Must Be Lyrics
Jae5
Man you're guilty, so you’re guilty, by association
Man you're guilty, so you're guilty, by association
Nah you’re guilty, yeah you're guilty, by association
Ah ah ah Ah ah ah yeah
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a opp
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
I've seen a man fucked up, seen a man locked up
Blammed up, chopped up, downtown up top
Man get the gwop up, then man get the drop top
Gyal in the crop top
Man get the thumbs up, cah he got his funds up
Outside non stop
Five man one block, eating out of one pot
We coming like Rambo, who's really on stuff
Homeless Columbo, sitting by the bus stop
Let a couple man go show man tough love
Outside the bando, man had a stand off
The ting had extendo show him how it bangs off
Gyal in commando, she take the pant off
Wish man bare love, show man nuff love
Cool with some got, beef with the rest of
If man slip, get up, dash your self off
Everyone F off, yo
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a opp
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
You laugh with the opps, you smile with the opps
You gon' cry with the opps, make him fly with the opps
You filthy, guilty by association
Put the location in my navigation, It was a invasion
I didn't wanna ride but I had a temptation
Every time I ride there I feel a sensation
Every time I speak it's a money conversation
I try bring you part of the money operation
But it didn't work, cause of miscommunication
Black boys never have no organisation
You don’t know yourself so you look for validation
You a FBI where you get your information
I think he’s an opp but I need a confirmation
I see you with a opp now you need a explanation
But every time I see them it's acceleration
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a opp
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
Man you’re guilty, so you're guilty, by association
Man you're guilty, so you're guilty, by association
Nah you’re guilty, yeah you're guilty, by association
Ah ah ah Ah ah ah yeah
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
If it walk like a opp
Talk like a opp
Smell like a opp
Then it must be a opp
If it look like a opp
Chill with a opp, hang with a opp
Then it must be
Meaning of Must Be
“Must Be” by J Hus is a sharply observed and relentlessly cynical portrait of loyalty, suspicion, and the insidious nature of association within London’s grime scene. The core of the track revolves around the phrase “if it walk like a opp, talk like a opp, smell like a opp, then it must be a,” functioning as a rapid-fire interrogation designed to identify potential threats – not just physical ones, but those rooted in social circles and perceived affiliations. Hus doesn’t simply describe gang culture; he dissects its logic with brutal precision, painting a vivid picture of the paranoia that permeates it. The lyrics are saturated with imagery: “homeless Columbo,” “gyal in the crop top,” and references to "gwop" (money) and “chop up” (violence) – all contributing to a heightened sense of danger and distrust.
Beyond the surface-level descriptions, the song delves into deeper anxieties about belonging and validation. The repeated questioning reveals a profound skepticism towards those who simply ‘walk like’ or ‘talk like’ a certain group, suggesting a fear of contamination by negative influences. The lines about “black boys never have no organisation” and “You a FBI where you get your information” highlight a broader commentary on the lack of structure and potential for exploitation within communities. Ultimately, "Must Be" isn't just an anthem; it’s a chilling exploration of how easily individuals can become implicated in dangerous situations through their connections, fuelled by J Hus’s signature rhythmic intensity and assertive delivery – a stark reminder of the precariousness of navigating environments where loyalty is fluid and suspicion reigns supreme.
