LEGENDARY

[Intro: Joey Bada$$ & J. Cole] Yeah, uh Yeah Yeah, uh Yeah [Verse 1: Joey Bada$$] This is legendary Always been my mission, never secondary Gettin' better every January, it's very scary They gon' recognize eventually, I take it if they don't give it to me Swear all of it was written for me (yep, yep) By a higher conscious spiritually (up, up) Up and away, jump on a plane, get on my wave right now I want you believe not only in me, but have some faith in yourself I wish you peace and good health, happiness and some wealth I threw a coin in the well, 'cause I was feelin' so well A token of how I felt, never heard if it fell Not a noise, not a sound, still no reason to doubt Quality what I sell, quantity in the sales Quantum physics myself, count a million atoms of cells This life I'm livin' it out, damn right, my vision is now Don't let the prisoner cell build a strut to break out My brothers at the brick house, the undercovers stakeout Can't you see it's a trap? The type of shit I think 'bout I sensed they needed my help, that's why I had to reach out What you think I do it for? My brothers under a spell It's clear we livin' in hell, the life of a black male Right out the womb, you come out, and it's a bunch of blackmail Just waitin' for you to fail, a special room in the jail With your name, a number on it so you property now I see it properly now, it's what the poverty 'bout It's all a game of Monopoly, tryna cop me a house An elephant in the room until I fit in my tomb And introduced to my doom, they say the end comin' soon [Chorus: Joey Bada$$] Legends, they never die The niggas only multiply So put your fire up in the sky 'Cause they won't ever kill the light They say the legends, they never die The niggas only multiply So put your fire up in the sky 'Cause they won't ever kill the light [Bridge: Joey Bada$$] Tables keep turning, which way do I go? A fire's burning inside of my soul Tables keep turning, which way do I go? A fire's burning inside my control [Verse 2: J. Cole] Look, ready for whatever comes I hope for the best, I taste the peace and pray it never leave my tongue But yet, before long, the feelings done Perhaps I was foolish, just like the boy that prays to only see the sun Maybe, life happens like tides One minute you're low and feelin' shallow, then all of a sudden you rise Just, ride the wave, I say to myself Find a way, the weight of my wealth It's honestly a lot to bear I play the game of stackin' knowin' that I ought to share How much does a man need? How much can he hoard before his greed? How can a rich father teach humbleness to his seed? Just questions, the stubborn all get taught tough lessons I look at all I got like, "What's missin'?" God is my only guess, 'cause yes, faith relieve the stress I find peace again when I find Him and see I'm blessed Real blessed, life has always got me wonderin' (Wondering, wondering) Am I doin' it right? Am I hurtin' myself? Am I wrongin' the ones that love me the most? What a burden to have That ain't no way to live Or maybe it is Well, maybe it is [Bridge: Joey Bada$$] Tables keep turning, which way do I go? A fire's burning inside of my soul Tables keep turning, which way do I go? A fire's burning inside my control [Chorus: Joey Bada$$] Legends, they never die The niggas only multiply So put your fire up in sky 'Cause they won't ever kill the light They say the legends, they never die The niggas only multiply So put your fire up in sky 'Cause they won't ever kill the light [Outro: Joey Bada$$] This is legendary, it's never secondary I'm getting better every January The idea of it alone is very scary I kill my enemies by any means necessary I said, this is legendary, it's never secondary Getting better every January The idea of it alone is very scary I kill my enemies by any means necessary
