Fighting for a Friend

....Yo, I lost my best friend when I was 19
Shaking so hard, she just flew from the scene
This is no dream, this is what happened, she used to be so strong
But I guess she couldn't maintain a bond
Feeling miserable
Everyday she was skipping school
I tried to tell her "Wake up, girl, this isn't you"
But I wasn't getting though
She told me she had better shit to do
She said "Why should I listen to you?
Telling me to look at life with a different view?
When you do the same thing I do?"
I wish I knew,
But I was just only trying to help
'Cause she hurt people she loved, the way she lied to herself
But she kept it all inside of herself
Still, I was surprise when she found
'Cause she used to be the one that I could lean on
But I'm keep on
Searching, now that she's gone
Because I miss you


- Why are you scared to save your friends?
I'll let the pen slide to describe just how I'm feeling
- Why are you scared to save your friends?
It was her sign that I cried, but now I building
- Why are you scared to save your friends?
I'll let the pen slide to describe just how I'm feeling
- Why are you scared to save your friends?
It was her sign that I cried, but now I building

I try to hope for the best, you know, just to cope with the stress
And the pain I froze in my chest,
But as the time went by, I lost my faith
A mistake I often make,
And after few months I felt like shit
If this is what she wants I'ma stop searching
This is not working,
But this is certain
Which your best friend be a missing person
Then I turned into a different person
With a hole in my soul,
And I don't mean none in my shoes
Living by my own rules
I've been stuck for too long
I have to get up and move on and face that she's gone

- Why are you scared to save your friends?
I'll let the pen slide to describe just how I'm feeling
- Why are you scared to save your friends?
It was her sign that I cried, but now I building
- Why are you scared to save your friends?

...Then a couple weeks passed by
And I ain't even asked "Why"
Why's been days since I last cried?
There's two sides to a story
And one's the back side, and she chose that side
Not 'cause she liked pride, she had too much pride, I guess
I blocked her out, just to hide the stress
Closed the door, locked her out, need time to rest
It felt like I had nightmares for light years
As soon as I closed my eyes, she was right there
Then one day I got a call from this girl and she said
"Your best friend is right here"
"Is right where"
"Is right here"
She's dying to meet you, been trying to reach you
Got on a bus, train, boat and plane
Walked thought hell, snow and rain
'Cause the pain got me brain damaged like nothing
And when I came to the town here's what I found...
And when I came to the town here's what I found.....
I found my soul and I found myself
I found my soul and I found myself
I found my soul and I found myself
I found my soul and I found myself
I FOUND MY SOUL AND I FOUND MYSELF
