The Good Ones

This is for the ones
Who make me who I am
They stick like peanut butter

When I’m in a jam
(Talk about it)

This is for the ones
Who always keep it real
Only family and friends
On my ferris wheel
(Talk about it)

It’s all unconditional, non fictional
Three dimensional, building the bridge
And all the love in my life

They keep me 100
They get me out from under
I know I’ve got to keep
The good ones
The good ones close
Keep it 100
And I don’t ever wonder
I know I’ll always keep
The good ones
The good ones close

Keep the good ones close
(Keep the good ones-)

They get me outta bed
At “oh my God” a.m.
They let me stay up late
Gotta love the fam
(Talk about it)

Life is like a stage
And I didn’t rehearse
And I should I act my age
Well, that would be a first
(Talk about it)

I get nonsensical
Not to mention
Incomprehensible
Semi-responsible
They know what I mean
(There’s no in between)

They keep me 100
They get me out from under
I know I’ve got to keep
The good ones
The good ones close
Keep it 100
And I don’t ever wonder
I know I’ll always keep
The good ones
The good ones close

Keep the good ones close
(Keep the good ones close)

I want everybody to see
Who the good ones are
What they mean to me
I said, I want everybody to know
It’s a two way street
It’s the same wherever I go

I’mma be your good one too, you know!

They keep me 100
They get me out from under
I know I’ve got to keep
The good ones (the good ones)
The good ones close (the good ones)
Keep it 100
And I don’t ever wonder
I know I’ll always keep
The good ones (the good ones)
The good ones close (the good ones close)

Keep the good ones close
Keep the good ones close
Keep the good ones close
(Keep the good ones close)
