They said I could trust them, I cannot
Caught them in the act, busted them, I cannot
They set it off, similar to a cannon
They crept up, stabbed me in the back, karambit

My mama always said to me “be careful of who you trust”
The need ya when you’re sharp, when you’re dull, you get crushed
I did not think that what she said was true
But when I was on the brink, I went “friends, where are you?”
I realized how blind was I was, how I acted surprised
It impacted my pride, it impacted my mind, impacted my life
…
Now I know who’s the real friends (Jayden and Mykel.)

Six years old, saw my dad cold, I couldn't stand it
Empty bottle on the floor, as if he planned it
Painted white on his lips like the devil hand-picked it
Turn seven, he was screamin' at my mom to get out
Hit the bottle till his vitals went to zero, head out
Bleedin' from the eyes, pushin' past a point-four-oh
Sirens spinnin' in the yard, it was a fuckin' horror show
Chokin' on his drugs, his face was covered in cyanosis
Left a little kid to deal with his psychosis
ADHD and SPD is a brain in hyper-arousal
Static in my ears, flashin' the lights on my house wall
A million fuckin' thoughts racin' but I couldn't even track 'em
My sensors overload, the details, I couldn't map 'em
In my own fog, none of this shit was hittin' me
Woke up the next day, finally felt the gravity blitz me (welcome to adulthood kid)

They left me to bleed, I wasn’t their need, just temporary, guaranteed
They said I need to get some sleep, well I have a special treat, very sweet
One girl bites Avery, her mouth dirty
She isn’t worthy being my friend, not worth the journey
It hurts, trust me, to be betrayed, no matter the great effort
Seems like the love being fake, a secret network
Now I’m not milking the story, I’m not that naughty
Now I strongly believe what my mom and dad taught me.
