Loved Ones
PRhyme feat. Rapsody Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As time goes by, an eye for an eye
We in this together, nigga, your beef is mine
So long as the sunshine should light up the sky
We in this together, nigga, your beef is mine

Man I just saw that nigga out the other day
That's me talkin' to my loved ones
I wouldn't have this shit no other way
That's me sparkin' to my loved ones

As the plot thickens either get rolled on or rocked with it
Make a decision, nigga the clocks tickin'
Feelin' chauvinistic, rollin' with the coldest bitches
And the whip's equipped with cold ignitions
It has just been brought to my attention that the mistress finally went told the missus
Aw shit, Vicious hold this liquor
I got to take this phone call from my shorty trippin'

Uh, I'm dippin' out, keep the car and the house
I get my own shit, shit I kept a separate account
I know the rules in the street or the house
And what I learned, it ain't an equal amount, I see them nigga you 'round
And at loyalty to you go to war to hold them all down
Tell 'em your word is your bond but lie to me how
You respect them niggas way more than me by a mile
I had your child shit, baby I can't figure it out
You cheat on me it's expected, you cheat on them, it's foul
Somehow the codes that live by ain't balancin' out
Cross the line motherfucker, I'll alignin' with vowels
I owe you nothing, fuck your vows
I was your down-ass chick, you let me down
Said your word and your balls was all you had
I learn your word and your ball wasn't always 'round
Shit I know niggas in the bing, you still loyal to
Never snitch, you don't sing, you a lawyer dude
But pillow talk and sing to bitches, is that loyal too?
Tryna figure out when it becomes, "Aw, fuck the rules"
'Cause you a real nigga and that's what real niggas do
Love, none

Money over bitches and hoes, how this shit goes
Even though she givin' a nigga head out of this globe
Keepin' me fair with somethin' more than just bottles of rose
But when you out in the cold you gotta follwow the code
I'm a rider for sure, got my logic and oh's
Apartments is downtown with thousand dollar decor
I'm wilin' out for the dough, though make sure that you never let me out
Always keep me in, I get geeked when we be deep
I feel awkward when we be thin, made of these ingredients
Real nigga and loyalty, my three downfalls is get killed, snitchin', and lawyer fees
Trippin' over quarter keys
Even if shit come up missin' I flip for my forty threes
Death before dishonor just lock me in jail and throw the keys
'Fore I step to your baby mama come on, bro it's me
We just rollin' clutchin' nines, even though it's rumors you've been fuckin' mines
I don't believe 'em, no, I just be tunin' 'em out of my mind and out my vehicle
Just give me some drink and some weed to blow
I ain't naive though, we closed, my nigga we closed
My wife friend got a big old ass
She come around me I put her in the fishbowl fast
I be starin' at her like she a science project
Thinkin' to myself, like gotdamn why I ain't got that

But I'm just busy gettin' money runnin' through these biches with my loved ones
Killin' all these niggas with the quickness for my loved ones
Gettin' it with my loved ones
Splittin' it with my loved ones
Money over bitches never switch and never love none
Gettin' money runnin' through these biches with my loved ones
Killin' all these niggas with the quickness for my loved ones
Gettin' it with my loved onesh




Splittin' it with my loved ones
Fuckin' with these hoes even though we never love none

Tell 'em your word is your bond but lie to me how
If you say you are loyal to me but lie to me, what does that really mean?


You respect them niggas way more than me by a mile
You show more respect and loyalty to others than you do to me


I had your child shit, baby I can't figure it out
I had your child and am struggling to understand why you would betray me


You cheat on me it's expected, you cheat on them, it's foul
If you cheat on me, it's not surprising. If you cheat on others, that is unacceptable.


Somehow the codes that live by ain't balancin' out
The rules and expectations I thought were in place do not match up with reality


Cross the line motherfucker, I'll alignin' with vowels
If you cross me, I will take action and stay true to my principles


I owe you nothing, fuck your vows
I am not obligated to anyone, especially those who have broken their promises to me

I know people who are imprisoned and you are still loyal to them


Never snitch, you don't sing, you a lawyer dude
You do not reveal any information to authorities and are secretive like a lawyer


But pillow talk and sing to bitches, is that loyal too?
Is it still loyal if you share secrets and information with women you are intimate with?


