[Verse 1]
Hands wrapped, knuckles taped black
Pick my gloves up off the mat, fighting's all I ever had
Wasn't born with tons of gifts, had to work hard as a kid
Know that everything I did was to catch the other kids
Slowly built that self-esteem, turned myself to a machine
I'd compete so I'd be seen, I would lose and I'd succeed
But you'd never see me quit, I'd always get after it
Knew I had a different gift, I'd outwork any other kid

[Pre-Chorus]
Deep within our souls, we can feel there's something empty
We need something more, I feel destiny, she tempts me
Tells mе there's two paths, they both havе a different ending
Choose wise and you'll find that, pain leads to ascending

[Chorus]
'Til I'm dead and buried, deep within a cemetery
I will fight, never wary, I wanna be legendary
'Til I'm dead and buried, deep within a cemetery
I will fight, never wary, I wanna be legendary

[Drop]
I wanna be legendary
I wanna be legendary
[Verse 2]
(Let's go, round two)
Coming outta the gate, I'll be last place
And that's alright, I don't work at a fast pace
I'm the steady horse
Creeping up, straight passing and once I pass you
No one's getting past me
I've seen people hit walls and they stop there
I don't get that mind, man, it sounds scared
Good things take time, better prepare
'Cause anything great takes pain and some fear, uh
Take it from me 'cause I got to this place
Where no one can tell me to do anything
I call my own shots, I call my own plays
I enjoy my life almost everyday
And I could teach you if you listen to me
You follow some rules, don't need gifts to be paid
Persistence is better than brains any day
Just listen to me and I'll show you the way

[Pre-Chorus]
Deep within our souls, we can feel there's something empty
We need something more, I feel destiny, she tempts me
Tells me there's two paths, they both have a different ending
Choose wise and you'll find that, pain leads to ascending
[Chorus]
'Til I'm dead and buried, deep within a cemetery
I will fight, never wary, I wanna be legendary
'Til I'm dead and buried, deep within a cemetery
I will fight, never wary, I wanna be legendary

[Drop]
I wanna be legendary

[Outro]
'Til I'm dead and buried, deep within a cemetery
I will fight, never wary, I wanna be legendary
'Til I'm dead and buried, deep within a cemetery
I will fight, never wary, I wanna be legendary
I wanna be legendary
I wanna be legendary
