[Intro: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
I got a story to tell, bout when I ginormously fell
~#**************#~
Wont say no names though, cause it aint no game, bro
~#**************#~
And it aint no angle makin no woof tickets for me to sell
~#**************#~
Its about two buddies in the middle of bout due
~#**************#~
A lady on the daily puttin out to
~#**************#~
One of the buddies, she told him never let his mouth spew
~#**************#~
Dont let your boy know whats happenin
~#**************#~
‘Cause we were together, plus shackin in
~#**************#~
Thats what you call get some back in friends
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Tech N9ne & Joey Cool]
~#**************#~
I was twenty-one
~#**************#~
She was 40-somethin, say she wanna give me some
~#**************#~
So I started puttin Tecca Ninna in the lungs
~#**************#~
Of the photographer that my homie Brian Bzle brung
~#**************#~
But it was a catch, she didnt want a nigga to rack
~#**************#~
‘Cause her and my homie were together, hed give her the scratch
~#**************#~
After every photo-shoot but hed have a bitter attack
~#**************#~
If he knew his colleague would shoot me then deliver the snatch
~#**************#~
So I kept her secret like a dummy, keepin it professional
~#**************#~
I didnt tell my homie but I was full of regret, you know?
~#**************#~
Ridin out with my homie, out my mouth, aint no decibels
~#**************#~
‘Bout when she finished flickin me, wed bang out on the sectional
~#**************#~
I used to throw him hints sayin, “I really wanna smash her”
~#**************#~
Then he would look at me like I was done it with laughter said
~#**************#~
“She would never do it, I dont know what you after
~#**************#~
Out of your league, man you young, broke and plus you a rapper”
~#**************#~
Damn
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Darrein Safron, Joey Cool & Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Bros become foes yeah (bros become foes)
~#**************#~
Lord knows the lovin was fly though
~#**************#~
It aint worth livin these lies though
~#**************#~
On my dog (On my dog, On my dog)
~#**************#~
Yeah
~#**************#~
I should have told him, I should have told him, I should have told him
~#**************#~
That I was tappin in
~#**************#~
I should have told him, I should have told him, I should have told him
~#**************#~
‘Cause he was a best friend
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
That aint never what you do to best friends
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne & Joey Cool]
~#**************#~
She would pick me up for photo sessions
~#**************#~
But I didnt tell my homie we were low-low sexin
~#**************#~
Man this lady had a body like she was SoloFlexn
~#**************#~
So right after work, she let me give her a pogo lesson
~#**************#~
No confession never told him, I was grindin
~#**************#~
On his workin roommate, I was slimin
~#**************#~
But I messed up and told my other homie Big Nick
~#**************#~
But when me and him fell out he told my best friend
~#**************#~
That I was lyin all this time and then my homie said
~#**************#~
Why is you playin me, Im hearing too many rumors
~#**************#~
Yo you got something to say to me, man?
~#**************#~
You know about my affection for that woman that stay with me
~#**************#~
You supposed to be my homie, why you fuckin and fakin?
~#**************#~
And then I gotta hear from someone else
~#**************#~
You selfish man all you think about is your fuckin self
~#**************#~
You and her be together, I dont need no ones help
~#**************#~
Im feel like Im finna lose it, I dont know what Ima do
~#**************#~
But I swear to…
~#**************#~
Hold on my nigga, you cant be callin me trippin
~#**************#~
Im with my family and I dont know what the hell you talkin bout thats fuckin insanity man
~#**************#~
Why you lyin to me bro, you know these people be talkin
~#**************#~
And their stories sound the same and you makin it awkward
~#**************#~
And I aint finna be the type to act like this dont really hurts
~#**************#~
What am I supposed to do bout it when Im at work?
~#**************#~
You and her, we supposed to be brothers that make it worse
~#**************#~
And he told me everything yall be doin, dont do me dirt
~#**************#~
Dont deny it homie, really you oversteppin your turf
~#**************#~
Told me yall was snappin photos and you removin her skirt
~#**************#~
Even said I shoulda known this fuckin chick was a flirt
~#**************#~
Well how you gonna believe every damn thing he say?
~#**************#~
Dog you for real? You shoulda told me without a delay
~#**************#~
We was like fam, now you got me dealin with hearsay
~#**************#~
And everything that he say, she say
~#**************#~
Oh, I gotta go
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Darrein Safron, Joey Cool & Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Bros become foes yeah (bros become foes)
~#**************#~
Lord knows the lovin was fly though
~#**************#~
It aint worth livin these lies though
~#**************#~
On my dog (On my dog, On my dog)
~#**************#~
Yeah
~#**************#~
I should have told him, I should have told him, I should have told him
~#**************#~
That I was tappin in
~#**************#~
I should have told him, I should have told him, I should have told him
~#**************#~
‘Cause he was a best friend
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
That aint never what you do to best friends
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
So that is how me and my best friend fell out
~#**************#~
‘Cause I told another homie something he had to yell out
~#**************#~
All of our bidness ventures and dreams was the hell out
~#**************#~
And Im left with underhanded things that I can tell bout
~#**************#~
Lost my best friend, cause I was young and dumb
~#**************#~
He lost his life to another brother with a gun
~#**************#~
I never got to tell him that I was sorry, I was sprung
~#**************#~
My other homie just died of cancer, Im numb
~#**************#~
So the moral of the story is dont
~#**************#~
Lie to get something that you really want
~#**************#~
Always keep it real, though a lot of people dont
~#**************#~
Thats why they always in funk
~#**************#~
[Outro: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
Shoulda told him I was tappin in
~#**************#~
That aint never what you do to best friends
