I'm Your Legend

[Intro] [Spoken sample: Nas-style voice] “Yo, they say legends ain’t born—they’re made. But I’m both. Let me tell you how I rose to this throne.” [Verse 1] I came from the cracks in the pavement, the Bronx alleys, Where the sky kissed the fire escapes, the streets rallied. Spitting scripture out the cypher, my words carry Weight like the burdens on my back from my family. Brick buildings taught resilience, steel minds, Lost brothers in the chaos, left dreams behind. I resurrect ’em in the verses, every rhyme refined, Paint murals of the truth—timeless designs. A scholar with a pen, no college to attend, Learned knowledge from the blocks where the struggle never ends. The hustle’s in my DNA, the grind’s in my lens, Saw the future in the mirror, said, “I’m your legend.” [Chorus] [Scratched sample: “I’m your legend, I’m your legend.”] “I rose from the ashes, the hood’s confession.” [Scratched sample: “I’m your legend, I’m your legend.”] “My pain & my triumph, my life’s reflection.” [Verse 2] King of the cypher, where the mic is my crown, Every line a jewel, every verse renowned. Taught to move in silence, let the work resound, Now I’m building pyramids in the underground. The projects were my kingdom, but poverty my foe, Ducking under streetlights where the shadows grow. Every corner had a prophet, every block a show, & every bar I spit carried seeds to sow. My word’s alchemy, turning pain into gold, Scripture of the street prophets, stories untold. I’m the bridge from the past to the legends I mold, A legacy that’ll live till the universe folds. [Chorus] [Scratched sample: “I’m your legend, I’m your legend.”] “I rose from the ashes, the hood’s confession.” [Scratched sample: “I’m your legend, I’m your legend.”] “My pain & my triumph, my life’s reflection.” [Bridge] [Spoken sample: Nas-style voice] “Yo, I walk these streets like a griot, a storyteller. Every block’s a chapter, every rhyme’s a treasure. This ain’t just music—this is the blueprint.” [Verse 3] The ink bleeds my soul, graffiti for the lost, Every syllable a tombstone for what life cost. I’m the ghost of the past, the spirit of the now, The voice of the voiceless, the face of the proud. Raised on Marley & Malcolm, Tupac & the Bible, Kept my focus in the storm when the street’s suicidal. Survival’s the gospel, I’m the preacher of the real, An architect of dreams that the struggle tried to kill. For the youth in the alleys, for the kids with no name, For the mothers holding tears while the system plays games. I’m the echo in the chamber, the fire in your veins, I’m the hope in your heart when you’re shackled in chains. [Chorus] “I rose from the ashes, the hood’s confession.” [Scratched sample: “I’m your legend, I’m your legend.”] “My pain & my triumph, my life’s reflection.” [Outro] [Spoken sample: Nas-style voice] “Legend ain’t a title, it’s a journey, a creed. It’s the fight, the vision, the life you lead. I’m your legend, forever breathing through these beats. Peace.” [End]
