[Hook]
Legend has it, I'm not always telling the truth
If you look in the eyes of the legend, what would you do?
You don't believe in the stories, won't you come fill my shoes. (×2)
[Verse 1: Brandon Carter]
I'm known for my arrogance, I tend to hostile
I'm full of neglect, yet shut down into denial
Meanwhile, I'm lost like I'm senile
I see now, I've forgotten who I be now
I've really become an example of possum
I'm full of it all cause I hide from other optics
Yet, who am I really talkin' bout?
(Ooh, this made a plot twist.)
You lookin' like you've seen the face of a ghost
That's cause I'm back!
I've come for the roots of the forest, I seem so harming
Thing is it wasn't a threat, it's just a promise
Which one of y'all do I come for next, how bout' all ya?!
I'm more than what mankind can handle
I'm breaking down generations by handful
They've really sold my stories, it's time to stop them
You can leave my fossils, bones, - back at my coffin
Step off your throne!
You know who it's meant for
Eyes of man beast, blood of a minotaur

[Verse 2: Brandon Carter]
I'm a living legend, I guess I'm not exactly what you've expected
I'm more and nothing less than
You've heard about me, but I've learned your methods
I'm not to be reckoned with, you can't smooth my edges
This chip on my shoulder won't fall, accept it
I was past, will be the future, I'm present
Be careful when you mention my name
I only strengthen
I live up to the hype, I'm all aggression
If y'all afraid of heights, take "Rise" as exception
I reject to be accepted
I beckon so stop pestering
Marijuana, sorry you wanna marry me?
I left to be right
Knock Knock; nobody's home
You sit at a camp fire, tell stories of him
You're breaking out an unwary wanted
You want the real deal, you best come here, confront him
Tell me, don't you whisper in my ear, no slumping
Cause I swear, I keep hearing something
Y'all got me back now, but I ain't hearing nothing
All along you just queered, you bluffing
Hunt a myth
(Yet, you're clearly running.)
That's right, a legend is coming!
A legend is coming. (×2)

[Outro]
See, that's the thing about these legends. Now I'm not, I'm not talkin' about those sports legends
Your heroes, no musical legends, nah I'm talkin' about the fake ones
You know, the stuff that people tell stories about
'Know aren't real, and no one can live up to the hype
Legend has is I'm a rapper right? Whatever you'd think I was?!
A full time drawer, engineer?!
Nah, I'm more than that
I do live up to it, I do rap, yeah
I've been gone for a while
I'm back tho
Am I a legend now?
