behan the scene - legend (2017) lyrics
[intro]
i’m a living legend
tell your stories, at your discretion
legend has it, these lies cover up the truth
yeah!
[verse 1]
known to be ignorant
appear to be hostile
said to be full of neglect and always in denial
seems now, i’m portrayed to be senile
somehow, y’all think i’m not me
they quick just to profile, don’t cl!ck to this lifestyle
they stick just to see how i might just turnout
you mumble my name, throw me in a dust pile
they look like they’ve witnessed a ghost ‘causе i’m here now
i’ve еviscerated every tree in the forest; now am i harmless?
thing is that wasn’t a threat; it’s just a promise
i mean, is there anything yet that’s not demolished
you’ve really sold my stories, well it’s time to stop ya
you can go ahead and put that nail right in the coffin
’cause there ain’t none left for me to bury, so pay your homage
(your dues, i’ll reap)
i got the heart of a beast
the blood of a minotaur, yeah
[chorus]
legend has it: i’m not always tellin’ the truth
but if you were me, what’s the difference with you?
you don’t believe in the stories, won’t you come fill my shoes?
legend has it: i’m not always tellin’ the truth
but if you were me, what’s the difference with you?
you don’t believe in the stories, won’t you come fill my shoes?
[verse 2]
known to be arrogant
sound like a pessimist
i just keep wreckin’ it, not to be reckoned with
can’t smooth my edges, i’m barred to be social with
you’re losing reception
“he’s rugged, mere sullenness,” they mumble in utterance
sayin’ i’m troublesome, yet i’m still coveted?
stay throwing shade on my shadow, why you act humblest?
i’m a living legend
i guess i’m not exactly what you’ve expected
but, i’m more and nothing less than
be careful when you bring up my name in a sentence
i’ve learned to dance in the rain, you still feel threatened
i live up to my hype, y’all get deceptive
be careful you might have stepped into a situation
you could’ve left in
not to be messed with, i reject to be accepted
some sit at a camp fire, tell stories of me
you’re breaking out an unwary wanted
you want the real deal? confront him
don’t whisper in my ear, no slumpin’
all along it’s been made clear
you bluffed it, ah
[chorus]
legend has it: i’m not always tellin’ the truth
but if you were me, what’s the difference with you?
you don’t believe in the stories, won’t you come fill my shoes?
legend has it: i’m not always tellin’ the truth
but if you were me, what’s the difference with you?
you don’t believe in the stories, won’t you come fill my shoes?
[bridge]
they on mythical assumptions
i see, they always fail to get the job done
way i see it, some want me dead gone
anything you hear about me’s dead wrong
[interlude]
in my darkest hour, every strain of light is blinded by the shadows of people’s shade
thing is, when i’m present, i hear silent absence in the distance
i can hear the fear and blare in their breathing patterns, nervously, the guilt in their soul
what they have yet to realize is legends come in many forms
but i am no hero, celebrity, athlete or god
i’ve become the legend you’ve chit+chattered ’bout around the fallen bristles of smoke bestowed above the campfire
eatin’ your popcorn, roastin’ your s’mores
i’m a livin’ legend that roams earth and lurks about lies
and a dweller in these occurrences
the aftermath will be legendary
[chorus]
legend has it: i’m not always tellin’ the truth
but if you were me, what’s the difference with you?
you don’t believe in the stories, won’t you come fill my shoes?
legend has it: i’m not always tellin’ the truth
but if you were me, what’s the difference with you?
you don’t believe in the stories, won’t you come fill my shoes?
[bridge]
they on mythical assumptions
i see, they always fail to get the job done
way i see it, some want me dead gone
anything you hear about me’s dead wrong
they on mythical assumptions
i see, they always fail to get the job done
way i see it, some want me dead gone
anything you hear about me’s dead wrong
