My best friend and love I once had knew
the day he passed, I was feeling so blue
an amazing man who was loved by those
when I had his love, he was a tender rose.
We've been friends since we were young
he never held back his beautiful tongue
a great friend who was right by my side
I was real mad when I heard that he died.
It took me a while to accept that he's out
deep down inside, I just wanted to shout
God took away my best friend and mate
that's why I'm bitter & have so much hate.
My best friend died & now I'm depressed
he was so humble & yet he was blessed
I broke down & cried when he lost his life
he died with a lady he claimed as his wife.
