(앨범: Keep Going - 2019)

[Mike Posner {Talib Kweli}:]
(Legacy)
I can see the future
(Legacy)
I know who I am
(Legacy)
I think I can feel my {Yeah}
(Legacy)
Lega-lega-legacy {Uh, uh, yeah}

[Talib Kweli:]
Legacy is when you need no introductions (None)
You walk in the room and everybody start buzzing
Legacy, when your reputation precedes you
Little kids grow up, they wanna be you
Legacy is when you're silent, but your presence felt
The product like drugs 'cause it sell itself
Yeah, you survived many disasters
And now, they hang your jersey from the rafters (Yeah)
And see these jokers getting greedier? (Come on)
Gotta hit the road when the locals don't believe in ya
My music in museums, it's timeless as Mona Lisa, bruh
A legacy artist, I don't need social media
So, when you see me online, I'm having fun, trust
Unjust situations make me wanna gun-bust (Brrah)
But I'm a man of peace (Yeah), and so I plan to be poetic
With my words to help you curb and understand the beast
We keep it all love in the nightclub (Let's go)
They wanna turn the nightclub into the fight club (Let's go)
My life's blood runs deeper than a knife cut
This the crack that the dope boys slice up
My lyrics sound scary to the corporate sellers (Yeah)
I'm like '97 Rockafella, but more Griselda (Yeah)
My observations make your heart stop, like organ failure
So, they think that I could see the future like a fortune teller

[Mike Posner {Talib Kweli}:]
(Legacy) {What?}
I can see the future
(Legacy)
I know who I am
(Legacy)
I think I can feel my
(Legacy)
Lega-lega-legacy

[Mike Posner:]
Heat-check, deep breath
I give all my love to ya, baby, Keith Sweat
Gimme 20 more miles, I don't need rest
I'm half way to goals I haven't even dreamed yet
And I don't need money, I need faith
People thinking that I'm some sort of DJ
But I'm a poet and a man and a troubadour
I'm divine light hidden in a human form
It doesn't matter what you do, it's what you do it for
There are some places that you can't take a Uber toward
Love people, keep a brave heart
Don't make guns, make art
I got Sequoia trees cheering me on
Wherever I am is where I belong
Some of my fam is buried and gone
I'm tryna learn more things I can share in my songs
Like life is a curtain that hides the divine
You can peak behind that when you quiet the mind
I rely on something that's stronger than me
And all my songs will live much longer than me, that's

(Legacy)
I can see the future
(Legacy)
I know who I am
(Legacy)
I think I can feel my
(Legacy)
