[Chorus: Francis and the Lights & KayCyy]
(Ooh, ooh)
No, friends don't hurt friends (Ooh, ooh)
No, friends don't hurt their friends (No-oh, no-oh)

[Verse 1: KayCyy]
To all my friends, my homies
My brother, my sister, remember what you told me
My shoulder if you ever need someone to lean towards
No more being held back, the only way is forward
And [?]
Yeah-yeah, oh-oh, we cannot share [?], let's go
'Cause I'ma ride for the gang, gang
Could never tell on [?]
Prayin' [?]
It's a cold world that we live in, but it's a code that we all live by
What they doing over their side can never apply on this side
And I know that friends don't hurt friends
Can't lie to your friends over jealousy, I told you friends don't hurt friends
I should be able to trust you with no second thoughts, friends don't hurt friends
If y'all beefin' over petty shit that's bringing evil thoughts, friends don't hurt friends
Why talk behind each other's back when y'all can say that shit across the room

[Chorus: Francis and the Lights & KayCyy]
No, friends don't hurt friends (Ooh, ooh)
No, friends don't hurt friends (Ooh, ooh)
No, friends don't hurt their friends (No-oh, no-oh)

[Verse 2: VIC MENSA]
I can tell that the love is different
I can sense niggas switching sides
Cut me deeper than a circumcision
I've been fucked over like a million times
I learn loyalty is hard to find
Still looking forward but I'm clairvoyant
I can see it coming, all the paranoia
In 2020, shifting paradigms
[?] pirouette
Spending the money I earned
Spending the block [?]
Niggas is creeping [?]
Gave love, didn't expect anything in return
This for the ones that was down from the jump
This for the friends that I lost in the way
This for the friends that be there in the clutch
[Misunderstood] you ain't gotta explain
And I'll be there when your daughter's born
And your daddy dies
You're not alone, I'm by your side
I'm down for the ride
For the good and bad times
Real love is hard to come by but you ain't never gotta question mine

[Chorus: Francis and the Lights]
No, friends don't hurt their friends
'Cause friends don't hurt friends
No, friends don't hurt friends

[Outro: Francis and the Lights]
Friends don't hurt friends
No, friends don't hurt friends
No, friends don't hurt their friends
