Logic – Legacy lyrics

[Verse: Logic]
How do you want to be remembered
Being rich ?
Vision seeing my self as some what different
Reality got me feeling different
I'm lifting the weight of my shoulders
But how older I get (?)
I feel good for nothing
All my glory days but I'm beyond me
I'm folding like origami
My tables turning like interior decorating
Levels like elevators
These haters have me questioning my judgment
Tried by jury of my peers but with a judgment
What will my legacy be
Who will my enemy be
In due time as I write this rhyme
I don't know
Flash before my eyes
And on my deathbed what will I say as I pray
And reminisce another day
I came from nothing a child born in poverty
Went to college to gain knowledge
So they would acknowledge me
Honestly I got a good job
I found a woman and made her my wife
But spent more time at work
So we can have a stable life
And when my son was born
I had to work even harder
Before I knew it my wife was giving birth to my daughter
Went from 40 hours to week 80
Ain't nobody going to pay me but myself
Sacrificing my time and health for wealth
I missed a birthday miss anniversary
There's lots of people in this world that are worse than me
I wasn't there for my son's first words
But he ain't grow up in the hood like me we in the burbs
Sacrifice a couple years he can have all the money when I'm gone
What a fool I was I missed his graduation I miss a wedding day
I didn't even get to give my little girl away but
I paid for the honeymoon, I paid for the honeymoon
I'm not there right now but I will be later
I'm working on something that's greater
That's my legacy
I'm going to be remembered by generations to come
Damb you done
You won't be remembered by your son
To be remembered by generations
You won't be remembered by your son
Nonsense nonsense I said to the man with no money nonsense
Step back who running from me I don't know my own identity
I look in the mirror I ain't clearer
I'm just trying to be free who said it surely ain't me
As I lay on my deathbed I realized I was wrong
I've been the richest man in the world all along
A beautiful family that all I did was just ignore
For financial stability and the fear of being poor
Cuz when I was a child I knew I always wanted more
When I was a child I knew I always
Wanted more, more, more now I got it
Now I'm laying in this bed cancer spreading through my lungs
Looking at my family like damn y'all were the ones
I sacrifice my life 100's 50's 20's 10's 5's and 1's so dumb I give it all if i could do it for my heart again not my wallet
I hate to recall it but it's gone now legacy is gone now
Sacrifice my health for wealth no wasn't worth it
But as I take my last breath I know that I deserved it
Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy
The Legacy that you going to leave behind you forever
Is the blood in your veins wake up daddy now is the time for change and as your child I'm telling you I don't give a damn if we living on change daddy just as long as we live in, just as long as we live in, just as long as we live in daddy, I just want to be happy I don't give a damb if we live in a shoebox
Now my mama going to tell you what you got
I love you, I love you , I love you I want you I need you I'm craving
Why you throw away this pussy that I gave you
Why you fucking around behind my back
While I'm at home raising my children
Feel like a single mother even though a ring on it
Supposed to be like husband and wife more like my opponent
Finger fucking myself because fucking fidelity
I rather look in the mirror be happy who I see
Sometimes I want to take my babies and go to my mama's crib
Can I live can I have a life away from my life
Be the woman that would have been if I wasn't your wife
You know I love them but if that test wasn't positive
I would have had a lot to give
Sometimes I want to divorce your ass and take half motherfucker
But I stay cuz I love these children I love you deep down that's why I stick around
You never there because you just want to be the best
You just want to make this money
Come get this pussy motherfucker
Come get this pussy and love your children fuck your legacy fuck it
Float in the abyss of nothingness my consciousness remembers life before it hits black I wish I could get back and realize that this is all
Shit just a Daydream and there's only like four of us in a tour bus and I'm in the back how about that think about my legacy
And as how as we human being sacrifice helpful money ain't It funny cousin then we spent all our money repairing our body in mind when we really should have just spent time fuck a legacy I'm just going to live my life peace
