Legend
[Intro: J. Cole & ScHoolboy Q]
Watch out..You have to watch out for them legends
Hell yeah man, when I came in rap, all I wanted was #1 albums, Platinum single or something and shit, that's all I ever wanted
You know, Nobody's gonna make room. You have to earn everything you get, You know what I mean? Nobodies going to stamp you a legend if you not doing anything that's legendary
[Verse 1: King Ritchey]
Speak of the devil, I'm 'bout as ill as a legend
Ain't no Illuminati shit so call up the reverend
Call up for Jesus, Yeah, Call up for heaven
Call up the God and let him know that I'm destined
Call up the record co's and put them tapes on the table
I'm fighting for my vision like we've never had cable
I'm fighting for my story so let me tell you my fable
My dreams are enabled, I'ma spit some verses to save you
I'm tryna be like Ali, box my way out the ring
I ain't no DJ Khaled but I got the fucking keys
To open my mind, you can find what's inside
I'm speaking my mind, there ain't no way I can't shine
I'm the king so I got the throne, so hand me the crown
I'm sorta like a threesome, I quit fucking around
I'm running this track like I'm Usain Bolt
This that legendary shit, I'm climbing up just like a rope
[Hook 1: Brando]
I'm just tryna be a legend, what the fuck you n***as mean?
And I can be anything I really wanna be
Mama said "Be patient baby, Let 'em be mad and keep hatin'"
I don't really got no time for these n***as
My life a motion picture, screaming "action" I'ma get it
Tryna be like Ali
And rewrite history
[Verse 2: Supah Sophisticated]
Last name not Mill but I'm dream chasing
Was sipping on some henny, now my mind racing
Lyrically, you not on my level
Spit it so acidic so I burn worser you than the devil
What you tripping over, You losing your mind
You're Mentally slipping over I remember nights when
I released my soul through a pad and pen
All started with a verse
Jesus by my side at my best and at my worst
Mama said "Son, what you want to be?"
Told her "I want to go down in black history."
J. Cole my inspiration, He never been a lair
When it comes to truth, I'm the #1 supplier
You felt my pain, My emotions went down the drain
This music is my soul, I love to entertain
Mama said "Son, what you wanna be?"
I'm a legend in the making and soon you all with see...
[Hook 2: Supah Sophisticated]
Mama said "Son, What you wanna be?"
I told her I wanna go down in history
Mama said "Son, What you wanna be?"
I told her I wanna go down in history
Mama said "Son, What you wanna be?"
I told her I wanna go down in history
Mama said "Son, What you wanna be?"
I told her I wanna go down in history
Mama said "Son, What you wanna be?"
I told her I wanna go down in history
[Outro: Supah Sophisticated]
You know one day, man, we gonna rule the city
'Cause Imma be a legend...
Watch out..You have to watch out for them legends
Hell yeah man, when I came in rap, all I wanted was #1 albums, Platinum single or something and shit, that's all I ever wanted
You know, Nobody's gonna make room. You have to earn everything you get, You know what I mean? Nobodies going to stamp you a legend if you not doing anything that's legendary
