[Intro: Trent Shelton]
As real as I can put it
Jealousy is real, and loyalty is rare
It's crazy how you can be there for everybody
But when you need somebody, nobody seems to be there
You know, fake people don't surprise me anymore
Loyal people do
[Chorus]
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
(Quincy Tellem)
Coulda caught me a bird for a war I ain't started
But I found myself involved (Turn, turn)
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
Touched road and I grew some roses
Got straight out the mud of the soil (Turn, turn)
Is there such a thing as bеin' way too loyal?
Always eight racks to show
How still we ain't whipped up for bro (Uh)
Is thеre such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
Steady and slow always wins the race
I turned down million pounds and more (Money)
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
[Verse 1]
Still grateful (Turn, turn), I’m still screaming money ain't a thing that's a mindset
I signed for peanuts to my label (Ugh)
'Cause I come up from nothing, and now it' just Gucci, cuff links
(Turn up, turn up)
They said that the deal won't change you
But if you get stopped with fifty racks in cash then the jakes can't touch you
I signed my deal on a Monday (One), Tuesday I blew some money (One)
Wednesday I patterned up pops, I'm feeling like I'm blessed by God and mumsy (One)
Shutdown my show on a Thursday, Friday I had a copped out from early (One)
Uh, but the opps want clout more than they wanna hurt me
It's still losses and winnings, but the fans wanna see these drillers
They don't want me living, they want me existin'
You know how it gets in prison
Twenty-four hours is a drive-by shootin', I call that social distance
Uh, and they wanna blame me for all the killings
[Chorus]
Coulda caught me a bird for a war I ain't started (Ugh)
But I found myself involved (Turn, turn)
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
Touch road and I grew some roses
Got straight out the mud of the soil (Turn, turn)
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
Always eight racks to show
How still we ain't whipped up for bro
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
Steady and slow always wins the race
I turned down million pounds and more (Money)
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
[Verse 2]
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
My family turned funny, he ain't got morals
I told 'em if he link up with the oppers
Count me out a relation spoilt (Uh)
I still say "Hello" to auntie (Turn, turn)
Most at them old school hall parties
Or sip sips of a Supermalt, but now if you link up we dish out smoke
But that ain't my fault, I was mindin' my business up in O (One)
I had eighteen zeds in the Addison Lee same time as Not3s
Notes all in my 'mari jeans, my Burberry tee it match the coat
Coat is a trench, so I'm comin' for the trenches
Somebody told me I'm jugglin' both
I coulda caught me a 12 if I drilled it
With my life at risk, oh no (Money)
I got a hood to inspire, and a family to feed, I call that growth (One)
I got nothin' to prove (One), but I got it all to lose
When I go die, they’ll call me a legend
Like prince Tutankhamun
[Chorus]
Coulda caught me a bird for a war I ain't started (Ugh)
But I found myself involved
Is there such a thing' as bein' way too loyal?
Touch road and I grew some roses
Got straight out the mud of the soil (Turn, turn)
Is there such a thing' as bein' way too loyal?
Always eight racks to show
How's still re-up whipped up for bro
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
Steady and slow always wins the race
I turned down million pounds and more (Money)
Is there such a thing as bein' way too loyal?
