Legends Never Die

(Intro — talkbox, somber) Yeeah… Candlelight on the curb… Names in the air… never fade… (Hook — haunting, melodic) Legends don’t die, they just ride in the night, Smoke to the sky, keep they memory alive. Been to more funerals than I been to weddings, Still hear they laugh every time that I’m steppin’. Stories live on in the things that we did, Through the wild nights and the life that we lived. Rest in peace, yeah I carry that weight — Every name on my chest, I don’t ever let it fade. (Verse 1 — reflective, grimey edge) Black tees lined up, candles in a row, Faces on shirts but I still see ‘em whole. Streetlights flicker, got me stuck in a trance, Thinkin’ ‘bout the times we ain’t give a damn. We was young, reckless, movin’ too fast, Did what we did, never thought ‘bout the past. Laughs in the dark, loud music, late nights, Now it’s quiet where you used to bring life. I still roll slow past the old block spot, Half the crew gone, other half still locked. Time don’t heal, it just harden the shell, Learn to live with it, never really do well. (Hook) Legends don’t die, they just ride in the night, Smoke to the sky, keep they memory alive. Been to more funerals than I been to weddings, Still hear they laugh every time that I’m steppin’. Stories live on in the things that we did, Through the wild nights and the life that we lived. Rest in peace, yeah I carry that weight — Every name on my chest, I don’t ever let it fade. (Verse 2 — deeper, raw honesty) We did dirt, yeah we knew that risk, But back then it just felt like bliss. Didn’t think ‘bout time, didn’t think ‘bout loss, Just lived real fast, never counted the cost. Now I sit back, replay every scene, Things we laughed at hit different when you grieve. Some stories wild, some never get told, Locked in my mind like a code in a vault. I still talk to ‘em when I’m ridin’ alone, Like they right there sittin’ passenger close. Ain’t gone for real, just moved outta sight, I feel ‘em in the air every time that I ride. (Bridge — talkbox, emotional) Still here… still ride… Names echo… through time… Can’t forget… won’t try… Legends… never die… (Hook — final, heavier) Legends don’t die, they just ride in the night, Smoke to the sky, keep they memory alive. Been to more funerals than I been to weddings, Still hear they laugh every time that I’m steppin’. Stories live on in the things that we did, Through the wild nights and the life that we lived. Rest in peace, yeah I carry that weight — Every name on my chest, I don’t ever let it fade. (Outro — quiet, fading engine + talkbox) Rest easy… I got you… Forever…