Tryna figure out when it becomes, 'Aw, fuck the rules'
When do people decide to abandon their principles and act without regard for the rules?


'Cause you a real nigga and that's what real niggas do
I assume you are following the actions and behaviors of someone you consider to be a 'real man'


Money over bitches and hoes, how this shit goes
The prioritization of financial gain over relationships with women is common


Even though she givin' a nigga head out of this globe
Despite the fact that she is engaging in sexual acts with someone else


Keepin' me fair with somethin' more than just bottles of rose
She is trying to keep things balanced and not just relying on material gifts


But when you out in the cold you gotta follwow the code
When you are in a difficult situation, you need to stick to the rules and follow the expected path


I'm a rider for sure, got my logic and oh's
I am committed to this lifestyle and have thought through the risks and rewards


Apartments is downtown with thousand dollar decor
I am living in expensive downtown apartments with luxurious features


I'm wilin' out for the dough, though make sure that you never let me out
I am willing to act recklessly for money, so make sure to keep an eye on me


Always keep me in, I get geeked when we be deep
It is better for me to stay close to you, as I am more energized and motivated when with others


I feel awkward when we be thin, made of these ingredients
I am uncomfortable when our group is small, made up of only certain people


Real nigga and loyalty, my three downfalls is get killed, snitchin', and lawyer fees
My commitment to being a 'real man' and loyalty can lead to my downfall, including death, legal troubles, and betraying others


Trippin' over quarter keys
I am worrying about small amounts of drugs and the potential dangers associated with them


Even if shit come up missin' I flip for my forty threes
Even if drugs and money are missing, I will still remain loyal and take action


Death before dishonor just lock me in jail and throw the keys
I would rather die than betray my loyalty and principles


'Fore I step to your baby mama come on, bro it's me
I am not a threat to your girlfriend or wife, you should trust me


We just rollin' clutchin' nines, even though it's rumors you've been fuckin' mines
We are driving around armed, even though there are rumors that you are sleeping with women I know


I don't believe 'em, no, I just be tunin' 'em out of my mind and out my vehicle
I do not believe the rumors, I am ignoring them and trying to move on


Just give me some drink and some weed to blow
I just want to relax and forget about my problems


I ain't naive though, we closed, my nigga we closed
I am not ignorant, and we are very close and trusted friends


My wife friend got a big old ass
The friend of my wife has a large and noticeable rear end


She come around me I put her in the fishbowl fast
I tend to ogle and objectify her when she is near me


I be starin' at her like she a science project
I gaze at her in a way that is dehumanizing and objectifying


Thinkin' to myself, like gotdamn why I ain't got that
I am jealous of her body and wish I had that for myself


But I'm just busy gettin' money runnin' through these biches with my loved ones
Primarily, I am focused on increasing my finances and spending time with my close friends and associates


Killin' all these niggas with the quickness for my loved ones
I am willing to take violent action to protect and support those closest to me


Gettin' it with my loved ones
I am earning wealth and success in partnership with my closest friends and associates


Splittin' it with my loved ones
We share the wealth and benefits of our work equally


Money over bitches never switch and never love none
We prioritize wealth and finances above all else, and do not let emotions get in the way


Fuckin' with these hoes even though we never love none
We engage with women casually and do not form emotional attachments or relationships with them

Man I wish he made a video for this. I can imagine this story set with Royce and Rapsody as a couple in a therapist's office, rapping their verses at the therapist like their complaining about each other.

@princata8676

That Royce's 2nd verse makes me crazy!! Most Underrated MC of all time

@marylandkyle

The bar game was flawless!! Absolute fire and I agree. Book of Ryan showed that by far

@robbinhatchett4179

After that crazy Rapsody verse, Royce had nothing to do but comeback with another verse at the end.

@MasterBrujo

Keep your loved ones close! And rock this on replay
