[00:00.50]Composed by:Mike Posner/Nate Mercereau/Talib Kweli Greene
[00:00.76]Mike Posner:
[00:10.42]Legacy
[00:12.96]I can see the future
[00:15.46]Legacy
[00:17.94]I know who I am
[00:20.36]Legacy
[00:22.96]I think I can feel my
[00:25.15]Legacy
[00:26.68]Lega-lega-legacy
[00:30.58]Talib Kweli:
[00:30.94]Legacy is when you need no introductions
[00:33.23]You walk in the room and everybody start buzzin'
[00:35.53]Legacy when your reputation precedes you
[00:38.22]Little kids grow up they wanna be you
[00:40.58]Legacy in when you silent but your presence felt
[00:43.58]The product like d**gs 'cause it sell itself
[00:45.79]Yeah you survived many disasters
[00:48.53]And now they hang your jersey from the rafters
[00:51.34]And see these jokers gettin' greedier
[00:53.09]Gotta hit the road when the locals don't believe in ya
[00:55.45]My music in museums is timeless as Mona Lisa bruh
[00:57.91]A legacy artist I don't need social media
[01:00.75]So when you see me online I'm havin' fun trust
[01:03.07]Unjust situations make me wanna gun-bust
[01:05.69]But I'm a man of peace and so I plan to be poetic
[01:08.42]With my words to help curb and understand the beast
[01:11.01]We keep it all love in the nightclub
[01:13.21]They wanna turn the nightclub into the fight club
[01:15.51]My life's blood runs deeper than a knife cut
[01:18.13]This the crack that the d**e boys slice up
[01:20.90]My lyrics sound scary to the corporate sellers
[01:23.23]I'm like '97 Rockafella but more Griselda
[01:25.79]My observations make your heart stop like organ failure
[01:28.07]So they think that I could see the future like a fortune teller
[01:30.29]Mike Posner:
[01:30.54]Legacy
[01:32.94]I can see the future
[01:35.24]Legacy
[01:37.82]I know who I am
[01:40.28]Legacy
[01:42.80]I think I can feel my
[01:45.24]Legacy
[01:46.49]Lega-lega-legacy
[01:50.57]Mike Posner:
[01:51.08]Heat-check deep breath
[01:53.29]I give all my love to ya baby Keith Sweat
[01:55.69]Gimme 20 more miles I don't need rest
[01:58.13]I'm half way to goals I haven't even dreamed yet
[02:00.65]And I don't need money I need faith
[02:03.21]People thinking that I'm some sort of DJ
[02:05.63]But I'm a poet and a man and a troubadour
[02:08.19]I'm divine light hidden in a human form
[02:10.70]It doesn't matter what you do it's what you do it for
[02:13.01]There are some places that you can't take an Uber toward
[02:15.62]Love people keep a brave heart
[02:18.14]Don't make guns make art
[02:20.68]I got Sequoia trees cheerin' me on
[02:22.77]Where ever I am is where I belong
[02:25.27]Some of my fam' is buried and gone
[02:27.43]I'm tryna learn more things I can share in my songs
[02:30.10]Like life is a curtain that hides the divine
[02:32.62]You can peak behind that when you quiet the mind
[02:35.14]I rely on something that's stronger than me
[02:37.75]And all my songs will live much longer than me
[02:40.00]That's
[02:40.44]Legacy
[02:42.88]I can see the future
[02:45.22]Legacy
[02:47.90]I know who I am
[02:50.28]Legacy
[02:52.82]I think I can feel my
[02:55.18]Legacy
[02:56.75]Lega-lega-legacy
