[Chorus]You and MeWe can make it lastYou and me We can make it lastYou and meWe can make it lastYou and meWe can make it lastYou and me...
[Verse 1]It was me and you Trina who shared the hard timesStill in love wit niggas who was serving some hard timesOr involved wit niggas who lost their livesWhen Hollywood passed I nearly lost my mindI then rolled wit the traffickers, worked in the MaximusD.A in back of us, I'm stretched out nervousAsking myself, "Bitch was this really worth it?"What's my purpose, shit, I gotta keep searchingIt was me and you Trina who asked the same questionswe decided when and which hoes we could fuck withshop wit club wit get into some thug shitturn 'em on to niggas who deep into that drug shitget money fuck a little let a nigga touch a littlehad to make moves our home was so fucking littleFeel that? I know you do, guess what I wrote it tooPlease recognize this is a hip hop quoteable
[Chorus] + (over lapping the chorus)(And even through the stormiest timewe survived through our loneliest nightsJust think about the struggling timeswhen we survived on a nickel and dimeAnd even if I had all the bread in the worldI'd give it all up for one shot atYou and Me, I'm that same bitch)
[Verse 2]You and me were best friends but I'm the one you talk about?I showed love to everybody before I walked up outthe parties the club the functionI leave you bring up discussions on who I'm fucking (please)You and me were best friends we talked about abortionsAs little girls hair braided on the same porchesWe promised each other we would share the same lossesYa baby daddy passed we share the same lossesIt was you and me hoe getting c-notesbell hoppers to the death while Irish chicks deep throatYeah it's beef in the air and why she knowIf anybody do she know how we flowMiami bitches you know how we rollAt any event you know how we goNice entourage lock mints wonder brasAs I sit in the club I miss how it was
[Chorus] + (over lapping the chorus)
[Verse 3]You know it's really funny how the tables turnI moved forward and thank God for the lessons learnedI used the strip clubs as a stepping stoneHit the stage got paid it wasn't my second homeAsk somebody Trina been the shit on the streets Wrote raps late nights I'm the shit on the beatBrought blue baby jeans just to shit on the creepKeep tall body guys just to sit underneathSit back pop bottle ya'll sit on ya'll feetScreaming my name tryna get in V.I.PI don't own the club booI'm just showing love trueBut every time I see ya face I think of me and youIt's disappointing that you fell off well not fell offI just can't accept you not being well offIt wouldn't be me if I didn't tell allI even tried to call you but ya cell off

Not that it really matters, but biographically Annie's "My Best Friend" is about her friend (Erot) dying. Although I guess that does lead to them drifting apart.

I'm not talking about staple shit. They went for something more. I guess it was too much dreaming. Too much to hope for.
One day something funny happened. But it scred the shit out of meTheir heads went in different directions And their friendship ceased to be.
I'm telling you I want it to work. I don't like being hurt. Something's not right inside. And I can't always put it aside. What can we do,what can we do?Try.
Mr. Present, go away. Come and fuck with us some other day. Mr.Feelings, run and hide. You have no right to what you feel inside.Motherfuckers, quick to kiss. Talk your shit, but don't fuck with this.
All I want to know is. Am I holding on? Am I moving on? What can we do, what can we do?Try.
