[Intro - J. Cole]
Watch out, you have to you have to watch out for the legends

Hell yeah man you know what I’m saying when I came in rap all I wanted was like a number one album, platinum single or something. That’s it that’s all I ever wanted

You know nobody has to make room you gotta earn everything you get. You know what I mean? Nobodies just gonna stamp you a legend if you’re not doing anything that’s legendary

[Verse - Plowman]
See I always felt a little different than my peers
Cause they counting down the minutes
I be counting down the years
See their dreams far that’s when they start to veer
I just stay up working hard cause my dreams right here
I’m feeling like a Guinness they just feeling like a light beer
I’m feeling far ahead got some buzz like I’m light year
But I ain’t trying to get drunk
I like this level right here
And if I like this town, I might just spend the night here
Living for the future
Living for the past
Living for the present present won’t last
Foot on the break or
Foot on the gas
Chasing first place or
Getting lapped
Living for the future are
[Pre-Chorus - Plowman]
You living for the past
Are you living for the present?
The present won’t last
Is your foot on the break?
Or is your foot on the gas?
Are you chasing first place or
You sitting getting lapped?

[Hook - Plowman]
Here I am rapping like it’s just you and me
One life for yourself and one life for your dreams
Here I am rapping like it’s just you and me
One life for yourself and one life for your dreams

[Verse - Momento]
Hey
Back in the day they say you gotta live one kind of life
Go to school get a job slave away until you die
But I told them that’s not happening
Do what everybody do you end up being average
Plowman (what’s up?) man I feel what you’re saying
I’m not like my peers I had a better perspective
The fuckers couldn’t see it I was never accepted
The life I’m living now bitch you better respect it
One life for the future one life for the past
Nothing for the present ‘cause the present doesn’t last
You cruisin’ with the brakes? I’m slammin’ on the gas
You living for right now bitch you end up getting lapped
Now y’all saying you hating your jobs
No time for your dreams? Won’t even take a day off
I speak for myself I decided who I’m going to be
Day by day week by week I feel it getting close to me
[Hook - Plowman]
Here I am rapping like it’s just you and me
One life for yourself and one life for your dreams
Here I am rapping like it’s just you and me
One life for yourself and one life for your dreams
