Legacy
They doubted my vision
But now I'm a force to be reckoned with
Who would've thought it now
Staying up late, I'd navigate
Through the mess that I made, why you passing out
Carry the weight of living to build me a legacy
Wanting that solid ground
Standing on top of them hills
One hand on the wheel, the other is writing down
Personal thought, each word that I jot is admired now
Each record I drop is a step to the surface
Of writing in cursive on higher ground
New circle of friends, or even if all my friends are trying to lie about it
Whether or not I'm truly supported or if it's a bit of a run around it
I'm not the one they should care about
Whether they like what I'm doing now
If you don't like me that's fine by my psyche
I'm tough as the nails they be slamming down
My actions are metal, meddle with me
And the barrel go straight to yo temple, loud as a kettle
With every shot that I rang
I aim for the head of the devil now he's a puddle
That puddle is blood red, red rum, I know I'm guilty of said gun
But I'd rather kill every demon inside
Than let 'em deceive me with their tongues
Tired of fighting the same things, I'm flying away in a paper plane
In need of protection from wind
A shelter from rain and all of what's in between
I'm tired of reaching for all my vices
I need some love and some good advice
Whenever it's cold and I feel alone, like nobody cares if I live or die
That ain't the truth but every time I'm in it
It's harder to prove, I've crafted a noose
Whenever I feel like the sadness has taken root
Deliver me swiftly before I choose
To loosen the grip it has on my neck, unfasten the rope so it slip
Falling through knots that I tied it with
I'm happy I broke it apart instead
I want to live and grow old, retire rich
So I get to see to the family biz
And they get to know that I'll never quit, I never quit
They doubted my vision
But now I'm a force to be reckoned with
Who would've thought it now
Staying up late, I'd navigate
Through the mess that I made, why you passing out
Carry the weight of living to build me a legacy
Wanting that solid ground
Standing on top of them hills
One hand on the wheel, the other is writing down
I can not leave what I want, I see what I want, build me a legacy
If it's appealing to God, grow what I've got, a leg up on blessing me
I cannot stop my new energy, you're all I've wanted, jealously
I will not leave it to chance, you humble my enemies
But now I'm a force to be reckoned with
Who would've thought it now
Staying up late, I'd navigate
Through the mess that I made, why you passing out
Carry the weight of living to build me a legacy
Wanting that solid ground
Standing on top of them hills
One hand on the wheel, the other is writing down
Personal thought, each word that I jot is admired now
Each record I drop is a step to the surface
Of writing in cursive on higher ground
