Legacy Lyrics by Reel Wolf

The Underworld 2

2016

[Verse 1: ILL BILL]
What's the true meaning of legacy? It's what you leave behind after you're gone
If you love somebody, write 'em a song
Name your label after them, build colossal pyramids in they honor
Paint Michelangelos for your mama, thank you for birthing life
Tattoo the Earth with a knife
Thank you, Howie, yeah, I learned from the trife
I'm part of his legacy, some would describe it as treachery
But I cherish those lessons until the death of me
I'm the future, I'm Grandma's childhood dreams, a legacy her essence
Every time I spit a rhyme I feel her presence
I'm a father now, my daughter's continuation of me
My legacy will be, I taught her to be, greater than me
Make my mark on this planet, engrave it in pure granite
Start a legendary Exodus like Kirk Hammett
Or Moses the Hebrew, or like the Pope in the cathedral
Even after we gone we still feed you
[Chorus: Salome]
What you leave behind determines who you were in life
What you leave behind decides if you wanna lose this fight
You were stronger than me, but I'm more than you believe
So before you go, gonna leave a legacy
[Verse 2: Sean Strange]
Yo, when I'm gone, will you remember me and carry on my legacy?
I'm bred to be a legend like my father
And your memory I'll carry 'til the day that I die
I can't believe I'm looking at your coffin now, and I'm waving goodbye (Damn!)
At the wake I play the Coltrane record and try to keep the faith
You told me keep on going even when people hate
Do you believe in fate? 'Cause when you died I felt that it was your way of telling me that I need a break
Now take a look at my career and the way I'm rappin'
With no manager or agent I made it happen (Real!)
I've been around the world more than you've been around your block
I used to be the one you thought would fail, homie, but now I'm not
I dropped an album with an icon, a pioneer
And all the fam I have reminded me why I am here
I find the fear in my heart and turn it to domination
Of anything in my way, I made it my obligation
[Chorus: Salome]
What you leave behind determines who you were in life
What you leave behind decides if you wanna lose this fight
You were stronger than me, but I'm more than you believe
So before you go, gonna leave a legacy
