Friends Are Poison - Prayers, Travis Barker

My dues are paid, I paid them in full

Instead of giving credit, where the credit is due

They say that I changed, they say I’m no good

I never did them dirty, yet they run my name through the dirt (3x)

Because friends are poison, friends are dead weight

They’ll talk behind your back, they’ll lie to your face

They’ll kick you when you’re down, they’ll spit in your face

Because friends are poison, friends are dead weight

I would never dream of taking something I didn’t earn

Yet they’ve taken what’s mine, and they’ve taken their turn

I’ve seen their true colors, I’ve seen through their words

I let them drink from my cup until they quench their thirst

When I needed them the most, I had no friends just dirt (2x)

Because friends are poison, friends are dead weight

They’ll talk behind your back, they’ll lie to your face

They’ll kick you when you’re down, they’ll spit in your face

Friends are poison, friends are dead weight

I cut the head off a rat, I cut the tongue off a snake

Respect is earned, make no mistake

The sleeper has awakened, my path has been set

Loyalty has an expiration date

I said friends are poison, friends are dead weight

They’ll talk behind your back, they’ll lie to your face

They’ll kick you when you’re down, they’ll spit in your face

Because friends are poison, friends are dead weight

Born alone, die alone;

No faith, no hope, I walk alone

People make me feel, make me feel the most alone

I only feel the love, kill the love when I’m alone

Born alone, die alone;

No faith, no hope, I walk alone

Because friends are poison, friends are dead weight

Trust no one, trust no man

Believe in yourself and rise above the rest (2x)

Because friends are poison, friends are dead weight
