Analysis of Show me your friends and I'll show you your future



If you choose to be around those who are wise
Your future will be far from surprise
For those that you learn from, you can never forget
Knowledge and strength is something you will get

If you choose to be around those who lack ambition
Then you'll find that your future is in it's own position
You'll be stuck in a place that you don't want to be
And you'll have to work hard just to brake free

So choose who you are affiliated with
For it can make or break your future path
Your friends will shape who you are today
So pick them carefully and watch what you say
