[Verse 1: Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard]
For all
My people, I’ll be there when you need me, when you want
No, we never front, stick together like The Brady Bunch
I know the drama got you down, but whatever
The case may be, baby, I’ll be there whenever
And never let ‘em think they got you stressing. Believe me
I’m there when you need mе, see the gods, I’m blessing
My mother, my brothеr, I love ya. A father gotta
Be to my daughter ‘cause she’ll never get another, and, uh
You see, we live among the snakes and whores
I’ll pray for the sunny days when it rains and pours
I’ll steal for you, lie for you. When it comes
Down to the wire, you know, love, I would die for you
I’ll be your friend there to the end, and
I’m by your side if you lose or you win
“Sending My Love” your way like Zhané
Leave you lonely? Never. N***a, whatever

[Hook: Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard] (x2)
You know we down for whatever, we’ll always be
Around for whatever, we’ll die for whatever
You know we down for whatever, we’ll always be
Around for whatever, we could die together
[Verse 2: Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard]
My peoples be
Trying tricks to get us through the day when we in the mix
So in a fix, n***as is evil like 666
Friends? How many of us have them? Say they
There for me and disappear like Houdini
For you, all the way up until a deathbed, we go
Out like the lights when you ain’t pay your parlay
“Your Beef Is Mine” Mobb Deep style, baby
You know. ‘Cause if they played you, they played me. We go
Way back to pacifiers and starting fires
Sellers to buyers, trying to get a rep so they don’t try us
Whenever it be, whatever time of day, just
Remember the math ‘cause I’m a phone call away
Whoever. Don’t make me have to lose your life ‘cause I’m
Down for whatever, but now I ain’t nothing nice
Let you down like never, live all the way
No doubt. Fuck it, I’m with whatever (N***a)

[Hook: Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard] (x2)
You know we down for whatever, we’ll always be
Around for whatever, we’ll die for whatever
You know we down for whatever, we’ll always be
Around for whatever, we could die together

[Verse 3: Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard]
Baby, see our
Game is right, we put the “T” in tight to them
Gossiping kids—now you don’t really wanna fight
Times got tougher. Whatever. The crew got toughened, and
We stuck together like dogs when they be fucking
You can’t be better than: if this war, then we be veterans
Drinking “Champagne,” I’m the King like Evelyn
I think most of y’all forgot the facts. It’s all
The way to the grave now, n***a, this ain’t no boxing match
So you could save the one-on-one you’re asking for for
The ring. We’re all into the dearly departing thing. My
Soldiers get armed, mean nothing can harm me, and when this
Shit gets deep, I’ll walk the streets of New York with armies
N***as that creep get put to sleep in the morgue
Like The Isley Brothers, you’ll be in “Between the Sheets,” and
To the n***as who tried to front on me, it’s on
Whenever you want it to be. N***a, whatever
[Hook: Pudgee Tha Phat Bastard] (x2)
You know we down for whatever, we’ll always be
Around for whatever, we’ll die for whatever
You know we down for whatever, we’ll always be
Around for whatever, we could die together
