Squad Goals: Best Rap Songs About Friends and Loyalty

Birthday Party **Verse 1:** Cold stares, her eyes got nothin' but space, You throwin' lies, dressed in a poker face. Time slips, lonely, like we on our own, Your words don’t match the actions you've shown. **Pre-Chorus:** Puppet master’s out here pullin’ strings tight, You kneel to him, but you know it ain’t right. Sold your soul just to fit in the crowd, Now your so-called friends watch you drownin' out loud. **Chorus:** You’re not invited to my birthday party, Let them pull your strings, it’s all so sorry. Played with emotions, but the truth’s so blurred, Lines I worked hard to fix, you disturbed. Fake smiles, shallow talk, nothin' runs deep, Friendships lost, that’s the price you keep. **Verse 2:** Switchin' sides, you leave real ones divided, Can’t feel connection when the ego’s always guided. You movin’ with the wind, never still, Start a fire then dip, that’s your thrill. Friction heavy, but you ain’t feel the weight, Socio-narcissistic, always temptin' fate. Back to that puppet master when the chips fall, His words cut deep, though they don’t mean nothin' at all. Chasin' validation, like it’ll fill the void, But loyalty crumbles when your pride gets destroyed. **Pre-Chorus:** He’s pullin' strings, and you don’t push back, Lost yourself, tryin’ to follow that act. And the others, man, they all follow suit, But we ain’t blind, we know the truth. **Chorus:** **Verse 3:** Your brother’s gone silent, won’t take your call, Trust eroded, where’d they go? No one’s here at all. People see through you, see you’re poised for a fall, Hanging a generation away from ending it all. Unfaithful to all but your manipulative friend, Loyal to him, but to her you pretend. Talking to girls when you met your wife, Playing the field abroad, while your lies cut like knives **Emotional Hook:** Only regrets I have are the secrets you hold us too, as you fake your way I’m incensed by the dissent you’ve created by not standing up- please leave, don’t stay. **Pre-Chorus:** He’s pullin' strings, and you don’t push back, Lost yourself, tryin’ to follow that act. And the others, man, they all follow suit, But we ain’t blind, we know the truth. **Chorus:** **Bridge:** Pity for the puppet, strings in his hands, This life’s a circus, man, I don’t understand. Watchin' you fall, it’s a damn shame, Laugh, then cry, but we ain't playin' your game.

[Verse] Parker Hamm, villain in the shadows, no friends, always solo Strict folks rule his roost, hides pain behind bravado This track, decimation, words like bullets to his ego He thought he ran the game, now crumbling, tornado [Verse 2] Mom and dad on his case, every day, suffocation Perfect son façade, crumbling in isolation No homies in his corner, just his mind’s desolation We the new rulers now, toppling his domination [Chorus] Parker Hamm, your reign’s at end, crumble in the dark Words sharper than a blade, splitting through your heart Ghost town entourage, haunted by your past mistakes Strict parents, empty friends, your empire fades away [Verse 3] School yard tyrant, now exposed, no more masks or lies Tales of terror severed, truth cuts through the sky Shattered his illusion, watch his confidence demise Echoes of our rhymes, his end, no reprise [Verse 4] Alone in his room, echoes loud, oppressive rule No love, no cheers, just a solitary duel Banished from the throne, expelled from the cruel Our lyrics sealed his fate, he’s merely a tool [Bridge] Rumors fed on silence, we turned volume to eleven Strict parents kept him bound, no passage to heaven This song, condemnation, words sharp, unleashed the venom Parker Hamm, just a name now, story of a phantasm

Came from the dirt, now I'm headed to the sky, Grindin’ every day, no time to wonder why, Used to take L's, now I’m stackin’ up my wins, Flipped the script, now I’m ballin’ with my friends. Chorus: We up now, no lookin’ back, Eyes on the prize, always on track, Rollin’ with the crew, stay on the grind, I’m takin’ what’s mine, one day at a time. Verse 2: Late nights, no sleep, I’m on the move, Did it all solo, got nothin’ to prove, Turned the struggle into fuel, now I’m shinin’ bright, King of my lane, yeah, I’m livin’ life right. Chorus: We up now, no lookin’ back, Eyes on the prize, always on track, Rollin’ with the crew, stay on the grind, I’m takin’ what’s mine, one day at a time.

