Friend Wit Someone
I am, I was, I can be…Yes! I am your friend
We walked to school together we were co-creators of neighborhood clubs
We drew and wrote are own comic characters we were brothers
In the beginnings of our time even in the rains of the lands
I am, I was, I will always be Yes I am your very good friend
Even in the mist of our pains, I shall always be a witness
We were of difference races during the racial conflicts and yet we didn't get it
What's with all the hate
Next door neighbors
You are one of the greatest being
I am, I shall always try to be
As free to be a friend to you
As you are a friend to me a friend is a friend no matter
How heated the world around you gets
In the daily rewards, and sorrows
I will always pray for you, always
As you are a friend to me
I am, you are one with whom
You are one who has a bond of mutual affection
