[Verse 1]
I don’t know why they hate on me
I keep my name on the chain
Cold eyes on the hallway floor
I walk in, they look away
Old marks on the back of my mind
Still I wear them like gold
Every scar got a story to tell
And I’m never gonna fold
[Pre-Chorus]
They bite, then they back up
Feel that pressure in the room
Every rumor turns to dust
When I step in and move
[Chorus]
They can smell the legacy
They can smell the legacy
Standing on supremacy
Standing on supremacy
I don’t break, I don’t beg
I don’t bend for nobody
[Verse 2]
My boots hit hard on the concrete
Like a drum in the dark
Hands full of yesterday’s smoke
But I keep that spark
They want a crack in my armor
Want me tired and small
I learned to turn that hunger
Into a wall
[Pre-Chorus]
They bite, then they back up
Feel that pressure in the room
Every rumor turns to dust
When I step in and move
[Chorus]
They can smell the legacy
They can smell the legacy
Standing on supremacy
Standing on supremacy
I don’t break, I don’t beg
I don’t bend for nobody
[Bridge]
If you want the whole truth
I was built in the fire
From the mud to the skyline
I kept climbing higher
No crown, just a backbone
No throne, just my name
And the more that they whisper
The more I walk the flame
[Final Chorus]
They can smell the legacy
They can smell the legacy
Standing on supremacy
Standing on supremacy
I don’t break, I don’t beg
I don’t bend for nobody
They can smell the legacy
Yeah, they know it’s mine
