[Verse 1]
Nobody sticks together, no one believes traditions
People leave and quit, and now I never see persistence
I see the good, the bad, and people who don't see the difference
I do not wish to be like you, so we should keep some distance
'Cause see for instance, love should be just instant
Even infants comprehend it, tell me why you preach against it
Oh, you too egotistic to even seek assistance?
Well, if you can't be consistent, you might as well cease existence
I was raised by a queen, but she worked like a slave
And, yeah, she taught me to mean every word that I say
Taught me to treat people right 'cause I deserve what I gave
Now I want nothin' but perfect in every verse that I lay
My mamma did some things for money, yeah, so what if she did?
She did what she had to do so we had a place to live
She put food up on the table so we had a grace to give
Yeah, them bands will make her dance 'cause them bands will feed the kids
And I ain't ashamed of that, not ashamed of that, I repeat myself, I bring it back
I could lie to you and try to hide the truth, but, tell me, what part of the game is that?
No, I came to work, I came to work, I run that game 'til my ankles hurt
She the reason I stand tall today, damn right, I give thanks to her
[Chorus]
No, I don't know just where I'm gonna be
Or what I'm gon' be doin' in another year or three
All I know, all I know is I'll be far from where I'm at
Gonna live to be a legend, yeah, I'm down to die for that
I don't know, I don't know just where I'm gonna be
Or what I'm gon' be doin' in another year or three
All I know, all I know is I'll be far from where I'm at
Gonna live to be a legend, yeah, I'm down to die for that
Nobody sticks together, no one believes traditions
People leave and quit, and now I never see persistence
I see the good, the bad, and people who don't see the difference
I do not wish to be like you, so we should keep some distance
'Cause see for instance, love should be just instant
Even infants comprehend it, tell me why you preach against it
Oh, you too egotistic to even seek assistance?
Well, if you can't be consistent, you might as well cease existence

Gonna live to be a legend, yeah, I'm down to die for that
