Real Friends Lyrics - Kanye West

1 Real friends, how many of us?

2 How many of us, how many jealous? Real friends

3 It's not many of us, we smile at each other

4 But how many honest? Trust issues

5 Switched up the number, I can't be bothered

6 I cannot blame you for havin' an angle

7 I ain't got no issues, I'm just doin' my thing

8 Hope you're doin' your thing too

9 I'm a deadbeat cousin, I hate family reunions

10 Fuck the church up by drinkin' after communion

11 Spillin' free wine, now my tux is ruined

12 In town for a day, what the fuck we doin'?

13 Who your real friends? We all came from the bottom

14 I'm always blamin' you, but what's sad, you not the problem

15 Damn I forgot to call her, shit I thought it was Thursday

16 Why you wait a week to call my phone in the first place?

17 When was the last time I remembered a birthday?

18 When was the last time I wasn't in a hurry?

19 Tell me you want your tickets when it's gametime

20 Even to call your daughter on her FaceTime

21 Even when we was young I used to make time

22 Now we be way too busy just to make time

23 Even for my...

24 Real friends

25 I guess I get what I deserve, don't I?

26 Word on the streets is they ain't heard from him

27 I guess I get what I deserve, don't I?

28 Talked down on my name, throwed dirt on him

29 I couldn't tell you how old your daughter was

30 Couldn't tell you how old your son is

31 I got my own Jr. on the way, dawg

32 Plus I already got one kid

33 Couldn't tell you much about the fam though

34 I just showed up for the yams though

35 Maybe 15 minutes, took some pictures with your sister

36 Merry Christmas, then I'm finished, then it's back to business

37 You wanna ask some questions 'bout some real shit?

38 Like I ain't got enough pressure to deal with

39 Please don't pressure me with that bill shit

40 Cause everybody got 'em, that ain't children

41 Oh you've been nothin' but a friend to me

42 Niggas thinkin' I'm crazy, you defendin' me

43 It's funny I ain't spoke to niggas in centuries

44 To be honest, dawg, I ain't feelin' your energy

45 Money turn your kin into an enemy

46 Niggas ain't real as they pretend to be

47 Lookin' for all my real friends

48 How many of us? How many of us are real friends

49 To real friends, 'til the reel end

50 'Til the wheels fall off, 'til the wheels don't spin

51 To 3 A.M., callin'

52 How many real friends?

53 Just to ask you a question

54 Just to see how you was feelin'

55 How many?

56 For the last you was frontin'

57 I hate when a nigga text you like, "what's up, fam, hope you good"

58 You say, "I'm good" then great, the next text they ask you for somethin'

59 How many?

60 What's best for your family, immediate or extended

61 Any argument, the media'll extend it

62 I had a cousin that stole my laptop that I was fuckin' bitches on

63 Paid that nigga 250 thousand just to get it from him

64 Real friends

65 Huh?

66 Real friends

67 I guess I get what I deserve, don't I

68 Word on the streets is they ain't heard from him

69 I guess I get what I deserve, don't I

70 Talked down on my name, throwed dirt on him
