lirik lagu manus bell – legacy
verse:
when i was young i dreamt of making it big
i use to put on a cape and believe that i was the sh-t
the cape’s been replaced and i’m no longer a kid
now i meditate, probably too medicated to live
but i’m still focused; i got my eye on the goal
i’ve been soul searching, turning any crumble of stone
envisioning the images of me on top of that throne
because i wanted to be something they’d be proud of back home
my mama used to tell me i could be whatever i want
yet i pursued the things i knew they would be proud of me for
but i somehow changed and forgot my ways believing the popular vote
i was chillin’ with however there was, the badder the better, the bigger the blow
never taking it slow, i was always on the go, i mean i had something to show
something to prove, something to grope, yet another mechanism to cope
never followed the tradition to grow, instead of building intuition to know
i was out pursuing la vida loca, the way that i knew to get women and dope
chorus:
i feel the fire in my belly but the p-ssion dries slow
and the heart feels so ready but my brain says it blows
but it’s a cold start
and i try to do my part and make myself feel love
we all wanna stand a part and get a little glow
they all told me to run, act a long for the show
we got so caught up
but it just won’t stop falling, it just won’t stop falling
verse:
typical teen, it was all about masculinity
on top my pedestal shouting ninety-one ‘til infinity
getting drunk, rolling up daily to break the kid in me
epidemic of kids attempting to lose their virginities
we f-cked around to gain credit, looking for ups and downs
committing crime, not for the money but to be tough and loud
b-mp the crowd, everything i did was in an attempt
to shine at any event and keep climbing up out the underground
the world can hear my thunder now
but what the f-ck has changed i mean i can rap and that’s enough for now
but what about, when i wanna settle down, becoming the man of the house?
going out looking for the bigger picture, pulling the trigger to doubt
hesitation equipped only to realize
the real lies to steal eyes all derive from me and i
25 years it took to understand that we die
and revise my plan about the man i thought i’d be i
know now that i’m supposed to be one of the better men
live up to the woman with green eyes i know was heaven-sent
remembering late december in 2011 when
i fell in love for the first time and have been ever since
see our relationships determine what life is
so i’mma focus on the love instead of making it big
brothers over business, at the top of my wish list
show emotional devotion to those who you let in
fake news falsificated my worldview
believing what i’d seen on mtv, i wanted girls too
fast money, fame and acclaim to stay true
but the only one who can provide authentic happiness is you
chorus x2:
i feel the fire in my belly but the p-ssion dries slow
and the heart feels so ready but my brain says it blows
but it’s a cold start
and i try to do my part and make myself feel love
we all wanna stand a part and get a little glow
they all told me to run, act a long for the show
we got so caught up
but it just won’t stop falling, it just won’t stop falling
