{Lil Dap} Uh, see love is stronger then pride Now niggas, open your eyes and swap with you All these niggas think that they fly The sounds from the streets, make my brain and unique And Lil Dap will knock ya dead ass of your feet My legend speaks for itself, from the very ambitious Niggas be dissing, trying to my ass out of prison
Feel what I feel, in the street you know shit is real You know the deal, and natural fact you gotta pack steel But back in the days, you couldn't even act like that You can get slapped, reactin on somebodies lyrics like My legacy is long, like an Acura Live John, just begone Vibin thru the ghetto with bombs Niggas watch out, you heard the horns from Brook-lan But sacrifice my arm just for the game of hip hop To what's your beef? A leader not a follower Check me out, The Legacy baby, no doubt, no doubt, no doubt
Chorus 2X
{Guru} I'm sorry, is all you have to say 'cause your bitch ass can't come back around the way This form of hip hop, drip drops constantly From my mind to the wax, spiritual canetic energy Can't turn me off and on with a leaver I'm too clever, my crew sever, never Rumors said that O.G. was was up, nah I live for ever Born royal blood, The Legacy we trensetters
{Lil Dap} Yo, you know me, me and my East New York representatives Battle with scars, you figured niggas who we are Remember back in the days when the club used to rock Be the shit that strong rhymin, have you shook and amazed 'cause these were the days, you couldn't even lay you with chains Now watch these lanes, try to pick with my brain So check my undertoke, watch you suck that ass up, yo Me and The Nutcracker, and we on the go
Chorus 1.5X
