[Verse 1: Dwizofoz]
I'm strong enough to look past the lies in my brother's eyes
But not strong enough to look him in the eye when my brother cries
As a younger child I watched my mother cry a hundred times as she sang my lullabies
Now these motherfuckers wonder why I find it hard to shut my eyes
When did they become so nice?
Some survive the toughest times and others die
Some'll find solace in the buzz in ice, like it's something nice
Till gettin buzzed and fried cost them their fucking life
I've seen too many fall to walk that route
Keep secrets locked inside my head it hurts too much to talk about
Stayin staunch is integral, never talk to the federal
Strength and Loyalty's essential, That's all I'm about
I've seen actors lie and try and say it's all love
Then snitch a lot to the cops, sign a statement, avoid lock fuckin piss weak (dog cunts)
I'll never salute a liar
I stay awake late, swingin a lager, sparkin a lighter, smokin a lung full
Just to put my mind to rest, the rest of the time I'm kinda tense on living life on edge
Rely on strength to get me through, never have the time to vent
My crew relies on me, not knowing that I rely on them
My minds a mess, at times it gets the best of me
Then I feel that thing that beats inside my chest
And I'm reminded then just how much worse life can get
Then I'm thankful
I wouldn't be as strong as I am, if life wasn't painful
[Hook]
I'm Strong and Loyal and I'll never change
Two words that go over your heads
I'm Strong and Loyal and I'll never change
I'm Strong and Loyal and I'm proud of it too
X2
[Verse 2: Flowz Dilione]
Cops'll never have me under their thumb
I'll never snitch, on the witness stand I'll cut out my tongue
I'll never sell my soul for money or drugs
Twenty-five to life for my fam is nothing but love
I'm as loyal as they come call me kamikaze
I lead better than they've ever seen in any army
My team's strong they'll finish you if you ever start me
Without me saying one word, I don't need to ask em
And the same goes for them, that's just how it is
We go halves in everything we have but without the rings
And if my fam lack the funds then I'm shouting it
Never hesitate to lend a mate when he's out of [?]
Betrayal is poor and loyalty's rich
I'm a king, you don't even know what royalty is
Ain't nobody ever call me a snitch
Pleading guilty is a victory so I don't need a lawyer to win
Stitched lips like the inmates on Christmas Island
Even up in the Supreme Court I'll sit in silence
They could set me in flames, I'll never mention a name
Not even if they extinguish the fire
I'll stay the same till the day that I'm dead
It's too late to change, I can't remove my brain from my head
My loyalty is set in stone like a Masons edge
Take it to the grave the way that I am (yeah)
[Hook]
[Outro: Flowz Dilione]
Yeah
Big ups to the family
SAL, Stong and Loyal
Brothers in arms till death do us part
The circle is cancellous
Strong and Loyal till the casket drops!
