Friend
Deep Lyrics

Your friends in the Malibu hills
The people you associate with are wealthy and powerful individuals who reside in Malibu.

Big names, big money, big thrills
Your friends are known celebrities, wealthy and influential personalities, and live for excitement and entertainment.

Your friends - not mine
You don't share a mutual relationship with these people and want to stay away from them.

Nice place, bet ya like to party
You presume that your friends are fond of late-night social gatherings in Malibu.

No? Well lemme throw a house show (Basement)
In case your friends aren't hosting any parties, you're suggesting organizing your own event in the basement of the house.

Good neighbors live far away, go home
You urge people attending the party to leave as it's not a safe locality.

Stay away from windows (Case it)
As a precautionary measure, you advise keeping a distance from windows and other entry points.

Face it
Accept the fact that your life isn't ideal and needs improvement.

Bet ya can't wait
You're confident that the listener is eagerly awaiting a turn towards a prosperous and exciting lifestyle.

Blood's not real 'cause you're fake, fake, fake
The familial or friendly ties that you share are superficial, and there's no love or support that's genuine.

You know anything you want you gotta take, take, take
To achieve anything you desire in life, you must fight for it relentlessly.

'Cause it don't feel real then it ain't, ain't, ain't
If the experiences and emotions you encounter don't feel authentic, then it's not worth pursuing.

Think fast
React promptly and efficiently to sudden situations or crises.

Put the money in the bag
A common demand made by robbers or thieves while robbing a store, bank, or individual.

Where I'm from they don't play for ransom
In your city or neighborhood, abducting an individual in demand for a ransom is unheard of.

Your friends better get this function kickin' and quickly
You expect your friends to ignite the party and create an enjoyable ambiance.

Or your friends'll never know what Hit 'em
If your friends fail to create a memorable and fun event, they won't realize the potential loss of valuable relationships.

But you can't win
You can't guarantee a victory in all situations, particularly the ones that involve risky and unethical behavior.

Fake shit
Phony actions, people, or behaviors that don't stand true to their words or promises.

You know anything in life you gotta take, take, take
To progress and achieve one's goals, one must take risks and hustle relentlessly.

Your friends in the Malibu hills
The song concludes with the repetition of the opening line, reiterating that your friends reside in Malibu and are a different class of people than yourself.
