Kobe Bryant Legacy

I was just a kid when I seen Kobe played
Back in 96 I was blown away
Proud wear a Jersey he was number 8
Its heavy on my heart, but I don't show the pain
I remember you were sitting on that bench
Next to Phil Jackson you Dakotas ever since
If I had to pick Jordan or Kobe
You what it is we repping LA homie (Homie)
You was born in Phily but you one of us
The whole city knows who the Black Mamba was
The year 2000 we got the first parade
We was happy, we forgot the about the murder rate
Everybody in the streets with the Lakers flag
We cherished every moment when you played with Shack (Shack)
2001 NBA finals, you did it once again defeated the rivals (Rivals)

Mobbing with my number 24 jersey
Mobbing with my number 8 jersey, yea
Mobbing with my number 24 jersey
Mobbing with my number 8 jersey, yea
Light it up, uh, yea
Light it up for Kobe Bryant
Light it up, yea
Light it up for Kobe Bryant, yea

Back when I couldn't afford Lakers seats, 2002 was a three peet
Kobe gave us all the love that the streets need
Always made it happen with them big threes
When Shaq left we never doubted you
We was by your side throwing up the W (W)
It didn't matter if we took a loss
You made it happen once you linked up with Pau Gasol
61 points kid nobody see you
Purple and the gold, yeah smashing every season (Season)
All we wanted was an autograph
So Legendary he could do it on a Dodger cap (Cap)
Kobe you forever be a role model (Model)
Tonight we drinking up the whole bottle (Bottle)
I hope we get to see you again
It'll never be the same without you in the gym (Gym)

Mobbing with my number 24 jersey
Mobbing with my number 8 jersey, yea
Mobbing with my number 24 jersey
Mobbing with my number 8 jersey, yea
Light it up, uh, yea
Light it up for Kobe Bryant
Light it up, yea
Light it up for Kobe Bryant, yea
