Derby to Liverpool
Thank you
G's arrived on all your platforms
Get tunes moving Like embassy passports
Music
It's what I need cash for
Watch me sneak through through the industry's backdoor
Move forward
What would I look back for
Done with the jankros, snakes and the damn whores
Had to leave D E
Get my head down
Focus on me and rap more
Not looking at my mandem like
What's he done that for
Dumb dumb need that smack jaw
See through the man like glass walls
Found my feet for the time being
That's all I can ask for
I ain't no religious man
I feel a divinitive plan
Mapped out casually
Life happens so naturally
Next stop fam
I ain't figured it out
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be
All I can be is me
All I can be is G
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be
All I can be is me
All I can be is G
I was chasing the wealth
But evading myself
Insane to think I was waiting in hell
Stuck there before I could speak or spell
Angelic little face but a demon as well
Oh well
Penny for my thoughts
Yeah
My piffs got the smell
Sweet little numba
I choose Mary Jane any day over mystery gal
Fix up a fine dish up on my stove
Hopped off of the roads
Got out of the OAK coz the bros
They was acting on top
Stop
Too much powder in nose
I'm a Pepsi guy
Left that coke
Don't test me guys
Come back with the flows
Like a jetski ride
Raising your heartrate
For the bars sake imma get this right
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be
All I can be is me
All I can be is G
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be
All I can be is me
All I can be is G
So the music's moving now
Said im gonna do this now calm down
I don't move with clowns
No hype
I'm cruising around
Out of your lanes
Away from all of your games
No stress on my brain your all of the same
No roll of the dice
Not involved in the games
Yeah
Gregs not playing
Game face got eyes on prize
To the top of the pile I'll climb
Put down some floorboards
Start all over again
Till I sort out my fam and my guys
You're acting surprised
I stopped dressing all fly
Dot to dot I connect my grind
Catching connective flights
My ma js blessed up for life
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be
All I can be is me
All I can be is G
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be
All I can be is me
All I can be is G
Motives never been loco bro
Used to loco though
I'd flip like a skater going pro
Snapped Both my knees I ain't gonna go pro
I Ain't going slow
Grinding hard
Swapped the rail for the bars
Still catch me down the skatepark
Cause I got a lost love for the art
Said im gonna do this I'm gonna move music
Gregs re routing away from sniffing and snooting
Done with dealing with drivelling idiots acting deluded
Mad tunes I'm choosing
Don't test my intellect
If I get it you get it
Ill get where Im getting
Love to all of my people
Deepest levels of love and respect
Yeah man I do it like me
Don't do it like them man I do it like G
That's all I can be




All I can be is me
All I can be is G

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Ben-G's song "Loco" suggest the direction in which the artist is going to take the listener. The announcement of a delayed train, heading towards various destinations in the North of England, sets the tone for the following lines where the rapper elaborates on his personal journey towards self-discovery, which also involves a physical relocation. He announces his arrival on "all your platforms", which can be interpreted as a metaphor for establishing a presence in the music industry, and compares his journey to sneaking through the backdoor of that industry. He distances himself from negative influences and experiences in his past and focuses on his own artistic development, which is characterized by originality and authenticity. He wants to be recognized for who he is and not as a copy of someone else.


The references to drugs, especially cocaine, and the injuries suffered while skateboarding underscore the difficulties Ben-G has encountered on his road to personal and artistic fulfillment. However, he remains positive and committed to his goals, which include helping his family and friends as well as pursuing his passion for music. The lyrics suggest that the artist has found a kind of equilibrium within himself, despite the challenges he has faced, and this equilibrium is reflected in the rhythm of the song, which is calm and melodic. In essence, "Loco" is a song about the search for identity and the importance of self-awareness, both of which are crucial themes in hip-hop music.
