Loyalty
K.a.a.n Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just for you, love is here for you
I always choose you, I said I always choose you
I chose loyalty over love, you know that you my other half
You my nigga, my homie and my bestie, you are all of the above

Loyalty over love, you know that you my other half
Loyalty over love, you know that you my better half
Chose loyalty over love, how I end up with both

Through everything we've been through, you didn't fold

You got a heart of gold, I hope we're still this close
When we 80 years old
Honesty, no secrets, we took an oath
You were 16, I was 18, look at the growth

Pimples are gone and my beard is grown
No one in this world will get our jokes
K is for kind cause you really are
A is for ambitious cause you really are

Y is for the yin and yang that you like
L is for loyal and that shit is tight
E is for extravagant, you know I'm right
The other E is for EAZY cause we always play that

You my best friend in the multiverse
Hope you know that I wouldn't trade you for anything in this world
I chose loyalty over love
You know that you my other half

You my nigga, my homie and my bestie, you are all of the above
Loyalty over love, you know that you my other half
Loyalty over love, you know that you my better half
I'll always choose you

I'll always choose you
I'll always choose you
I said I'll always choose you
