[Intro]
I just want to leave a legacy
What will everybody say when they remember me?
I just want to leave a legacy
I just want to leave a legacy

[Verse 1]
Spending nights wondering who I'm gonna be here
Living life tryna come up on the dream here
Going out on the limb like a tree here
Really tryna make a change but I see we're
All in a cycle living life to please the other man
Put you down if you can't do it like another can
If you sell your soul for money you can run the land
But the price you pay for that you'll never understand
You know I've seen it, the angels fighting the demons
The bankers fighting the leasers
Gang bangers and white policemen
On Facebook delivering beatings
While claiming improper treatment
The government getting bigger while
Freedom's slowly decreasing I mean
We gave it up for something free
We're stuck perpetually
Repaying funds and debt to these
Officials taking checks for things
And as of late it's stressing me
When people check for me
I wonder how will they remember me
And what will be my legacy ?
[Hook]
I just wanna leave a legacy
What will everybody say when they remember me?
I just wanna be the man that I was meant to be
Take the chains off all the prisoners and set em free
I just wanna leave a legacy
What will everybody say when they remember me?
If I'm there with you before you die
Will you thank the Lord you got to share that breath with me?

[Verse 2]
I've got a lot of goals that they can't match
I've got a lot of flows that they can't tap
I'm working 2 every week on top of that I'm tryna make it in rap
And after that I'm gone be running for office and that's fact
Living life trying hard to be a leader and a role model
In a world that is so hostile passing on the coke
Bottles out of respect for my homies in the can
Who chose a life they can't get undo without a second chance
And kids going through pain but they keep it inside
And you would never know unless you took a second glance
Families going through change fighting bitterness and hate
'Cuz the fairy tale don't ever go as planned
But I'm tryna be a voice to bring them home
And show em all that they are not alone
817-771-3141
If you ever need a friend you can hit my phone
And that's real
[Hook]
I just wanna leave a legacy
What will everybody say when they remember me?
I just wanna be the man that I was meant to be
Take the chains off all the prisoners and set em free
I just wanna leave a legacy
What will everybody say when they remember me?
If I'm there with you before you die
Will you thank the Lord you got to share that breath with me?
