If I fall first, will you follow
If I fall first, will you follow
I got a friend, but we don't talk
Battling depression, losing to dark
I wish I gave him a piece of my heart
But it's hard to mend something apart
Whether you're rich or whether you're poor
There's nothing more worth than where you start
And battling demons, I know it's hard
But I can't watch you kill yourself and leave the family scarred
See, what you need to believe is all the things that you can't see
And maybe that's the reason that I always put the blame on me
Cause how can I help you when I can't help myself
And I don't know what hurts more
Knowing that you changed or that I could've done more
And I know that you catch the vibe since we barely speak
When your birthday passed, not a single call or text to speech
And them times we shared, it stuck on my mind on repeat
Cause we were more than friends, you was a brother to me
And you helped me overcome something other than me
And I know these words are cutting you deep
If I fall first, will you follow
If I fall first, will you follow
I got a friend, but we don't speak
Similar trauma, but more than me
Watched his parents die before 16
Met each other in 17', we were both 18 with big dreams
Talking about our journeys, we had hope to do big things
In 2018, he said that he's gonna write a book
In 2018, I said that I'd go and drop my hooks
We working everyday until our dreams could come true
And even when the rumors started to spread, I thought they was untrue
Only 18 hours apart from birth, so how could that be you
I thought we was family until the end, I guess that wasn't proved
Two flowers from the concrete can coexist, we never grew
That's why you stabbed me in my back for something that I never knew
It's hard to hold emotions back with my attitude
But I'm a man so I won't disrespect you or be rude
So I forgive you, but for me there's no going back
Cause I can't have a snake inside my circle ready to attack
