  • [Chorus]
    They're here now
    But then they're gone (oh)
    Where they at, I don't know
    Hey, oh they hit the door
    That kinda friend I gotta let go
    A super (friend) a super (friend)
    Yes sir I got me one of them
    A super (friend) a super (friend)
    I got me a super friend

    No sir there's nothing half way about Him
    This world could never be made without Him
    No heart no breath no mind
    No sun no moon no time
    He's something like the best of them
    He's nothing like the rest of them

    [Chorus]

    Lord I'm so weak and scared to run
    What have I done to deserve a life like this
    The devil's scared to fight us in the light
    He hides in the midst of religion
    But I know that my God is listening there for me
    There's a greater mission
    You're no girl, you're no man, but a plan for greater peace
    I'll fight for the light until my flesh falls deceased
    I'm fighting the devil, fighting police
    And in the church Lord I'm looked at as Satan
    Cause in my music I curse
    But I'm trying to do better and that's the thing that really hurts
    All this sex and the drugs in my life mean nothing
    When my Superfriend hugs me at night tears come rushing
    There's no kryptonite, no dealing no lie that could be told
    That can separate the power that you have over my soul
    So stunting is a habit when I'm gripping this mic
    Y'all thinking I'm a pimp but I'm trying to be like Christ
    In real life yeah

    [Chorus]

    He heard me before I made a sound
    Caught me before I hit the ground
    He knows everything I need
    Before I tell him anything
    Loves me without requirements
    Cant see Him but it's evident
    He's something like the best of them
    Said He's nothing like the rest of them

    [Chorus]t

    Can't nobody do me like my Superfriend
    Can't nobody do me like my Superfriend (no) [Repeat: x2] Writer/s: DAVID BANNER, ERICA ATKINS-CAMPBELL, TRECINA ATKINS-CAMPBELL, WARRYN CAMPBELL
