Best Friends Become Strangers
Mykill Miers Lyrics

Yo, some people change like the season change
People change their attitudes as frequently as seasons change

you can be type o' brothers to do different thangs
Despite being close, people can choose to pursue different paths in life

then they want to question always sweatin' you
They question and suspect you even when you're innocent

they sayin' you actin' funny and they pest from you
They accuse you of acting suspicious and keep bothering you

they testin' you like you ain't be true
They test and doubt your loyalty

but the lessons by they else tellin' when I do
Their actions reveal their true motives and intentions

so my question to you, you my homie from jump street
The singer asks if the person is still their friend, like they were from the beginning

cause soon as tump speak you down to rush me
As soon as someone speaks negatively about the artist, the person rushes to believe it

so must react like we enemies
The person reacts as if they are enemies

are you a friend of me, droppin of negative energy
The person claims to be a friend but keeps spewing negative energy

you pretend to be friends with me
The person pretends to be friends with the singer

but eventually the truth come and the in you see
The truth about the person's intentions will eventually come to light

you potentially play the double agent goin' back and forth
The person is a potential double agent and plays both sides

is a whole lot of trouble ain't it ?
It's a whole lot of trouble to deal with

so now we gain beats and we don't speak
The singer and the person have become distant

you blame your punk-ass homies when the rumours leak
The person blames their friends when rumors about the artist surface

Yo, we worked from homies to haters, from friends to foes
They went from being close friends to enemies

You got the wrong (?) from niggas you know
The person listened to the wrong people and made false assumptions about the singer

But on the low, I know your heart's filled with anger
The singer knows that the person is harboring anger towards them

So how did we go from best friends to strangers?
The artist questions how their close friendship turned into being strangers

Are you a friend or foe?
The artist questions if the person is truly their friend or an enemy

you acting like a bitch-nigga though
The person is acting cowardly and disloyal

And I can't figure your attitude
The singer cannot comprehend the person's attitude towards them

I ain't mad at you
The artist is not angry with the person

you don't know your mommy 's asked for you
The singer wonders if the person is aware of their mother asking about them

what happened to me and you bein' down
The singer ponders what caused the rift in their friendship

when you was clown
When the person was acting foolish

she known that we was peep
Their mutual acquaintance knew that they were friends

we would never gotten to it
They would never have had a falling out if it weren't for the person's actions

let your homie talk better 'bout me man you blew it
The person allowed their friend to speak poorly about the singer which caused the rift in their friendship

this thangs you do is the same thing that hoes do
The person's actions are reminiscent of those of a disloyal person

get mad at minor things when they exposed to
The person becomes angry at trivial things when they are made aware of them

this is what I'm gon' do
The artist explains what their next action will be

I'm about the shakers
The artist is focused on making moves and progressing

I ain't got time for a homie that's flate
The singer doesn't have time for a fake friend

cause a homie that's a fake is a homie that's a snake
A fake friend is also like a snake, they cannot be trusted

you best to back out my face and give me some space
The person should stay away from the singer and give them space

this type of rap race you gotta get the keys
In the music industry, one needs to have connections and opportunities to succeed

you better get on your camp partner before they squeeze
The person needs to be aware of potential threats from within their own circle

the homie that's a enemie is a bad predictment
A friend turned enemy is a dangerous situation

so make sure you buck your fake homies you can't live with
One should get rid of fake friends they cannot trust

Some times I wake up and think about the people who hate it
The singer thinks about those who hate them when they wake up sometimes

I see things in low clippin' now that I've made it to 25
The singer has gained wisdom and insight as they've gotten older

You out there you tellin' lies
The person is out there spreading lies about the artist

actin' like my true homie but you wear the skies
The person pretends to be a true friend but they have a hidden agenda

got a whole lot to say when my back is turned
The person talks behind the artist's back

but when we face face try to act concerned
When face to face, the person acts as if they care

you asking me thangs tight when your eye will drop
The person asks questions but their body language shows their true feelings

knowing damn well that you cats tryin' to plot
The person knows that others are plotting against the singer

you don't care about my whereabouts
The person doesn't care about the singer's well-being

just run your mouth
The person just talks without thinking

knowing that you thinking about ways to take me out
The person is thinking of ways to harm the artist

so if you hate me, then just hate me
The artist would rather the person be honest about their feelings towards them

but don't try to play me for a fool and try to thank me
The person shouldn't try to deceive the singer and pretend to be thankful

maybe if you was man enough then you would let me know
The singer wishes the person had the courage to be honest with them

instead of lettin everybody know on the low
The person gossips about the artist behind their back

See most of y'all is two-faced
Most people are two-faced and can't be trusted

That's why I walk around with a damn screw face
The artist is cautious and guarded around others due to their distrust of them
