rory (rab) holmes - legacy loading… lyrics

(verse 1)

i’ve been payin’ dues, put my time in the flame
sacrificed sleep just to sharpen the name
lost a few friends, but i gained in the game
every scar on my soul got me winnin’ with aim
now they all watch like it happened insane
but the cost of the climb was the price of the pain
sh+t i ain’t been the same

clock tickin’, i ain’t slept since the vision got loud
took the long road solo, now i’m leadin’ the crowd
kept receipts in my head from the ones that would doubt
now my name hold weight when the real ones shout
get out the way, you can’t hold me down

(verse 2)

built this from the bas+m+nt, no cheat code path
just notebooks full of stress and a beat that slaps
had to cut ties, stay clean like dexter’s lab
now i’m surgical with words — every punchline stab

left the past in the smoke, now i breathe on tracks
had to boss up quiet, no need for plaques
they was sleepin’ on the kid, now they fiend for facts
’cause i write it like a script — every scene intact
turned pain to precision, now the blade come clean
like a widescreen shot, cuttin’ through the routine
from the underdog’s bench to the rap machine
now i pop off like a marvel scene

flipped loss to a lesson, turned the doubt to a spark
while they faded in the fog, i was glowin’ in dark
no gimmicks, just bars, from the soul i embark
every verse hold weight like noah’s ark

took hits to the pride, kept the ego in check
now i’m cashin’ out time, not chasin’ a check
kept it raw, kept it real, what’d you really expect?
greatness cost blood — i just paid in respect

back when the speakers barely bumped my flow
now it’s bangers on deck like i’m runnin’ death row
every setback lit a fuse, now i’m ready to blow
made peace with the pain, had to let that go

now i’m prime like i’m optimus, set to reload
every verse like a blade — i got the code
(hook)

ayy — from the stress to the stage, i was built in the fire
paid dues in the dark just to spark that wire
no gimmicks in the game, i don’t cap, i inspire
got the heat in my soul and the pen never tires
from the couch to the come+up, now i’m passin’ the liars
flow sharp like shredder when the beat requires
they was watchin’ me burn, now they stuck in the mire
‘i paid for this throne with hunger and fire

(verse 3)

sacrificed sleep, gave my soul to the craft
now the booth’s like church — i confess in the draft
from the shadows i rose, now they feelin’ the wrath
i was built in the fire, been a product of path

got scars on my name that’ll never fade
but i stand on the weight like a barbell plate
i don’t rap for the trends or the chart debate
i rap ’cause i bleed — and the ink translate

ain’t no overnight rise, had to grind through fate
took the hits, made armor outta every mistake
now i step in the booth like i’m shiftin’ the state
every word hit hard like a soprano debate

had to part from the crowd, couldn’t follow that path
now i’m cookin’ with a vengeance — walter white with the math
they was jokin’ on the dream, now they after’ my cash
tryna figure out how i leveled with this fire i stash
i was broke, still spittin’ like a forbes list threat
they was flexin’ for the ’gram, i was buildin’ respect
now i walk in a room and the vibe gets checked
’cause i came from the gutter with a cause and a rep

now i’m tapped in deep, like i hacked the net
while they stuck in reruns like a basic set
got a squad full of hearts, not a face to vet
got a mind full of bars that they ain’t heard yet
so back up while i bomb this sh+t, ain’t no threat
had to carve my lane where the nonsense sits, now i’m launchin’ hits like a contra glitch

(hook)

from the couch to the come+up, now i’m passin’ the liars
flow sharp like shredder when the beat requires
they was watchin’ me burn, now they stuck in the mire
‘i paid for this throne with hunger and fire
