How many of us have them (friends)

By Alana Davis, Josh Deutsch, Lawrence Smith, and Jalil Hutchins

Friends is a word we use every day but most of the time we use it in the wrong way
Some people say that they got your back but you can tell a true friend by the way they act
And if you ask me know I can't be much help 'cause a friend's somebody you judge for yourself
Doesn't matter what I think I see because a friend to you might not be a friend to me
Some are mellow and they act cool others treat you like you're a fool
Some are always on your side and others just want to take you for a ride
And this list goes on again and again but these are the people that we call friends

Friends-how many of us have them
Friends-ones we can depend on
Friends-how many of us have them
Friends-before we go any further let's be friends

When we first hooked up we barely knew each other I never thought you would be my lover
Talking on the phone for hours at a time or I was at your house or you were at mine
And then came all the fights and all the problems turned out that was all we had in common
And even though we started out strong I guess we went about the whole thing wrong
And I should've known it would come to an end 'cause we became lovers before we were friends

The list goes on and on
Again and again and again and again
True friends show you more than you can see
But some people leave you on your knees
With friends like that you don't need enemies
