I had your back since back in the day
But now when you see me coming you just turn away.
We used to jam when you were a no name
But now you can’t even give me the time of day.
I thought you were my friend but now I see your true colors,
I let you in my home, you had the nerve to call me brother,
But now I see you’re just a backbiter.
Just a backbiter

You’re always right there to take a puff when somebody
Else is passing the spliff around,
But when we’re hurting and the times get tough
Its funny how we never seem to see your face around.
I caught you in a lie and now you’re searching for excuses,
Just look me in the eye because I already know the truth is
That you’re nothing but a backbiter.
Nothing but a backbiter.

So don’t you come around,
Don’t come around no more
I guess the money was enough to make you turn your nose up,
And all them bright lights flashing must’ve messed your mind up.
But when the money’s gone and the spotlight fades,
Who you gonna cry to, who’s gonna believe your charade?
And when ya comin’ home, you’ll find everything has changed.

So don’t you come around,
Don’t come around no more
Backbiter, where you gonna run to,
Backbiter, who’s gonna believe you,
Backbiter, who you gonna cry to now?
