[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Yo, are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
Caught up in deceit, man, it's feeling painful.
Trusting a snake while theyre frontin' with a smile,
Got me second-guessing everything for a while.
Damn, these fools are unfaithful, no honesty,
Lies run deep, but they claim theyre family.
Flossin like kings, but its all just a mask,
Reality bites, gotta rise to the task.
[Chorus]
Beef in the castle, yeah, watch who you roll with,
Fake love around, got me feeling so caged in.
Got that anger burnin, cant trust a soul,
At the round table, you either break or youll fold.
[Verse 2]
Regret hits hard, but Im still on my grind,
Stressed out, but Im focused, Im one of a kind.
Under-dog status, yeah, Im climbing the ranks,
While haters throw shade, Im filling up the tanks.
Mistrust in the air, cant breathe in this strife,
But Im packing my bags for a better life.
Wanna turnt up, got the motive to rise,
Chasing after dreams while theyre stuck in their lies.
[Chorus]
Beef in the castle, yeah, watch who you roll with,
Fake love around, got me feeling so caged in.
Got that anger burnin, cant trust a soul,
At the round table, you either break or youll fold.
Are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Yo, emptiness lurks when youre counting the frauds,
Lifes a bitch sometimes, but Im breaking the odds.
Comeback at breakfast, Im ready to feast,
Got my eyes on the prize, Ill never be ceased.
[Verse 3]
Overwhelmed with the weight of it all,
Bitter from the past, but Im ready to ball.
Sadness creeps in, but Ill fight through the pain,
Cursed with the vision, yeah, Im losing my brain.
Anxious for the moment, Im seizing the time,
Motivated by gold, aint no mountain too high.
Fearful of the fall, but Im ready to leap,
Angry at the fakes while Im chasing my dreams.
[Chorus]
Beef in the castle, yeah, watch who you roll with,
Fake love around, got me feeling so caged in.
Got that anger burnin, cant trust a soul,
At the round table, you either break or youll fold.
Are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
So are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
In this life of deceit, gotta stay ungrateful.
Truth over lies, thats the code that I keep,
In a world full of fakes, Im the one whos elite.
[Outro]
Im not the only one here,
Got my eyes on the gold,
Oh yeah, Woah no,
Im gonna win, not be outsold!
Are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
So are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
Yo, are you a traitor, or are you faithful?
Man, are you a traitor, or are you....faithful?
[End]
