You were there from the start/ 
taught me to be aware of the sharks & prepare for the dark/ 
you kept a secret you practiced what you were preaching against/ 
your inner demons were praying I would tear apart/
you won't admit but [bad word] just a little a bit/ 
I could tell cause you'd be heated over little sh*t/ 
telling me to quit trying & get real/ 
I got a little shine you was like big deal/ 
I was pursuing dreams, steady doin my thing/ 
you wasn't doing the same you wasn't doing a thing/ 
from my [bad word] to a [bad word] to a judas/ 
to who knew that this would happen/ 
but the fraction was brewing it seems/ 
I should have seen, mistaking smoke for a little steam/ 
it turned to fire you burned me hoping [bad word] me/
I won't even mention your name in the bars, it's too close to the scars/ 
but I'm sure n*gga you know who you are/ 

 [bad word] 
 You Know Who You Are 

 You were there from the start/ 
you told me what ever I'm doing to do it from the heart/ 
I was pursuing a dream that was cloaked in the cloth of the uncertain/ 
making money music & art and it wasn't perfect/ 
you told me what ever's worth it is worth hurting/
double edge seemingly sharp, rather unnerving/ 
but still, you believed in a brother/ 
I was starving as an artist, you was feeding a brother/ 
you could see in a brother what I couldn't see myself/ 
when couldn't see myself needing help/ 
one reason or another I was trying to do it all/
there's allot of ways to fail but that's the fastest to the fall/ 
but through it and after all you was with me not against/ 
you cheered me from the bench/ 
and now you're with me as I ball/ 
and that meant, I ain't got to mention your name in bars/ 
you know you're close to my heart/ 
so I'm sure that/ 

 [bad word] 

 You were there from the start/ 
before you were even aware of a plan you part/ 
of the scheme, grand as it could seem at the top/
man can only go so high before you reached where we can't breath/ 
but you know your limitations you walk patient/
while everybody starts [bad word] for their plan B/
like a fire escape, but you stay in the kitchen/
let them sleep on their dreams, you just lying awake/ 
you stay eyeing the cake, they getting greedy/ 
and then they turn their side against you like their getting sleepy/ 
try to prevent you cause you ain't too what they bout/ 
get in your mental convince you to take the way out/ 
please, let them try, let the me fail/ 
let them tell lies on you let them be/ 
let them see you prevail/ 
let them bail on their attempt to stunt a star/ 
in any event be sure that you know who you are/
