friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain
it's not somethin you learn in school
but if you haven't learned the meanin' of friendship
you really haven't learned anything
~chorus
i know sometimes i forget to show it
but homeboy you should always know it
you should know that i'm down for life
cuhz you're down for life
so we're down for life
so we're down for life
from the beginnin' all the way to the present
my dogs been a gift cuhz they are my best friends
never knew phony homies ever since
fake aint an issue cuhz love don't pretend
and i know that the road that i choose to ride
you show that the homie in you will ride
so i dont worry cuhz i know that you don't lie
truth be told, you get me up but you're down for life
i know it sounds cliche, but hey
you was there for me about everday
anytime i need a shoulder just to lean on
or even a soldier just to be strong
you were never gone, showed that you were the one
that i could go to when i'm feelin' hopeless
the one i can talk to when i aint focused
you stepped up, said what? crazed you better get up
when i was fed up, you said keep your head up
and instead of doing things that i would regret
if i didn't have doe, you gave me bread
and durin' all the times i felt i was gon' die
you told me not to worry cuhz you'll always be with me
that's my homie for real cuhz you're down for life
chorus
i know sometimes i forget to show it
but homeboy you should always know it
you should know that i'm down for life
cuhz you're down for life
so we're down for life
so we're down for life
so young, so fun, when the boys would come
show so much love even when we get dumb
when you couldn't breathe through stress, i gave my lungs
put one and one together kid we still make one
that's what becomes, the definition of love
my heart, my life, i'll give you all the above
ride til we die fo life and i,
know you by my side when i need a guide
cuhz you're always there with me and
you always cared for me
when it gets so hard, stress from my job
you show you got the power to help me like you're God
and i know i don't need to show i'm feelin' down cuhz you're down for life
remember when my cousin done passed away
you helped me cry my tears to pass away
cuhz my homies are down til the latest days
and when i crash on the path you grab my hands and say
"don't worry, don't worry, i'm always here for you so just holla at me"
so i know that you're more than a friend
your hands extend, more than it needs to
you're here, more than i need you
i read you my sins, you lead me to win,
and when i need someone to ease my pain
my heart leads me to see you again
cuhz you're here for me til the end
chorus
i know sometimes i forget to show it
but homeboy you should always know it
you should know that i'm down for life
cuhz you're down for life
so we're down for life
so we're down for life
times get hard,
whenever i'm reminded of my moms and pops
and i try to stop the tear shed, still can't
but through the years my homies show me that the only thing i need
is to speak my fears and they're still be here
for real, for real, they'll always be here
i hold on tight and i
i hold on strong and i
i always go right cuhz i don't wanna go wrong
and my boys i dedicate you this song
cuhz you made my disfunctional house a happy home
i can't repay you for what you gave me
cuhz you're like jesus, you came to save me
when my days get hazy, my eyez get hazy
you open up the lids, showin' the kid
that you're more than a homeboy
you're like my brother from another mother
stay down as long as you live man, i know boy
