Legend Lyrics

First time I met Khali, it wasn't physically I was still tryna find myself lyrically

E-town, our code 064, I met Ricky Beko in a talent show,

I was straight outta high school, so I needed to show him I was cool

And he gave me a chance with the studio time cause he knew on the mic I would rule

Had some Camp Mula vibes, you know the flow and the lingo then

Ricky told me about this dope dude named Khaligraph,

When he put that Mario track I knew I wanted his autograph,

I was a little scared like damn this gon' be tough

If that's the market standard, am I really good enough

Went back to the drawing board, the road got rough, it wasn't jealousy I had

Somehow I got inspired, so I headed out to Twitter

I wrote a message to the legend, it said

I know it's strange, but I'm looking up to

you I've been watching you and noticing down

everything you do

Your hard work and dedication has become my

motivation I'll be the first to mention you're a true

definition of a legend

And on that legendary path in silence taught

me the craft Now it's time I played my part, being a legend

And on that legendary path in silence taught me the craft

Now it's time I played my part,

Fast forward I'm in a different city

Had a big head and my mouth dirty

Had a strong feeling if I kept it real

I'd conquer all and be a king still

But I faced rejection, somehow I couldn't get the attention

And so my dreams to rise to the top became just fiction

Second time I met Kali, I was losing hope

I couldn't keep up with that hip hop

When I did the freestyle off the dome

He thought it was dope,

That sparked a fire

But still I was gone retire

And I felt like I let him down, maybe he'd have passed me that crown, ey

I lost my chance, these things only come once

From that time he got too big, I could only be a fan

I had made up my mind at the point of no return

So I turned to my pen and wrote down my testimony

It said,

All that you do, you're representing me

All the awards, all the shows, the success is for me

Your hard work and dedication then became my motivation

Even though they barely mention

You're a true definition of a legend

And on that legendary path in silence taught me the craft

Now it's time I played my part, being a legend

On that legendary path in silence taught me the craft

Now it's time I played my part, ayy
