Loyalty is a funny thing


Loyalty is a funny thing 

It comes in many shapes, sizes and color

It's hard to come by 

It's very rare 

When you least expect it 

It comes your way 

However when you need it most 

It's nowhere to be found

Loyalty is like coal

When it's not worked at it stays black and hard

But when pressure is applied it turns in to diamonds

Strong, beautiful, timeless and simple majestic

Loyalty is hard to come by

Make mistakes your coal

Be careful and wise and your a diamond

Be careful be wise 

A diamond in the ruff

Could be the best prize 

But remember just like a diamond 

It's not indestructible 

Loyalty is a funny thing
