[Verse 1: Brian Gonser]
I heard legends never die
Something you can't describe
At the peak of Mount Olympus
Where the gods like to rise
In the early morning sun
The rays blister on the pavement
To contemplate what i'm doing
It all started in the basement
With a pen, a pad
Vapor for some inspiration
At the age of 8
I seemed to have a revelation
For myself, my mind
Created a design
To do right by the verse
And obey with the grind
[Hook: Brian Gonser]
Promised myself that the money won't possess
Old school 96' sh**, Word to Lord Finesse
Came up under Marshall, Nas, and Biggie
Hold it down for the crew
Anybody riding with me
Anybody riding with me
Anybody riding with me
Hold it down for the crew
Anybody riding with me, damn
Hold it down for the crew
Anybody riding with me
[Verse 2: PLK]
I heard the sun will fall
Where I was, I can't recall
I learned how to walk
I ain't got no time to crawl
Cause life will pa** you by
In the blink of an eye
And lies will cut your tongue
In the blink of reply
I don't comply with the norms
Cause it's socially tainted
I let it fall on d**h's ears
I don't hear what you're sayin'
Won't let nobody make me, change me or define me
If you didn't catch it then, then you better rewind me
I grew up on real sh**, Took craft to be an artist
When rappers put art in the words on their margins
Now everybody's starvin', Sold out with the bargain
But I stay true to me, I don't care what they're chargin'
At 18, I was writin' harder verses than most
Me and Fat Billy, Blowin' phillies, Cuttin' up Coke
And I walked the dark road but know I see lights
Cause before I saw demons, But know I see mics
[Hook]
