[00:08.16] How do you want to be remembered?
[00:15.29] Being rich?
[00:21.39] Visions of seeing my self as some what different
[00:24.14] Reality got me feeling indifferent
[00:25.67] I'm lifting this weight of my shoulders
[00:27.36] But how older I get
[00:28.40] I reload the clip and sip on something
[00:30.34] I feel good for nothing
[00:31.30] All my glory days behind me or beyond me
[00:33.50] I'm folding like origami
[00:34.82] My tables turning like interior decorating
[00:37.26] Levels like elevators
[00:38.49] These haters got me questioning my judgement
[00:40.71] Tried by jury of my peers but with a judgement
[00:43.33] What will my legacy be?
[00:44.99] Who will my enemy be?
[00:46.22] In due time as I write this rhyme
[00:48.50] I don't know
[00:49.10] Flash before my eyes
[00:51.50] And on my deathbed what will I say as I pray
[00:56.49] And reminisce of another day
[00:58.19] I came from nothing, a child born in poverty
[01:01.01] Went to college to gain knowledge
[01:02.50] So they would acknowledge me
[01:03.75] Honestly I got a good job
[01:05.31] I found a woman made her my wife
[01:07.06] But spent more time at work
[01:08.92] So we could have a stable life
[01:10.42] And when my son was born
[01:11.52] I had to work even harder
[01:12.98] Before I knew it my wife was giving birth to my daughter
[01:15.75] Went from 40 hours a week to 80
[01:17.86] Ain't nobody going pay me but myself
[01:19.77] Sacrificing my time and my health for wealth
[01:22.32] I missed a birthday, miss a anniversary
[01:24.78] There's lots of people in this world that are worse than me
[01:27.30] I wasn't there for my son's first words
[01:29.75] But he ain't grow up in the hood like me we in the burbs
[01:32.85] Sacrifice a couple years
[01:34.27] He can have all the money when I'm gone
[01:36.91] What a fool I was I missed his graduation
[01:39.93] I missed her a wedding day
[01:41.27] I didn't even get to give my little girl a way but
[01:44.12] I paid for the honeymoon, yeah, I paid for the honeymoon
[01:48.72] I'm not there right now but I will be later
[01:51.62] I'm working on something that's greater
[01:55.42] That's my legacy
[01:59.30] I'm going to be remembered by generations to come
[02:02.57] Damn, you dumb
[02:05.11] You won't be remembered by your son
[02:08.04] To be remembered by generations to come
[02:11.96] You a fool
[02:12.68] You won't be remembered by your son
[02:14.20] Nonsense, nonsense
[02:15.69] I said to the man with no money, nonsense
[02:18.83] Step back who running from me I don't know my own identity
[02:24.41] I look in the mirror I ain't clearer
[02:27.51] I'm just trying to be free, who is that, it surely ain't me
[02:31.32] As I lay on my deathbed I realized I was wrong
[02:35.04] I have been the richest man in the world all along
[02:38.15] A beautiful family that all I did was ignore
[02:40.94] For financial stability and the fear of being poor
[02:43.67] 'Cause when I was a child knew I always wanted more
[02:46.31] When I was a child knew I always
[02:48.17] Wanted more, more, more
[02:50.79] Now I got it
[02:52.48] Now I'm laying in this bed cancer spreading through my lungs
[02:56.23] Looking at my family like damn y'all were the ones
[02:58.97] I sacrifice my life for 100's 50's 20's 10's 5's
[03:01.96] And 1's so dumb I give it all
[03:04.02] If I could do it for my heart again not my wallet
[03:08.14] I hate to recall it but it's gone now legacy is gone now
[03:14.38] Sacrifice my health for wealth no it wasn't worth it
[03:18.86] But as I take my last breath I know that I deserved it
[03:21.67] Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy
[03:27.03] The Legacy you going to leave behind you forever
[03:29.23] Is the blood in your veins wake up daddy now
[03:31.57] Is the time for change and as your child
[03:33.69] I'm telling you I don't give a damn
[03:35.35] If we living on change daddy just as long as we live in,
[03:38.95] Just as long as we live in daddy,
[03:41.78] I just want to be happy
[03:44.17] I don't give a damn if we live in a shoebox
[03:46.09] Now my mama going to tell you what you got
[03:48.63] I love you, I love you,
[03:50.07] I love you I want you I need you I crave you
[03:51.94] Why you throw away this ***** that I gave you
[03:54.51] Why you ******* around behind my back
[03:56.87] While I'm home raising my children
[03:58.50] Feel like a single mother even though a ring up on it
[04:01.22] Supposed to be like husband
[04:02.58] And wife you more like my opponent
[04:04.24] Finger ******* myself because ******* fidelity
[04:06.59] I'd rather look in the mirror be happy who I see
[04:09.54] Sometimes I want to take my babies and go to my mama crib
[04:12.76] Can I live?
[04:14.38] Can I have a life away from my life
[04:16.79] Be the woman that I would have been if I wasn't your wife
[04:20.22] You know I love them but if that test wasn't positive
[04:24.59] I would have had a lot to give
[04:26.28] Sometimes I want to divorce your ass and take half, ************
[04:31.76] But I stay 'cause I love these children
[04:35.02] And I love you deep down, that's why I stick around, but
[04:38.33] You never there because you just want to be the best
[04:41.87] You just want to make this money
[04:43.39] Come get this ***** ************
[04:46.45] Come get this ***** and love your children
[04:50.52] **** your legacy
[04:52.68] **** it
[04:54.72] Float in the abyss of nothingness my consciousness
[04:57.00] Remembers a life before it hits black
[04:58.55] I wish I could get back and then I realize that
[05:01.30] All this s**t is just a daydream
[05:02.99] And there's only like four of us in a tour bus
[05:05.37] And I'm in the back, how about that?
[05:06.77] Think about my legacy
[05:08.56] And as how we as human beings sacrifice help for money
[05:12.08] Ain't it funny?
[05:12.79] 'Cause in the end we spent all our money
[05:15.09] On repairing our body and mind
[05:17.04] When we really should have just spent time
[05:22.64] **** a legacy
[05:25.01] I'mma go live my life
[05:26.86] Peace
