Legacy
Crafting Our Legacy
Lyrics
My body don’t make the man I am
My physical body doesn't define my true essence.
It’s a vessel I use to conduct my plans
The body is a tool for executing plans and actions.
Cause I’m a spirit you know it’s true
The speaker identifies with a deeper, spiritual aspect.
We all are deep down we’re bulletproof
We all have an inherent resilience or strength within.
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
The more I want the harder I try
Desire increases with effort, but success may decrease.
The harder I try the less I fly
Struggling more doesn't necessarily lead to greater achievement.
My hearts been broke my ego bruised
Past experiences have caused emotional pain and wounded pride.
It’s all my fault but I’ll blame you
Acceptance of responsibility but also attributing blame.
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
Everyone has got the chance to be
Everyone has the opportunity to shape their own destiny.
Whatever we make our own history
Individuals create their own history through choices.
And when it’s time to leave
Reflection on the inevitability of leaving a legacy.
We leave our legacy
Our actions and choices define the legacy we leave.
Sometimes we kneel sometimes we break
Life involves both moments of humility and resilience.
Life ain’t always a piece of cake
Life is not always easy; challenges are inherent.
We’re all fighting a war within
Internal struggles are universal to the human experience.
Everybody’s plagued by sin
Recognition of the pervasive influence of human imperfection.
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
But what matters most is where we go from here
The crucial aspect is the direction taken after challenges.
Will you rise above or disappear?
Choosing to rise above challenges or fade away is significant.
Cause when it is all said and done
Reflection on life's journey and its inevitable end.
We go back to where we begun
A cyclical notion of returning to one's origins or fundamental state.
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
Everyone has got the chance to be
Reiteration of the individual's power to shape their destiny.
Whatever we make our own history
Emphasizing the personal creation of history through choices.
And when it’s time to leave
Repeating the idea that our actions define our legacy.
We leave our legacy
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
If you’re ever sitting at a crossroads
A metaphorical crossroads signifies decision points in life.
If you can’t decide which way to go
Feeling indecisive or uncertain about the future.
Look deep down inside yourself
Encouraging introspection for personal answers.
For answers only you can tell
Highlighting the individual nature of self-discovery.
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
Life is like a melody
Life is compared to a musical composition with highs and lows.
With ups and downs and harmony
Acknowledging life's fluctuations and balance.
Ooh I’ve fucked up a time or two
Admitting personal mistakes or missteps.
Even I don’t always sing in tune
Humorously acknowledging imperfection and mistakes.
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Expressing emotion or emphasis (vocalization).
Everyone has got the chance to be
Reiterating the theme of personal agency in shaping destiny.
Whatever we make our own history
Emphasizing the role of individuals in creating history.
I have only really ever wanted peace
Expressing a desire for personal peace and tranquility.
I’m a student of philosophy
Identifying as a student of philosophy, seeking wisdom.
I want the very best for you for me
Wishing the best for oneself and others for eternity.
For eternity
Expressing a desire for a positive and lasting impact.
When it’s my time to leave
Reflecting on leaving behind a meaningful legacy.
Make that my legacy
Summarizing the desire to leave a
