Intro "If I don’t make it to the top, let this be the proof I tried. Let this be the love I left behind." Verse 1 I pen these verses like I’m etchin’ in stone, Legacy laced in the marrow and bone. Three little lights in a world overgrown— I’m buildin’ a future they can call their own. My oldest daughter got a mind like flame, She read my silence, she don’t need the name. She see the grind, she respect the frame— She know her daddy built this off pain. My youngest daughter got a heart so wide, She dance through the room like the hurt don’t hide. She hold my hand when the pressure collide— She the joy I protect when the world divide. My son got eyes like a storm held back, He watch how I move, how I never crack. He don’t speak much, but he feel the track— He the echo of strength when the nights go black. Hook (Melinoe) These are my legacy notes, written in flame, Folded in rhythm, signed with your name. I see your love in the way you stay, I hear your truth in the words you say. Verse 2 I don’t just grind—I archive the soul, I stitch every scar into verses I hold. I cook for the table, but I feed the fold— I’m teachin’ my kids how to walk through cold. I move through the silence with purpose intact, I speak through the labor, not words I enact. I’m buildin’ a house where the love don’t lack— Where my daughters and son never feel the crack. I see my wife in the way I endure, She the calm in the storm, she the love that’s pure. She the prayer in the heat, the quiet cure— She the reason I rise when I’m feelin’ unsure. I ain’t chasin’ applause, I’m chasin’ the root, I’m plantin’ a legacy deeper than loot. I’m writin’ a gospel in kitchen boots— So my children inherit more than pursuit. Bridge (Melinoe + Child Voice) If I’m gone before the morning light, Let these words be what I leave behind. “Daddy, I remember.” Your love was the rhythm, your grind was the sound, You built us a kingdom from underground. Hook (Melinoe – Repeat) These are my legacy notes, written in flame, Folded in rhythm, signed with your name. I see your love in the way you stay, I hear your truth in the words you say. Outro “I hear you, Daddy.” “I love you, Daddy.” “I remember everything.” _"If they forget my name, let them remember my sound. If they forget my face, let them feel my grind. If they forget my story, let these notes remind. I ain’t just lived—I left something behind." © 2025 Crazynapz. All rights reserved.
