[Intro]
Yeah, heavy on the soul, heavy on the heart
A story 'bout a legend, a true work of art
Listen in, let it resonate, let it start
This is more than music, it's the beating part
[Verse 1]
He was too heavy, weight on his shoulders
Carrying dreams that only he smolders
Made me cough, with every story told
Deep in his spirit, brave and bold
[Pre-Chorus]
He believed in the sound, knew the world loved his tune
But silence was deafening under the moon
He knew they weren’t listening, but still he grew
Heavy D knew his truth, his soul he knew
[Chorus]
Heavy D, heavy in the melody
He carried the weight of legacy
They tried to deny, but he defied, see
Heavy D, forever in history
[Verse 2]
He said many would try, but no one would succeed
Prepared for the fall, for the spotlight to bleed
Nobody did, but he kept planting seeds
Heavy in the game, fulfilling their needs
[Pre-Chorus]
Bruno, Cardi, and all the legends in the line
Six busloads rolling, crossing space and time
Europa trams, the world’s favorite rhyme
Artists roll through, stars destined to shine
[Chorus]
Heavy D, heavy in the melody
He carried the weight of legacy
They tried to deny, but he defied, see
Heavy D, forever in history
[Bridge]
From City College days to TikTok fame
Snoop’s nephew, Boys to Men, all in the frame
Quad City DJs, jammin’ the same
History’s made in this musical game
[Outro]
He knew the world loved his music, that’s true
His legacy lives in all we do
Heavy D, the spirit in you
Forever heavy, forever true
