Legacy


Rising to the top 

Gaining that notoriety

Creating a new Legacy

Let things flow from inside of me 

I pulled off that mamba mentality 

Giving myself that constant push to be better than yesterday 

To get that something that can take me farther than the hood 

When y’all think of me 

think Incredible, Astonishing, amazing

Because of the way I start blazing through these business deals

Proving you can rise above the racist ordeals

Don’t have to do drugs or pop pills

I wasn’t my environment just a product

Next up

That life without fear

As a father wit a child I hold dear

That gonna be pushed over the top

Looking over my life you’ll see what I accomplished

Love, loyalty, Money and projects

Time to open up the next chapter to see what’s next

As the Legacy continues
