Lyrics of Old Friend by Hopsin
I remember the first time you overdosed
A fuckin′ overload on meth
The paramedics saved yo' ass
You was close to ghost
You never did know which road to go
It′s like you rowed the boat and sailed away and hoped to hit the golden coast
But you sank like the Titanic
The incident had 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 tryna live your life right, plan it
It′s like your mind vanished
You ′on'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're strange to mess with
So I keep my distance ′cause you always got this blank expression
Like you, confused and unaware of your surroundings
Emotions I've gone, and no one's found it
It′s overwhelming
Your mama told you that drugs are bad
But you ain′t listen 'til the fire burned yo′ ass, now you understand
But you always look like you don't know me
And I′m mad at the world 'cause the meth took away my homie
Gimme back my homie (please come home)
I just wanna chill on the neighborhood block like we used to (like we used to)
Where′d you go?
I never would've thought my best friend would be gone in the future (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 the shit was cool, and it's the hip to do
Saying it would lift your mood and make you feel invincible
So you started skippin′ school, hangin′ with these wicked dudes
Unaware that when you got older you played the bigger fool
And it's pitiful, where the fuck they at now
In their mid 20′s, passed out inside of a crack house
Back when you met 'em, I had doubts
They put you on a bad route
And when you needed, they help to pick you up, they fuckin′ backed out
They fuckin' got you, I can′t lie
But now you're brains fried
You don't even act like you, the same guy
Your mama told you that drugs are bad
But you ain′t listen ′til the fire burned yo' ass, now you understand
But you always look like you don′t know me
And I'm mad at the world ′cause the meth took away my homie
Gimme back my homie (please come home)
I just wanna chill on the neighborhood block like we used to (like we used to)
Where'd you go?
I never would′ve thought my best friend would be gone in the future (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′ Ollie's in my kitchen on the slippy floors
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 at what yo′ actions did
But you were so outgoing, and so hysterical
Seein' you now is just unbearable, it′s terrible
You shoulda made yo' choices wisely
Fuckin' with Poison Ivy
Without yo′ brain, please tell me, what would your point in life be
It′s a struggle to get yo' 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 yo′ ass, now you understand
But you always look like you don't know me
And I′m mad at the world 'cause the meth took away my homie
Gimme back my homie (please come home)
I just wanna chill on the neighborhood block like we used to (like we used to)
Where'd you go?
I never would′ve thought my best friend would be gone in the future (future)
(But I was wrong)
Excuse me, do you need a ride?
Looks like you′re going downtown, yes (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Hop in my ride
Well hi, I'm Crystal Meth
I′m your best friend (Crystal Meth)
I'm all you need (Crystal Meth)
If you wanna succeed, hop in my ride
Well hi, I′m Crystal Meth
