Real Friends Lyrics - Swish - Kanye West

Real friends, how many of us? 

How many of us, how many jealous? Real friends 

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

But how many honest? Trust issues 

Switched up the number, I can't be bothered 

I cannot blame you for havin' an angle 

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

Hope you're doin' your thing too 

I'm a deadbeat cousin, I hate family reunions 

Fuck the church up by drinkin' after communion 

Spillin' free wine, now my tux is ruined 

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

Who your real friends? We all came from the bottom 

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

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

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

When was the last time I remembered a birthday? 

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

Tell me you want your tickets when it's gametime 

Even to call your daughter on her FaceTime 

Even when we was young I used to make time 

Now we be way too busy just to make time 

Even for my... 

Real friends 

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

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

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

Talked down on my name, throwed dirt on him 

Photos 

I couldn't tell you how old your daughter was 

Couldn't tell you how old your son is 

I got my own Jr. on the way, dawg 

Plus I already got one kid 

Couldn't tell you much about the fam though 

I just showed up for the yams though 

Maybe 15 minutes, took some pictures with your sister 

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

You wanna ask some questions 'bout some real shit? 

Like I ain't got enough pressure to deal with 

Please don't pressure me with that bill shit 

Cause everybody got 'em, that ain't children 

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

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

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

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

Money turn your kin into an enemy 

Niggas ain't real as they pretend to be 

Lookin' for all my real friends 

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

To real friends, to the real end 

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

To 3 A.M., callin' 

How many real friends? 

Just to ask you a question 

Just to see how you was feelin' 

How many? 

For the last you was frontin' 

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

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

How many? 

What's best for your family, immediate or extended 

Any argument, the media'll extend it 

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

Paid that nigga 250 thousand just to get it from him 

Real friends 

Huh? 

Real friends 

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

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

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

Talked down on my name, throwed dirt on him
