(Legacy)

I can see the future

(Legacy)

I know who I am

(Legacy)

I think I can feel my

(Legacy)

Lega-lega-legacy

Legacy, is when you need no introductions

You walk in the room and everybody start buzzin'

Legacy, when your reputation precedes you

Little kids grow up, they wanna be you

Legacy in when you silent but your presence felt

The product like drugs 'cause it sell itself

Yeah, you survived many disasters

And now they hang your jersey from the rafters

And see these jokers gettin' greedier?

Gotta hit the road when the locals don't believe in ya

My music in museums is timeless as Mona Lisa, bruh

A legacy artist, I don't need social media

So when you see me online I'm havin' fun, trust

Unjust situations make me wanna gun-bust

But I'm a man of peace and so I plan to be poetic

With my words to help curb and understand the beast

We keep it all love in the nightclub

They wanna turn the nightclub into the fight club

My life's blood runs deeper than a knife cut

This the crack that the dope boys slice up

My lyrics sound scary to the corporate sellers

I'm like '97 Rockafella but more Griselda

My observations make your heart stop like organ failure

So they think that I could see the future like a fortune teller

(Legacy)

I can see the future

(Legacy)

I know who I am

(Legacy)

I think I can feel my

(Legacy)

Lega-lega-legacy

Heat-check, deep breath

I give all my love to ya, baby, Keith Sweat

Gimme more 20 more miles, I don't need rest

I'm half way to goals I haven't even dreamed yet

And I don't need money, I need faith

People thinking that I'm some sort of DJ

But I'm a poet and a man and a troubadour

I'm divine light hidden in a human form

It doesn't matter what you do, it's what you do it for

There are some places that you can't take an Uber toward

Love people, keep a brave heart

Don't make guns, make art

I got Sequoia trees cheerin' me on

Where ever I am is where I belong

Some of my fam' is buried and gone

I'm tryna learn more things I can share in my songs

Like life is a curtain that hides the divine

You can peak behind that when you quiet the mind

I rely on something that's stronger than me

And all my songs will live much longer than me

That's

(Legacy)

I can see the future

(Legacy)

I know who I am

(Legacy)

I think I can feel my

(Legacy)
