Intro – Melodic, soft vocals]

I’ve been smiling like I’m fine, but I’m breaking on the low

Tired of people switching sides like the seasons come and go

Got some numbers in my phone, but no one I can really call

When I’m falling, when I’m slipping, ain’t nobody there at all

⸻

I need friends that don’t dip when the storm rolls in

Not ones who vanish soon as the fun ends

I been bleeding out, they been feeding doubt

Sayin’ love you to my face, but they’re scheming now

Tired of fake laughs, tired of dry texts

Tired of people who vanish when life’s a mess

I need loyalty, not apologies

I need someone who’ll pray with me, not prey on me

⸻

Tell me where the real ones at

The ones who won’t turn their backs

I been stabbed so many times

Now my trust got cracks

⸻

I could use some real friends

Ones who ride when the road bends

Someone I can talk to

Not just walk through when the show ends

I’ve had too many fake smiles

Heard too many “I’m here” lies

I could use some real love

Not the kind that cuts deep and then hides

⸻

Had “bros for life” that went ghost overnight

Guess loyalty’s rare when you’re losing the fight

I was down bad, they were out chillin’

Now I’m up but still feel like somethin’’s missin’

I don’t want a crew, I want connection

Don’t need the hype, I need affection

Someone who gets it when I go quiet

Not someone who dips when I start cryin’

⸻

Maybe it’s me, maybe I care too deep

Maybe real’s just a dream I keep

But I won’t give up hopin’

That someone out there’s open

⸻

I could use some real friends

Ones who stay when the light ends

Someone I can bleed to

Who won’t leave too when the night bends

Sick of all the cold eyes

Need a shoulder that don’t lie

I could use some real ones

The kind that show up when I cry

⸻

Yeah, I could use some real friends…

I’m done with pretend friends…

I just want some real ones…

Real ones…
