Legacy

[Verse 1: Jay Park]

Yea (GRAY)

I've always been a dream chaser

Shouts to Meek Mill

Since the day I was born, I haven’t been able to sit still

Never weak-willed

Always been real

I risk lookin' soft to avoid situations

Where my homies could get killed

Small-minded petty shit

Somethin' we don’t entertain'

We do somethin' lame

Live and learn

Do it never again

Then we teach game to one another

Because y'all my brothers, my actions reflect y'all

So I never move like a sucker

I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up

I know you’ll catch me, support me and help me get up

Yeah this bullshit’s whatever, I'll show nothin’ but love

Bitches, money, fame, it's cool but it means nothin' above

So let's enjoy it while it lasts

With the smiles and the laughter

Comes sadness, all black, up in front there’s a pastor

To the hoes and the bastards, the trolls and backstabbers

Never too late to change till you up in your casket

Let's get it

[Chorus: Shelby The Singer & Jay Park]

Look up at the sky

Looked down at the earth

I need you, I need you right here

Are you down for the ride?

Right next to me

For this legacy

I need you, I need you right here

For this thing called life

[Verse 2: Jay Park]

Look, growth to me that's all that matters

Life's a game of Shoots and Ladders

Ups and downs okay but I ain't movin' backwards

I don't feed into propaganda

Trying to anger me so I can do some crazy shit

I don't believe it, atheist

They want you riled up until you say, "Fuck the peace"

NFL black listing Kaepernick

'Cause he took a knee, what type of fuck shit is that?

And who do we trust?

Man, I ain't even black

I just think it's unjust

Can't stand up for your beliefs, nah, not in their house

Drastic measures, your family, they'll take food out of their mouth

In this society, it's so easy to lose hope

Just know we got each other

Hold your hand through the smoke

Let's go

This that shit that they don't wanna see

It starts with you and me

Let's go

What you leave behind, use your energy

Yes not just mine or yours man, this our legacy, wassup

[Chorus: Shelby The Singer & Jay Park]

Look up at the sky (Sky)

Looked down at the earth (Earth)

I need you, I need you right here (Oh, I need you right here)

Are you down for the ride (Baby)

Right next to me (Me)

For this legacy (Oh)

I need you, I need you right here

For this thing called life (Ohh ah)

[Bridge: Shelby The Singer]

Who can I lean on when the world is on my shoulders

Baby, I need someone I can build with and grow older

Yea

[Verse 3: Gifted Gab]

Coz life is much cold and people can't uphold us

Since Trump's been in office, it seems that we lost it

Take a look around

Now you seein' what it's cost us

People in positions of power really imposters

Using propaganda for profit

Then politicians put that paper in their back pocket

What's the difference between government and black market

They hate blacks but love the black market

Shooting blacks like we damn targets

That's not progress

The US been a mess

We just got conscious

Look, I'ma preach 'cause it's never too late

We gotta teach fear is a direct descendant of hate

I'm a Moor, so I'm a direct descendant of greats

So when I perform, you listen and I hope you relate

Hey, I got a solid intuition, a lot of ambition

I'm looking at the world through a clear-cut vision

[Outro: Gifted Gab]

We gotta do better

Let's change the way we eat

Let's change the way we live

And let's change the way we treat each other

I talk to Pop like he a friend to me

I gotta do this for my legacy
