Ain't never been much of the church type

but I believe in the last days

I walk through hell almost every night

but I believe it's a pathway

Say boy what you doing with your life

with those tattoos on your face

Say boy you know that you'll pay the price well

I guess I'll see when I head that way

To the father son

and holy spirit I hold you nearest

My best friend

Let the trumpets blow with your appearance

I can almost hear it

My best friend

When you wish me hell upon my soul

and spirit behold these lyrics

I got a best friend friend

I got a best friend friend

I don't know much about holy bibles

but I grew up in the bible belt

I put my love for a woman on idle

because I got beat with my momma's belt

But I learned from my mistakes

Try hard to respect people for what they believing in

But if you spit on my grave

and wish me hell

then I wish you well

I'ma send you straight up to my best friend

To the father son and holy spirit

I hold you nearest

My best friend

Let the trumpets blow with your appearance

I can almost hear it

My best friend

When you wish me hell upon my soul

and spirit behold these lyrics

I got a best friend friend

I got a best friend friend yeah

God please could you arm me with the armor

to calm me when there's drama like Gandhi

Could've gone the other way many times

Could've turned Dalai with the Lama

but I squashed my beefs and things seem to be looking decent recently

but don't jinx it

It's like Clint Eastwood looking for peace

though maybe not finna

Enta the priesthood but at least

should make an attempt to show some remorse

and to be some sorta repenter for the people

I've been a minister not a preacher

but a starter and finisher

Enter the mind of a thick skinned

but a short temper

This patience of mine is thinner than twine is

when I get attacked so

I might say something back that might offend you

So if you don't like when I rap of

what I have to say on the mic

then you might wanna act just like quarterbacks

and take hike when I snap ‘cause

I'm a sinner

Plus balls and intestines

and they never been yes men they gon tell me

when I'm up the minute

I'm ever giving it less than

I'm about to vomit and

I can feel it coming ‘cause failure's something

I can barely stomach and

I only listen to my guts

so unless you're my belly button don't tell me nothing you ain't my

Who you think I'm talking 'bout lifts me up

when I'm down and out

Still look to him without a doubt

Still got a shout it out like there's never been a louder mouth

Should’ve never been allowed a mouth now

that I got a higher power

Now when I black out power outage they powerless

but they crowd around

Tend to flock like shepherds to black sheep

but I'll be the worst thing

that these ever herd

When I'm counted out you be D O A

they'll annouce but pronounce you dead

when they sound it out

Prepare for a rival with your arch enemy

Surrounds you now he's all around you now

Not even the doctor's at the hospital

gonna shiggy shock you back to life

It's in piggy possible to revive you

that's word to the diggy doc stiggy stopping is not an option

something I'm not gonna do

I'm the Iggy Pop of hip hop

When I walk in the booth dawg

I'm the truth like

Biggie rockin with Tupac in the suit

Talking to Proof dropping a deuce fill up a syllable clip

like a refillable script

Cock it and shoot

Who do you think's my

Glock that I use

that I pull from to get my strength up against

these haters and he'll be waiting at the gate

when you get sprayed up

Sending you straight up to deal with my

To the father son and holy spirit

I hold you nearest

My best friend

Let the trumpets blow with your appearance

I can almost hear it

My best friend

When you wish me hell upon my soul

and spirit behold these lyrics

I got a best friend friend

I got a best friend friend yeah
