10 Legacy
[00:02.66] Daddy, what's a will?
[00:12.41] Take those moneys and spread 'cross families
[00:14.66] My sisters, Hattie and Lou, the nephews, cousins and TT
[00:17.91] Eric, the rest to B for whatever she wants to do
[00:20.16] She might start an institute
[00:21.91] She might put poor kids through school
[00:24.42] My stake in Roc Nation should go to you
[00:26.66] Leave a piece for your siblings to give to their children too
[00:29.66] TIDAL, the champagne, D'USSÉ, I'd like to see
[00:32.16] A nice peace-fund ideas from people who look like we
[00:35.41] We gon' start a society within a society
[00:38.55] That's major, just like the Negro League
[00:42.05] There was a time America wouldn't let us ball
[00:43.69] Those times are now back, just now called Afro-tech
[00:48.19] Generational wealth, that's the key
[00:50.19] My parents ain't have shit, so that ship started with me
[00:53.44] My mom took her money, she bought me bonds
[00:57.19] That was the sweetest thing of all time, uh
[00:59.69] Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
[01:02.94] Black excellence baby, you gon' let 'em see

[01:13.44] I've been listenin' to Wu-Tang and niggas like
[01:16.44] "Your seed, married his seed, married my seed"
[01:20.19] That's how we keep Carter money all in the family
[01:23.44] You see, my father, son of a preacher man
[01:26.69] Whose daughter couldn't escape the reach of the preacher's hand
[01:29.69] That charge of energy set all the Carters back
[01:32.19] It took all these years to get to zero in fact
[01:35.19] I hated religion 'cause here was this Christian
[01:37.94] He was preachin' Sundays, versus how he was livin' Monday
[01:41.94] Someday I forgive him
[01:43.33] 'Cause strangely our division led to multiple religions
[01:46.58] I studied Muslim, Buddhist, and Christians
[01:49.83] And I was runnin' from him, He was givin' me wisdom
[01:53.83] See how the universe works?
[01:55.73] It takes my hurt and help me find more of myself
[02:00.48] It's a gift and a curse
[02:02.98] That's called the red queens race
[02:05.48] You run this hard just to stay in place
[02:08.12] Keep up the pace, baby
[02:09.87] Keep up the pace
[02:11.37] You run this hard just to stay in place
[02:14.12] Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
[02:16.87] Black excellence, you gon' let 'em see
[02:19.62] Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
[02:22.62] Black excellency, baby, let 'em see
