!
