Real Friends

Real friends call Real friends dare To love and to care At the mall The other day, a bunch of kids Were together playing skits Without scripts, without transcripts Some were wearing beads And others were without masks We heard several big blasts All of a sudden, noise was coming From everywhere. People were fighting That was a test of friendship ‘Cause friends stood together, even when the ship Was sinking deep in the ocean Friends help friends in any commotion Friends call anytime All the time Real friends dare To love and to care Real friends are like the air Real friends are always fair Real friends call Even at the mall When the noise is unbearable And the crowd is unmanageable Friends are not like brothers and sisters Friends are not like fathers and mothers Real friends are like rocks and flowers Real friends are not backstabbers Real friends watch your back Real friends rock.
