Legacy

Take those moneys and spread 'cross families\nMy sisters, Hattie and Lou, the nephews, cousins and TT\nEric, the rest to B for whatever she wants to do\nShe might start an institute\nShe might put poor kids through school\nMy stake in Roc Nation should go to you\nLeave a piece for your siblings to give to their children too\nTIDAL, the champagne, D’USSÉ, I’d like to see\nA nice peace-fund ideas from people who look like we\nWe gon' start a society within a society\nThat’s major, just like the Negro League\nThere was a time America wouldn’t let us ball\nThose times are now back, just now called Afro-tech\nGenerational wealth, that’s the key\nMy parents ain’t have shit, so that ship started with me\nMy mom took her money, she bought me bonds\nThat was the sweetest thing of all time, uh\nLegacy, Legacy, Legacy, Legacy\nBlack excellence baby, you gon' let 'em see\nLegacy, Legacy, Legacy, Legacy\nBlack excellency, baby, let 'em see\nI’ve been listenin' to Wu-Tang and niggas like\n«Your seed, married his seed, married my seed»\nThat’s how we keep Carter money all in the family\nYou see, my father, son of a preacher man\nWhose daughter couldn’t escape the reach of the preacher’s hand\nThat charge of energy set all the Carters back\nIt took all these years to get to zero in fact\nI hated religion 'cause here was this Christian\nHe was preachin' Sundays, versus how he was livin' Monday\nSomeday I forgive him\n'Cause strangely our division led to multiple religions\nI studied Muslim, Buddhist, and Christians\nAnd I was runnin' from him, He was givin' me wisdom\nSee how the universe works?\nIt takes my hurt and help me find more of myself\nIt’s a gift and a curse\nThat’s called the red queens race\nYou run this hard just to stay in place\nKeep up the pace, baby\nKeep up the pace\nYou run this hard just to stay in place\nLegacy, Legacy, Legacy, Legacy\nBlack excellence, you gon' let 'em see\nLegacy, Legacy, Legacy, Legacy\nBlack excellency, baby, let 'em see\nDay, someday, someday we’ll all\nSomeday we’ll all be free
