[Intro]
I'm a living legend
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Known to be ignorant
Appear to be hostile
Said to be full of neglect, and always in denial
Seems now, I'm portrayed to be senile
Somehow, y'all think this ain't me, (ouch)
They quick just to profile, don't click to this lifestyle
They stick just to see how, I might just turnout
You mumble my name, throw me in a dust pile
They look like you've witnessed a ghost; cause I'm here now
I've eviscerated every tree in the forest; now am I harmless?
Thing is that wasn't a threat; it's just a promise
I mean, is there anything I have yet; that's not demolished?
You've really sold my stories, well it's time to stop ya!
You can go ahead and put that nail right in the coffin
Cause there ain't none left for me to bury, so pay your homage
(Your dues, I'll reap)
I got the heart of a beast
The blood of a minotaur
[Hook] (x2)
Legend has it: I'm not always tellin' the truth
But if you were me, what's the difference with you?
You don't believe in the stories, won't you come fill my shoes
[Verse 2]
Known to be arrogant
Sound like a pessimist
I just keep wreckin' it, not to be reckoned with
You can't smooth my edges, I'm barred to be social with
You're losing reception
Get your rugged, utter, mere sullenness outta here
They say I'm coveted, but I'm also troubulous
Stay throwin' shade on my shadow, why you act humblest?
I'm a living legend
I guess I'm not exactly what you've expected
But I'm more and nothing less than
Be careful when you bring up my name in a sentence
I've learned to dance in the rain, you still feel threatened
I live up to my hype, I am aggressive
Be careful for what you just might step in
Not to be messed with, I reject to be accepted
Some sit at a camp fire, tell stories of me
You're breaking out an unwary wanted
You want the real deal? Confront him
Don't whisper in my ear! No slumpin'
All along you just queered; you bluffed it
[Hook] (×2)
Legend has it: I'm not always tellin' the truth
But if you were me, what's the difference with you?
You don't believe in the stories, won't you come fill my shoes
[Bridge]
They always want to slay a monster
I see they always fail to get the job done
Way I see it, some want me dead gone
Anything you hear about me's dead wrong
[Interlude]
You know, that's the thing
Some keep saying something, but when I have a presence
I hear nothing at all. They get quiet, huh?
The thing about legends is they come in different forms
I'm not talking about your legends: the heroes, athletes, or celebrities
I'm talking 'bout the ones you chit-chatter on at some little "campfire", grabbing your popcorn and your smores
Think it's funny to talk behind one's back, 'till they dead appearing in front of you and you have a loss for words, right
I'm a living legend, because people got stuff to say and I'm here to be able to silence the noise
What, you think all I do is rap?
Nah, I'm more than that though
Legends never die, but it's gonna be funny, find out who I am, you won't live to tell that story
Gonna be legendary
[Hook] (×2)
