[Intro]

Yeah

[Pre-Chorus]

When I pull up on a nigga tell that nigga back, back

I'm too good with these words, watch a nigga backtrack

If I die, all I know is I'm a mothafuckin' legend

It's too late for my city, I'm the youngest nigga reppin'

[Chorus]

Oh my God, oh my God, if I die, I'm a legend

Oh my God, oh my God, if I die, I'm a legend

[Verse 1]

I'm up first, I'm on tour, got a girl, she from the South

Used to work, used to dance in Texas, now she clean the house

Everyday, I was strugglin' to learn what life's about

On my way, money taught me Spanish, make it ándale

Way up north, packed in Honda cars

They don't know who we are

Fuck 'em all, they only pussy niggas shootin' at the star

Right or wrong, I'ma write my wrongs

They can't live this long

You don't know where you're gonna go

I got this shit mapped out strong

[Pre-Chorus]

When I pull up on a nigga tell that nigga back, back

I'm too good with these words, watch a nigga backtrack

All I know, if I die, I'm a mothafuckin' legend

It's too late for my city, I'm the youngest nigga reppin'

[Chorus]

Oh my God, oh my God, if I die, I'm a legend

Oh my God, oh my God, if I die, I'm a legend

[Verse 2]

I'm the one, one

Why do I feel like the only one?

Why do I feel like you owe me one?

6 G-O-D, I'm the holy one

Yeah, you know wassup, yeah

They been off for a minute now

You know they all sentimental now

You know they all actin' different now

And I, I just can't pretend

Seen too much, it's so hard for me to let new people in

I can't change, this shit set in stone

They can't live this long

You don't know where you're gonna go

I got this shit mapped out strong

[Pre-Chorus]

When I pull up on a nigga tell that nigga back, back

I'm too good with these words, watch a nigga backtrack

All I know, if I die, I'm a mothafuckin' legend

It's too late for my city, I'm the youngest nigga reppin'

[Chorus]

Oh my God, oh my God, if I die, I'm a legend

Oh my God, oh my God, if I die, I'm a legend

[Outro]

I'm the one
