[Verse 1]
Staring at this old show flyer
Seems our reputations couldn't get no higher
The first time we marqueed as headlining acts rewinding back
To the final defining crack that would paralyze our comradery
Your brotherhoods of commodity, they coulda kept the game
I was naïve to your hatred and I fully accept the blame
Corporates was putting a bug in your eardrum from year one
By the time it reciprocated, the damage was near done
You struck conniving, stuck a knife in me when I'm thinking it's all love
Your intent was to draw blood
All along while I was under the wrong impression
Now I know this nigga's not subliminally dissing me up on stage in serve expression
Dropped my drink, instantly shattered, stop and think
Keep my sanity gathered, it's no longer the concept of family matters
Knowing, the day you held that mic
We both took an 'L' that night, what was you thinking?
[Hook] (x2)
If it's
Loyalty in question, then I'll bleed, and your life is
In the wrong direction, then I'll lead. I've extended
My hand my whole life, but it's your decision
To hold tight if plans don't go right
[Verse 2]
I showed you love from the gate since kingdom introduced us both
And when I addressed you as family, then the truth was spoke
But when I heard your song, the truce was broke
But not because of the ruthless quotes, but it's the principal involved
Fetal acts of reprehensible resolve
More so relevant: who, what, where, and why ain't even sensible to solve
But still I supported you, assumed every grief to catch
When RCA dropped you and you was having beef with Treach
It's not as if it's fly, it's sentimental and such
Our friendship was crushed from the gentlest touched
Oh yeah, congratulations on the adrenaline rush, success was just due
Nothing but praiseworthy comments when niggas discuss you
If it's beef and bad blood, I put the cow on dialysis
My style is on some callousness until financially my peeps is improved
Maybe one day, I rose from leaf and swishing
Chief with Twista, 'til then for now I keeps it moving
[Hook] (x2)
If it's
Loyalty in question, then I'll bleed, and your life is
In the wrong direction, then I'll lead. I've extended
My hand my whole life, but it's your decision
To hold tight if plans don't go right
[Verse 3]
Every move made it's like 'What's up with Juice, why we ain't heard from him?'
Shoulda been blown up every since the battle occurred with Slim
That don't equate success in this game
Disdained in thought that every undisputed MC eventually gets fame
What you think, the nigga win one battle so the war is over?
That's just an extra burden toward his shoulder
If record deals wasn't rewarding soldiers, we'd all be five-star generals
But it's the luck of the draw, makes you realize all amenable
I live to see my fam's dream, envisioning cream fruition
Support a seed, whether a trust fund or a mean tuition
But to the public eye, it seems you missing
And the anticipation and expectation is too extreme for wishing
I hold you down whether you succeed or quit this instance
Before I can spit this sentence, blood thick, nothing can split
This friendship. Triangle for life with me, ya heard?
Let's get off our ass and take what we rightfully deserve
[Hook] (x2)
If it's
Loyalty in question, then I'll bleed, and your life is
In the wrong direction, then I'll lead. I've extended
My hand my whole life, but it's your decision
To hold tight if plans don't go right