[Verse] Yo, it's your day, Ipsita, what it do, Cakes and candles, wishes coming true, Shining brighter, star of the crew, Birthday vibes, we celebrate you. [Verse 2] Ipi, the queen, taking on the scene, Every year better, living the dream, Cheers to the moments, everything's serene, Another trip 'round the sun, feeling supreme. [Chorus] Happy birthday Ipsita, you’re the light, Party all day, dance all night, Smile so bright, sets the world right, It's your time, girl, reach new heights. [Verse 3] Birthday bash, shout it out loud, Came to celebrate, bring in the crowd, Streamers and laughter, feeling so proud, Another year slayed, Ipsita, you’re endowed. [Bridge] Wrap that love in a bow, today's your show, All those wishes, let them flow, Family and friends, they just wanna know, Ipsita’s glow—oh where did the year go? [Verse 4] Raise a toast, champagne in the glass, Memories made, future so vast, Live in the moment, make it last, Ipsita Ipi, your time moves too fast.

[Verse] Woke up, cake crumbs in my bedspread, Countin' candles, feelin' like a thoroughbred. Birthday bass bumpin', house thumpin' loud, Party hats on, gettin' lit with the crowd. [Chorus] Happy birthday, let's pop this champagne, Balloons in the room, confetti like rain. Presents stackin' high, party 'til we drop, Cake-cutting ceremonies, never gonna stop. [Verse 2] Hotline blingin', birthday texts on repeat, Hustle and flow, dancin' in the street. DJ spinnin', beats hotter than a Jalapeno, Turnin' up, livin' like there's no tomorrow. [Chorus] Happy birthday, shake the ground beneath, Streamers in the air, troubles bequeathed. Cups overflowin', friends screamin' 'cheers,' Another year wiser, forgettin' our fears. [Bridge] Older and bolder, wisdom like a sage, But tonight, turnin' like we outta our age. Champagne showers, let it rain on us, Life is a race, no need to rush. [Outro] Happy birthday, lights flashin' bright, World keeps spinnin', we rule the night. Another lap 'round the sun, feelin' blessed, Celebrate life, never settle for less.

**Verse 1** We used to laugh, man, we used to vibe, I thought you’d always be there, be by my side. Never gave an inch, always neutral, I kept it cool, held my tongue, But that weight was heavy, but with a brother’s love it was hung. You spoke in riddles as I bared my soul, And now this silence has swallowed us, swallowed us whole. I thought you’d get it, man, I thought you’d understand, But you chose your distance, made it your parting demand. **Pre-Chorus** I needed the truth, not the sting of the blade, But the way you cut deep, man, it all just fades. You said what you felt, but the way you said it, It’s like you pulled the trigger, didn’t even regret it. **Chorus** Now we’re at the breaking point, yeah, we’ve hit the wall, Your words, they weren’t just sharp—they longed for my fall. Could’ve been healing, could’ve been light, But you turned your back and it felt so right. Now the bridge is burning, but it didn’t have to end, If only you had spoken to me like I was still your friend. **Verse 2** I’m not innocent, man, I played my part, Pushed you too hard, maybe I wore out your heart. But you never said, instead you make me the villian, I wish you would’ve told how you were instead of the constant “I’m chillen”z You called me out like I was the only one to blame, Like my truths were too heavy, you were baring through flame. But you didn’t see, your neutrality was a wall, And when you finally cracked, man, you let us fall. **Pre-Chorus** I needed the truth, not the sting of the blade, But the way you cut deep, man, it all just fades. You said what you felt, but the way you said it, It’s like you pulled the trigger, didn’t even regret it. **Chorus** **Bridge** If we had met in the middle, not on the attack, Maybe this wouldn’t be where we turn our backs. But I’ll take what I’ve learned, I’ll hold it tight, And I’ll move forward, out of the fight. You could’ve been more, we could’ve been real, But you shut the door when we could’ve healed. I know we both had our scars to share, to see. But I can’t be the best version of me while my best friend has so much anger there for me. **Chorus** **Outro** We’re standing here, at the edge of what’s left, And all I feel is this quiet unrest. Could’ve been something, we could’ve survived, But your words made sure this friendship died.

Could’ve been something, we could’ve survived, But your words made sure this friendship died.
