Testi

Daddy, what's a will?
Yeah
Take those monies and spread 'cross families
My sister, Hatty and Lou, the nephews, cousins, and TT
Eric, the rest to B for whatever she wants to do
She might start a institute, she might put poor kids in school
My stake in Roc Nation should go to you
Leave a piece for your siblings to give to their children too
TIDAL, the champagne, D'USSÉ, I'd like to see
A nice peace-fund ideas for people who look like we
We're gon' start a society within society
That's major, just like the Negro League
There was a time America wouldn't let us ball
Those times are now back, just now called Afro Tech
Generational wealth, that's the key
My parents ain't have shit, so that shift started with me
My mom took her money, she bought me bonds
That was the sweetest thing of all time, uh
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Black excellence, baby, you gon' let 'em see
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Black excellency, baby, let 'em see
I remember like listening to Wu-Tang
And they was like
"Your seed marry his seed, marry my seed"
That's how we keep Carter money all in the family
You see, my father, son of a preacher man
Who's daughter couldn't escape the reach of the preacher's hand
That charge of energy set all the Carters back
It took all these years to get to zero, in fact
I hated religion 'cause here was this Christian
He was preaching on Sundays versus how he was living Monday
Someday I'll forgive him 'cause
Strangely our division led to multiple religions
I studied Muslim, Buddhist, and Christians and
I was running from him, but He was giving me wisdom
See how the universe works?
It takes my hurt and help me find more of myself
It's a gift and a curse
That's called the Red Queen's race
You run this hard just to stay in place
Keep up the pace, baby, keep up the pace
You run this hard just to stay in place
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Black excellence, you gon' let 'em see
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Black excellency, baby, let 'em see
