Legacy Lyrics by Ryan Laird

2023

My body don’t make the man I am
It’s a vessel I use to conduct my plans
Cause I’m a spirit you know it’s true
We all are deep down we’re bulletproof
Ooh Ooh Ooh

The more I want the harder I try
The harder I try the less I fly
My hearts been broke my ego bruised
It’s all my fault but I’ll blame you
Ooh Ooh Ooh

Everyone has got the chance to be
Whatever we make our own history
And when it’s time to leave
We leave our legacy

Sometimes we kneel sometimes we break
Life ain’t always a piece of cake
We’re all fighting a war within
Everybody’s plagued by sin
Ooh Ooh Ooh

But what matters most is where we go from here
Will you rise above or disappear?
Cause when it is all said and done
We go back to where we begun
Ooh Ooh Ooh

Everyone has got the chance to be
Whatever we make our own history
And when it’s time to leave
We leave our legacy

If you’re ever sitting at a crossroads
If you can’t decide which way to go
Look deep down inside yourself
For answers only you can tell
Ooh Ooh Ooh

Life is like a melody
With ups and downs and harmony
Ooh I’ve fucked up a time or two
Even I don’t always sing in tune
Ooh Ooh Ooh

Everyone has got the chance to be
Whatever we make our own history
I have only really ever wanted peace
I’m a student of philosophy
I want the very best for you for me
For eternity
When it’s my time to leave
Make that my legacy
