It's a little chilly out there 00:02

How you can stand there is beyond me 00:05

00:08

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore 00:38

How do you not check on me when things go wrong 00:44

Guess I should've tried to keep my family closer 00:48

Much closer 00:51

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore 00:53

Guess that's what they say you need family for 00:59

Cause I can't depend on you anymore 01:03

01:07

Always saw you for what you could've been 01:10

Ever since you met me 01:14

Like when Chrysler made that one car that looked just like the Bentley 01:16

I always saw you for what you could've been 01:19

And even when it's business with you it's personal again 01:27

I knew you before you made ends meet now were meeting our ends 01:34

And its all because you chose a side 01:43

You're supposed to put your pride aside and ride for me 01:47

Guess it wasn't time 01:52

And of course you went and chose a side that wasn't mine 01:56

02:02

You're so predictable I hate people like you 02:07

Kennedy Road taught me not to trust people like you 02:11

How you supposed to figure what I'm going through 02:14

You can't even figure out what's going on with you 02:18

You judge 'fore you met me yeah it figures 02:22

I make all the player's anthems for the real niggas 02:26

With my dad out in Tennessee is where I belong 02:29

Out here in L.A. I don't know what's going on 02:33

I don't know what's going on 02:39

And its all because you chose a side 02:42

You're supposed to put your pride aside and ride for me 02:47

Guess it wasn't time 02:51

And of course you went and chose a side that wasn't mine 02:56

03:02

You sit and you pray hoping that the stars align 03:06

My luck is a sure thing cause I'm living right 03:10

When I needed you, you couldn't give me any advice 03:14

But you always had something to say every other time 03:17

Everybody that I met on the way tries to get in the way 03:21

I'm fooding and serving them all like I'm working for minimum wage 03:25

Someone up there must just love testing my patience 03:29

Someone up there must be in need of some entertainment 03:33

Forgiveness for your ways 03:37

If I ever loved ya, I'll always love ya that's how I was raised 03:40

Same way I'm right here still feeling the wave 03:44

Same way I'm realizing on a day to day 03:48

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore 03:51

How do you not check on me when things go wrong 03:56

Guess I should've tried to keep my family closer 04:00

Much closer 04:04

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore 04:06

Guess that's what they say you need family for 04:11

Cause I can't depend on you anymore 04:15

Much closer 04:19

04:22

Anytime people want to start problems 05:01

For real are you done 05:03

You know who mans are 05:04

I'm not afraid no gyal heart man 05:05

And I'm not afraid of no catty 05:07

And I'm not afraid of no waste neither 05:09

So anybody who want it can get it 05:11

Its that fact 05:14

Lyrics:

[English]

It's a little chilly out there

How you can stand there is beyond me

...

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore

How do you not check on me when things go wrong

Guess I should've tried to keep my family closer

Much closer

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore

Guess that's what they say you need family for

Cause I can't depend on you anymore

...

Always saw you for what you could've been

Ever since you met me

Like when Chrysler made that one car that looked just like the Bentley

I always saw you for what you could've been

And even when it's business with you it's personal again

I knew you before you made ends meet now were meeting our ends

And its all because you chose a side

You're supposed to put your pride aside and ride for me

Guess it wasn't time

And of course you went and chose a side that wasn't mine

...

You're so predictable I hate people like you

Kennedy Road taught me not to trust people like you

How you supposed to figure what I'm going through

You can't even figure out what's going on with you

You judge 'fore you met me yeah it figures

I make all the player's anthems for the real niggas

With my dad out in Tennessee is where I belong

Out here in L.A. I don't know what's going on

I don't know what's going on

And its all because you chose a side

You're supposed to put your pride aside and ride for me

Guess it wasn't time

And of course you went and chose a side that wasn't mine

...

You sit and you pray hoping that the stars align

My luck is a sure thing cause I'm living right

When I needed you, you couldn't give me any advice

But you always had something to say every other time

Everybody that I met on the way tries to get in the way

I'm fooding and serving them all like I'm working for minimum wage

Someone up there must just love testing my patience

Someone up there must be in need of some entertainment

Forgiveness for your ways

If I ever loved ya, I'll always love ya that's how I was raised

Same way I'm right here still feeling the wave

Same way I'm realizing on a day to day

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore

How do you not check on me when things go wrong

Guess I should've tried to keep my family closer

Much closer

All of my "let's just be friends" are friends I don't have anymore

Guess that's what they say you need family for

Cause I can't depend on you anymore

Much closer

And I'm not afraid of no catty
