best friends
we used to talk a lot and all that
in hindsight i was white and he was all black
we were different and i guess that’s why we gelled together
great minds think alike and so we thought forever

but time passes
and different urges arises
we were in the same class but we were two different classes
while i was getting ridiculed for having bogus trousеrs
man was doing good and had all of the swagger

he used to defend me when i was getting bullied
and had my back when everybody used to call me stupid
he was like a big brother, who pushed me when i couldn’t
i looked up to him, a sensei and i was the student

and my mom knew his mum and she was cool too
devout christians so they passed it unto us too
but he never knew his dad and was intrigued by mine
i always if wondered if he thought about it all the time

but not for long, my mind would wander
maybe if the boy was just a little taller
or if my mom would let me fly shirt and raise my collar
or if she let me stay out longer in my early days
then i would make some ground and catch up to him every day

the gap was getting bigger
and jeffery started changing
i wondered if it was true or i was just overthinking
or i was jealous of the new friends that he was making
or even worse, what if they were replacements

the more i made attempts the more i pushed him far away
i let him be for a moment and then i tried again
he finally let me in but now he was a different person
i found drugs in drawer the least i was expecting

at first, i kept it a secret but then i let him know, why he doing things that he swore to himself he’d never do
he got mad and kicked me out
and i regretted being stern and that’s the story how we never spoke again

i missed him but i got over it
15 years had passed since i last spoke a word to him
can’t deny he came into my mind every now then
but nothing too concrete had to deal with my own biz

not millionaire status but at least i had a few things
have enough for wife and my 2 kids
and i look after my mom and my dad too
in my heart remained the words from the bible

while jeffrey had it all, his instagram was lit
he had the money and the cars plus shoes to match it with
he probably made it everywhere, except his mamas’ crib
cuz he don’t like it when she try to talk some sense in him

no one does i imagine
especially when you’re blinded by selective programming
even worse, his mother didn’t know what to do
and then she thought, maybe i could get him through
i agreed cuz she was desperate

hit em up me brrr, the dial tone had me stressed * he finally answered
before i knew it an hour had passed of reminiscing
old inside jokes * you know * and had a laugh on how we starting to get old

then i asked him bout his lambo, he said bro can i be honest
he got it as a rental to show off that he about it
he told me he was broke and all he wanted was his old life
but now he’s 32, and how’s he supposed to go back

he talked about how his daddy issues
and his mother who was there he’s probably pushed away
when i left his house he thought about me every day
i was shook even more what he was bout to say

said he looked up to me
he tried to be like me, but i was too far to touch to him
and when i went to church every time he’d want to come with me
he caved in to his new friends
and his pride plus their advice made him a new being
i let him know, that it’s never too late
you can always come back home my g
