Living the Legacy

My father knew it
And his before him
And it goes way back down the line
They had a vision
A prayer for the future
For what I would believe in time
Now I'm not perfect
Life's not easy
But I wouldn't take the world for what they gave to me
I'm living the legacy
Walking the path that the faithful have laid down
I'm living the legacy
Finding the hope that my fathers found
I am standing tall
When I'm on my knees
I'm living the legacy
Something in common
Deep inside me
With those before me who are gone
It gives me the vision
Fills me with passion
To make the message carry on
Lord, I'm not perfect
Life's not easy
But for the future's sake
I'm gonna do the best I can
I'm living the legacy
Walking the path that the faithful ones have paved
I'm living the legacy
Giving the hope that my fathers gave
I am standing tall
When I'm on my knees
I'm living the legacy
I'm living the legacy
Walking the path that the faithful have laid down
I'm living the legacy
I'm finding the hope that my fathers found
I am standing tall
When I'm on my knees
I'm living the legacy
