Frenemy Lyrics by Mesus

24/7

2019

[Intro]
Friend or foe, frenemy
If I die today, wonder who'd know I'm gone
If I die, today, wonder who share this song
If I die, today, wonder who'd even care
If I die, today, I just might, man, I swear

[Verse 1]
I swear people will fight you, while you fight to save 'em
I swear, people will stab you with a knife you gave 'em
I swear, people will kick you while you down, then while you on the ground
They steal every single penny, from cups ya shakin'

[Verse 2]
This world done got so cold, maybe it's just Chicago
Seem like people got no soul, man, how we get so hollow?
It seem like all people do, nowadays, is gossip
Seem like people are everything, nowadays, but honest

[Verse 3]
And honestly, I'm tired of tryna be somethin', I'd never be
And what I mean by that, is loved by everyone, with no enemies
'Cause, the truth is, once you make a choice, to stand behind ya' voice
You make a choice to fight against any flag, anywhere
Anytime, any color, other than the one you hoist up

[Pre-Chorus]
Love me or hate me, really, it's up to you
Only thing I ask, is that you pick one of the two
Real talk, rather have one loyal friend
Than a thousand fake ones, that's just gon' flake out at the end
Frenemy

[Chorus]
Friend or foe
Just lettin' ya know!
'Cause, I ain't playin' games with jokers, anymo', hah
Friend or foe
Baby, straight up
Just play the hand we dealt
This time, let's play 'em face up

[Verse 4]
I dedicate this song to all my frenemies
Smilin' in my my face, while they pretend to be
Somethin' that they not, somethin' they'll never be
'Cause, they ain't show no love, they got no heart
Therefore, they dead to me
This song for everyone who said they had my back, to my face
But when I turned around, I heard the words you said behind my back
And when I trace back

[Verse 5]
Lookin' at the years, over beers, it appeared that you was down
Truth of the matter, you ain't never had my back
And everytime that I smiled, it made you fra, fra, frown

[Verse 6]
Try to get me paneled, try to gimme debt
Fall back, I see right through you
And you can keep ya' lies, you can keep yo' opinions
I don't care what it seem like to you

[Verse 7]
And you can keep your money
You can keep all ya' contents of contracts, all I am to you
I'll do it on my own, 'fore I take another loan
From another greedy dude, in a business suit

[Verse 8]
Livin' in my car, while you livin' cool
Swimmin' in debt, you swimmin' in a pool
But you on't give a thought, nah, you think we're cool
Guess it's what I get, for doin' business with a fool

[Verse 9]
Truth is, man, you get what you ask for
I ain't tryna live in the past, though
Past that, just me and my backpack
Walkin' all alone, don't know where we goin', but I know

[Pre-Chorus]
Love me or hate me, really, it's up to you
Only thing I ask, is that you pick one of the two
Real talk, rather have one loyal friend
Than a thousand fake ones, that's just gon' flake out at the end
Frenemy

[Chorus]
Friend or foe!
Just lettin' ya know!
'Cause, I ain't playin' games with jokers anymo', hah
Friend or foe
Baby, straight up
Just play the hand we dealt
This time, let's play 'em face up
