Legacy

Tell me where to go, tell me what to do

I’ll be right there for you

Tell me what to say, don’t matter if it’s true

I’ll say it all for you

I used to be the type of kid that would always think the sky is falling

Why am I so differently wired? Am I a martian?

What kind of twisted experiment am I involved in?

Cause I don't belong in this world

That’s why I’m scolfing at authority defiant often

Flying off at the handle with my mom, no dad

So I am non-compliant at home, at school I'm just shy and awkward

And I don't need no goddamn psychologist

Trying to diagnose why I have all these underlying problems

Thinking he can try and solve 'em

I'm outside chalking up drawings on the sidewalk

And in the front drive talking to myself

Either that or inside hiding off in the corner somewhere quiet

Trying not to be noticed cause I'm crying and sobbing

I had a bad day at school so I ain't talking

Some cocksucker shoved me into a fucking locker

Cause he said that I eyeballed him

And if you fall, I’ll catch you there

I’ll be your savior from all the wars that are fought inside your world

Please, have faith in my words

Cause this is my legacy, legacy

This is my legacy, legacy

There's no guarantee, it's not up to me, we can only see

This is my legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy

I used to be the type of kid that would always think the sky is falling

Why am I so differently wired in my noggin?

Cause sporadic as my thoughts come, it’s mind boggling

Cause I obsess on everything in my mind, small shit bothers me

But not my father, he said sayonara, then split, but I don’t give a shit

I'm fine long as there's batteries in my Walkman, nothing's the matter with me

Shit look on the bright side at least I ain’t walking

I bike ride through the neighborhood of my apartment complex on a ten speed

Which I’ve acquired parts that I find in the garbage, a frame then put tires on it

Headphones on, I look straight ahead if kids try and start shit

But if this is all there is for me, life offers

Why bother even tryin to put up a fight? It’s nonsense

But I think a light bulb just lit up in my conscience

What about them rhymes I’ve been jotting, they're kinda giving me confidence

Instead of trying to escape through my comics

Why don’t I just blast a little something, like Onyx

To put me in the mood to wanna fight and write songs

That say what I wanna say to that kid that said that I eyeballed him

Grab hold of my balls like that’s right, fight’s on bitch

Who woulda’ knew from the moment I turned on the mic on

That I could be iconic, in my conquest

That’s word to Phife Dog from A Tribe Called Quest

This is my legacy, legacy

This is my legacy, legacy

There's no guarantee, it's not up to me, we can only see

This is my legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy

I used to be the type of kid that, would always think the sky is falling

Now I think the fact that I’m differently wired’s awesome

Cause if I wasn’t I wouldn’t be able to work words like this

And connect lines like crosswords

And use my enemy’s words as strength

To try and draw from, and get inspired off ‘em

Cause all my life I was told and taught I am not shit

By you wack fucking giant sacks of lying dog shit

Now you shut up bitch, I am talking

Thought I was full of horse shit

And now you fucking worship the ground on which I am walking

Me against the world, so what? I'm Brian Dawkins

Versus the whole 0-16 Lions offense

So bring on the Giants, Falcons and Miami Dolphins

It's the body bag game, bitch, I'm supplying coffins

Cause you dicks butt kiss, bunch of Brian Baldingers

You're going to die a ball licker, I've been diabolical

With this dialogue since '99 Rawkus

You don't respect the legacy I leave behind y'all can suck a dick

The day you beat me, pigs'll fly out my ass

In a flying saucer full of Italian sausage

The most high exalting and I ain't halting

'Til I die of exhaustion, inhale my exhaust fumes

The best part about me is I am not you

I'm me, I'm the Fire Marshall and this is my...

This is my legacy, legacy

This is my legacy, legacy

There's no guarantee, it's not up to me, we can only see

This is my legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
