Legacy

Intro

This isn’t just words, it’s weight in decisions

Not just the present, it’s long-term vision

Everything echoes beyond what I see

So I build something stronger than just being me

Verse 1

Balance on a tightrope, every step I define

Not just what I’m saying, it’s the shape of my spine

’Cause my kids read my actions more than lines that I speak

They inherit my habits, not the promises I keep

So I sharpen every sentence till it lands with intent

A careless word today can be a lifetime imprint

It’s easy sounding solid, it’s harder to stand

When the pressure starts rising and you still choose the plan

Chorus

Find the balance, stand firm when it pulls you apart

Give your energy to those who give back from the heart

Close the door on what drains, let the real ones grow

What you leave behind is the truth they’ll know

Verse 2

I can read through the surface, see the cracks in the smile

Everybody loves the light, few stay through denial

So I choose who surrounds me with a careful design

’Cause the wrong voices near you can distort your mind

Setting boundaries ain’t cold, it’s control of your space

It’s protecting your direction, not rejecting a face

You reflect your environment, it shapes what you are

So I keep my circle tight, that’s where strength leaves a mark

Chorus

Find the balance, stand firm when it pulls you apart

Give your energy to those who give back from the heart

Close the door on what drains, let the real ones grow

What you leave behind is the truth they’ll know

Verse 3

Energy’s a currency, it’s not endlessly wide

If you spend it in the wrong place, it just slowly runs dry

So I place every ounce where it builds, not breaks

With the ones who lift weight, not the ones who just take

It’s easy walking paths that are open and clear

It’s harder staying steady when resistance is near

Character is built where no applause ever sounds

In the quiet decisions when no one’s around

Chorus

Find the balance, stand firm when it pulls you apart

Give your energy to those who give back from the heart

Close the door on what drains, let the real ones grow

What you leave behind is the truth they’ll know

Verse 4

When it all comes down to what remains in the end

It’s not what you held, it’s the way you would bend

Did you leave something solid, did your presence add weight

Or did everything fade when you stepped from the stage

So I live with intention in each move that I make

Trying to leave something strong that my children can take

Not perfect, just steady, with a code I’ve shown

So they can say I was real—down to the bone

Chorus

Find the balance, stand firm when it pulls you apart

Give your energy to those who give back from the heart

Close the door on what drains, let the real ones grow

What you leave behind is the truth they’ll know
