[Am] [Dm] [E]
[Am] [Dm] [E]
[Dm] You got beat up a lot as a kid.
Yeah, there was a lot of instances.
[E] You got beat up coming home from [Am] school.
Beat up in the bathroom, beat [Dm] up in the hallways, [Am] shoved into lockers.
You know, [Dm] just for the most part, man, [E] just being the new kid.
[Dm] Hip-hop has always been about bragging and boasting,
and I'm better than you at this and I'm [E] better than you at that.
[Am] And I finally found something that, yeah, this kid [Dm] over here,
you know, he may have [E] [Am] more chicks, like [Dm] he may have better clothes or whatever,
but he can't do this like [E] me.
You know what I mean?
He can't [Am] write what I'm writing right now.
And it [Dm] started to feel like, you [E] know, maybe Marshall's getting a little respect.
[Am] Tell me [F] where to go, tell me [Dm] what to do.
[E] I'll be right there [Am] for you.
Tell me [Dm] what to say, no matter if it's true.
[E] I'll say it all for you.
I [Dm] used to be the type of kid that would always think the sky is falling.
Why am I [E] so differently [Am] wired?
Am I [Dm] a Martian?
What kind of twisted experiment am I involved in?
Because I don't [E] belong in this world.
If I'm [F] scoffing at authority, defiant [Fm] often.
Flying off to [Ab] handle it, my [E] mom knew [F] that, so I am noncompliant at home.
At school, [Dm] I'm just trying awkward,
and I don't need no [E] goddamn psychologist [Am] trying to [Dm] diagnose why I have all these underlying problems.
Thinking he can try and [E] solve them.
I'm outside [Am] chalking up [Dm] drawings on the sidewalk,
and in the front drive talking to myself.
[E] Either that or inside hiding [Am] often.
At the corner [F] somewhere [Dm] quiet, trying not to be noticed, and [E] crying and sobbing.
I had [Dm] a bad day at school, so I ain't talking.
Some cocksucker shoved me into a fucking [Am] lockup,
because he said that I eyeballed him.
[F] And if [Dm] you fall, I'll [E] get you [Am] there.
I'll [F] be [Dm] your savior [E] from all the [Am] wars that [F] unfold.
[Dm] Inside your [E] world, please have [Am] faith in [F] my words.
[Dm] [Am]
This is my legacy, [F] legacy.
[Dm] [E] This is [Am] my legacy, [F] legacy.
[Dm] [E]
[Am] There's no guarantee, [F] it's not up to [Dm] me.
We can only [E] see.
This is [Am] my legacy, [F] legacy.
[Dm] Legacy, [E] legacy.
[Am] I used to be the type of kid [Dm] that would always think the sky is falling.
Why am I [E] so differently [A] wired?
Am I [Dm] an organ?
Cosporadic as my thoughts come, it's mind-boggling.
Cos I obsess [E] on everything.
In my mind, [F] small shit bothers me,
but now my father, [Dm] he's a cyanograd and split, but I don't [E] give a shit.
I'm fine [Dm] as long as there's batteries in my Walkman.
Nothing's a matter with me, shit look on the [E] bright side.
At least I ain't [Am] walking [F] a bike ride through the neighborhood of my [Dm] apartment complex on [E] a 10-speed.
Which I've acquired [Dm] parts that I find in the garbage.
I frame them, put tires on it, headphones on it, [E] straight ahead.
Kids can try and [Am] start shit, [Dm] but if this is all there is for me,
life offers, wife, partner, [E] even trying to put up a fight.
[Am] It's nonsense, but [Dm] I think a light bulb just lit up in my conscience.
What about them rhymes [Am] I've been jotting?
They're kinda giving me confidence instead of [F] trying to escape through my [Dm] comics.
Why don't I just [E] blast a little something like [Am] Onyx
to put me in [F] the mood to wanna fight and write [Dm] songs that
say what I wanna [E] say to that kid that said that I [Am] eyeballed him.
Grab hold of my [F] ball like that's fight, fight [Dm] song, bitch.
Who [E] would've knew from the moment I turned the mic [Am] on that I could be [F] iconic in my [Dm] conquest.
That's word to Phife Dawg from [Am] the Tribe Conquest.
This is my legacy, [F] legacy.
[Dm] [E] This is [Am] my legacy, [F] legacy.
[Dm] [E]
[Am] There's no guarantee, [F] it's not up to [Dm] me.
You can only [E] see.
This is [Am] my legacy, [F] legacy.
[Dm] Legacy, [E] legacy.
I [Am] used to be the [Dm] type of kid that would always think the sky is falling.
Now I think the [E] fact that I'm different, that's why [Am] it's awesome.
[F] Cause if I wasn't, I wouldn't be [Dm] able to work words like this
and connect [A] lines like crosswords.
And use [Dm] my enemies' words of strength to try and draw from
and get inspired [E] off of them.
Cause all my life I [Am] was told and taught I am [Dm] not shit.
Why you whack fucking giant sacks of lying [E] dog shit?
Now [Am] you shut up, [Dm] bitch, I am talking.
Thought I was full of horseshit and now you fucking [E] worship the ground on which I [Am] am walking.
[F] Me against the world, so what?
I'm Brian [Dm] Dawkins versus the [E] hollow and 16-line [Am] dolphins.
[Dm] So bring on the Giants, Falcons, and Miami Dolphins.
It's the body [E] pack game, bitch, [A] I'm supplying coffins.
Cause you dicks [Dm] but kids, aren't you Brian Paulking?
Cause you gon' tie [Am] a ball licker, I've been diabolical with this [F] dialogue since 99 [Dm] Rockets.
You don't respect [E] the legacy I leave behind, [Am] y'all can suck a dick [F] the day you beat me.
Pixel [Dm] fly on my ass in a flying [E] saucer full of Italian [Am] sausage.
The moves [F] tie exalting and I [Dm] ain't halting till I die of [E] exhaustion and hail my [Am] exhaust fumes.
The best [F] part about me is I am [Dm] not you, I'm me.
And I'm the fire [Am] marshal and this is my legacy.
[F] [Dm] Yeah.
[E]
This is [Am] my legacy.
[F] Legacy.
[Dm] Yeah.
[E]
[Am] There's no guarantee.
[F] It's not up to me.
[Dm] You can only see.
[E]
This is [Am] my legacy.
[F] Legacy.
[Dm] Legacy.
