"Legend"

Verse 1:
The American dream, what we all want
Some work hard, others juss flaunt.
No pity in the streets, a lesson learned
Be weary of others, wait ya turn.
Don't be scared, don't be foolish
Find a shootin' star, make ya wish.
Strive to achieve, never back down
When others hate, smack 'em back down.
Buy a beamer, or even a benz
How bout a rolls, fakers wanna be friends.
Never seen before, when there was nothing
Comin' wit hands out, all wantin' something.
Like George and Weezie, movin' on up
Bumps in ya way, best start to jump.
Faith never broken, love never die
Finally got one, piece of that pie.

Chorus:
Only a beginning, never an end
We makin' history, we gon be legend.
Weed out the users, keep close to friends
We makin' history, we gon be legend.
Don't lose yaself, be everyday trend
We makin' history, we gon be legend.
They may criticize, they may condescend
We makin' history, we gon be legend.

Verse 2:
Fight in the war, they know ya then
Everybody's hero, everybody's friend.
But lose ya way, they all goodbye
No one around, no one to see ya cry.
Isn't it funny, when ya risk ya life
They all love you, especially ya wife.
The money she want, shopping she like
Prestige she got, buy everything in sight.
Get out the war, snap back to reality
Want a jobby-job, no more be all you can be.
Lose the benefits, she out the door
Common gold-digger, money-grubbin' w****.
Once had it all, now she want half
Palms held out, wit a Vincent Price laugh.
Ya try to act hurt, but hold head back up
Don't ya remember bia, we got a prenup.

Chorus:
Only a beginning, never an end
We makin' history, we gon be legend.
Weed out the users, keep close to friends
We makin' history, we gon be legend.
Don't lose yaself, be everyday trend
We makin' history, we gon be legend.
They may criticize, they may condescend
We makin' history, we gon be legend.

Never a follower, always a starter
Never broken, always a breaker.
Won't find in a textbook, referenced in the end
I'm gon make history, I'm gon be legend.

I promise ya that.

Thanks. The army stuff I guess ties in with the whole American dream concept that I started out with. That a bunch of those soldiers who enlist are following the American dream. Can't really explain it. I just started writing and a few minutes later, that's what I got.

Appreciate the feedback, though - for real.

ya nice hehe
i love the lyric
