[intro: Riley and friend]

*talking*:
Man I don’t know what to do.
Don’t worry about it, I got your back

[verse 1]
Your trustworthy? I don’t know about that    
You always go and stab me in the back     
You know it’s true stop being a brat     
Some days I feel like i’m gonna crack      
Some days I feel like i’m goin’ off track      
I always thought I needed you      
I guess I was wrong because now I don’t even want to see you 

I feel a little better now because they reminded me

[chorus]
We got your back, never gonna’ leave iiiit
Never gonna’ leave you alone
We are always gonna be here for yoooouuu
Ya no matter what
We got your back

[verse 2]
It’s so stressful right now       
All this work keeps piling up       
Staying positive? It’s hard to know how     
Everyone wants so much of me, but I’m not ready to be a grown-up
The focus is all on me, but i’d much rather be runner-up  
It’s hard to focus on everything that’s going on    
Sometimes I feel like i’m in a game and i’m just a pawn  

I feel good now because they reminded me

[chorus]
We got your back, never gonna’ leave iiiit
Never gonna’ leave you alone
We are always gonna be here for yoooouuu
Ya no matter what
We got your back

[verse 3]
I been feeling so sad        
I don’t really know why        
I don’t know what else to add      
Anxiety? To you I wanna say goodbye     
All this pressure building up, ya it makes me wanna cry  
When I stop jokin’, it’s hard to cope      
I’m lookin’ for answers, but I keep comin’ up broke   

I feel amazing now because they reminded me

[chorus]
We got your back, never gonna’ leave iiiit
Never gonna’ leave you alone
We are always gonna be here for yoooouuu
Ya no matter what
We got your back

[outro: Riley and friend]
*talking*

Thanks for always having my back
No problem that’s what friends are for.


The author's comments:

I wanted to make this song because I deal with a lot of the topics in the song like I have a bunch of fake friends, stress from school, and a lot of other problems in school and I wanted to let everyone know that no matter someone will always be there for you whether it's a real friend or sibling or parent they will be there to help no matter what.

This is my first song and I hope you like it and like/understand the meaning of the song.
