living legend - brian october lyrics

[verse: one]
i done seen people lose hope, hanging on rope
either that or they slang dope
either that or they sell soap
eleven years old i was finna go in
and they said no
they told me i’m better than that
that i’m meant for the mic and i’m better at that
so i’m right where it’s at
so i lead it at that
the corner i pick it up at was a store
where i lent me a hat
and i found me a gat
so i’m finna go brrrt! when i see me a cat
and i leave it at that
better yet i donе found me a jet
i was eagеr to get
so i lead it at that
your girl was right here
and that p*ssy was wet
she was tossed in the set (ugh!)
nah n*gga let’s leave it at that…
she knows that i’m cooler than ice cream
you done told me this sh*t is a pipe dream
i would’ve believed it if i wasn’t ghetto
and better than gifted
i would’ve believed it if i wasn’t ghetto
i’m finna get lifted (doo! doo! doo!)
so i’m right by the corner store
splitting it by the corner
for splitting hits by the 24
when it’s war, it’s war
now you know you know
if you know you know, that’s just how it go
when i k!ll this show
with this ill*east flow
make you wanna go tell the po*po
that i’m psycho
that i’m death*row, i done k!lled a hoe
that i’m right by the 84, doing door to door
they gon’ pay me more
i’m to the game like a heavy sore
i done f*cked it up, i done did it raw
what i did it for…
i don’t know for sure, i done covered score
i done ducked a wh0re
getting right back to that corner store
i took right back where we do dirt
where we could’ve died young
we was out in the slum
acting numb, lighting up like it don’t hurt
acting numb like it don’t hurt
at the corner where the neighborhoods link up
we was there for the pickup
had a knife on the side for the stickup
and a gat in the slide
for the flip up (when they flip up)
i’m a buffalo soldier that’s willing to serve
i’m flowing like water, i’m right by the kerb
for things i deserve
the bends that i swerve
i’m dope by the kilo to even the nerve, i swerve
i’m flowing like water, i’m right by the curve
i swerve
i done seen people dying
i done seen people trying
my grandmamma told me i’m heart of a lion
that i’m heart of orion
i saw it in me at 20 years young
never grew no wings but i’m flying
it’s me and this beat in your ear
like heat to an ion, heat to the iron
black kids that are try’na go corporate
we’re just try’na get our hearts
and our thoughts straight
we were raised by the men
who don’t walk straight
they were judged, they were framed
like a portrait
none of them had a plaque
or a plug on the wall
no awards, no job and no doctorates
we knew
[outro]
yea, we was out there living that legend
i swear!
