Ill Mind 6: Old Friend

I remember the first time you overdosed
A fucking overload on meth, paramedics saved your ass
You was close to ghost
You never did know which road to go
It's like you rode the boat and sailed away
And hoped to hit the Golden Coast
But you sank like the Titanic, the incident left your life damaged
And that's when I panicked, you thought you had it locked
Well you ain't on the right planet
If you ain't tryna' live your life right, plan it
It's like your mind vanished, you don't even know that
I wish that we could go back,
Cause' it's so sad when I tell jokes and you don't laugh like you used to
I really hate to stress it, but you strange to mess with
So I keep my distance, cause' you always got this blank expression
Like you're confused and unaware of your surroundings
Emotions have gone and no one's found it

It's overwhelming, your momma told you that drugs are bad
But you ain't listen til' the fire burned your ass, now you understand

Like you always look like you don't know me

And I'm mad at the world cause' the meth took away my homie

Give me back my homie, please come home
I just wanna chill on the nieghborhood block like we used to (Where'd you go)

Never woulda thought my best friend would be gone in the future

But I was wrong

I shoulda' stopped you when I had the chance to do so
But back then I had felt like that was too bold
You started hanging with new folks
And made the drug environment your new home
This world is too cold
Could I have prevented this? Who knows?
They convinced you that this shit was cool and hip to do
Saying it would lift your mood and make you feel invincible
So you started skipping school, hanging with these wicked dudes

Unaware that when you got older you played a bigger fool
And it's pitiful, where the fuck they at now,
In they mid-20s passed out inside of a crack house
Back when you met them I had doubts

They put you on the bad route
And when you needed they help to pick you up they fuckin' backed out

They fucking got you, I can't lie, but now your brains fried
And you don't even act like you're the same guy

Your momma told you that drugs are bad,
But you ain't listen til' the fire burned your ass, now you understand

Like you always look like you don't know me
And I'm mad at the world cause' the meth took away my homie

Give me back my homie, please come home

I just wanna chill on the block like we used to (Where'd you go)
Never woulda thought my best friend would be gone in the future
But I was wrong

I ain't never felt this shit before it gets me sore
I reminisce on us playin' Nintendo 64
And that Christmas in 97 we got new crispy boards
And we was doin ollies in my kitchen on the slippery floor
Shit changed and it happened quick
But I can't forget that you was the first homie I started rappin' with
You coulda' had half of this back when I had established it
But now I have to sit and feel bad, look what your actions did
Man you were so outgoing and so hysterical
Seeing you now is just unbearable, it's terrible

You shoulda made your choices wisely
Fucking with poison ivy,
Without your brain please tell me what would your point in life be?
It's a struggle to get your ass to listen

You really hurt me and the rest of your family
With all your bad decisions
We always told you that drugs are bad,
But you ain't listen til the fire burned your ass, now you understand

Like you always look like you don't know me
And I'm mad at the world cause' the meth took away my homie
Give me back my homie, please come home
I just wanna chill on the block like we used to (Where'd you go)
Never woulda thought my best friend would be gone in the future
But I was wrong

Excuse me do ya need a ride? Looks like you're going downtown
Yes, hop in my ride, well hi, I'm Chris Dolmeth
I'm your best friend (Chris Dolmeth)
I'm all you need (Chris Dolmeth)
If you wanna succeed, hop in my ride
Well hi, I'm Chris Dolmeth
