Legacy
Disciple (D.I.) Lyrics

When I die tell me who is gon
Asking who will be present at their funeral

When I die tell me who is gon remember me
Questioning who will remember them after they pass away

See lately been in the coldest place
Expressing a feeling of being in a dark and difficult place

Wonder if I die would I even leave a trace
Questioning their impact on the world after they pass away

See to remember me they gon have to freeze my face
Humorously suggesting that their face should be preserved for people to remember them

I just wanna know if anyone really relates
Expressing a desire for their music to connect with others

That's just how it goes
Acknowledging the inevitability of life's challenges

Everyday we face things don't nobody know
Highlighting the fact that people often deal with struggles alone

And everyday we go and fight this beast called life
Describing life as a difficult and ongoing battle

Fighting demons on the outs and the ones inside
Suggesting that people face internal and external obstacles

Let that sit for a bit
Encouraging the listener to reflect on the previous lines

Nah
Disagreeing with the idea that they have 'made it' in the music industry

See I know I gotta long way to go
Admitting that they still have much to accomplish

And maybe you'll understand
Offering insight to the listener

Yeah I'm gon make mistakes that just makes me a man
Acknowledging that making mistakes is a part of being human

Better prep for them lows
Advising to prepare for difficult times

Cause when they come they gon hit hard you better not fold
Encouraging to persevere through tough times

Been back and forth between leave me alone
Expressing a desire for solitude and feeling neglected by friends

And wondering why all my homies ain't hitting my phone
Questioning why friends are not reaching out

But what can I do
Acknowledging a feeling of helplessness

Constantly failing at every single thing I pursue
Describing a pattern of failure

You do this music for money and fame
Addressing the motivation for creating music

I guarantee you, you really shouldn't be doing this thing
Suggesting that money and fame should not be the primary motivation for creating music

Like the quietest storm
Comparing fame to an unexpected storm

Be ready, now that's just how I was taught
Advising to be prepared for unexpected change

Now when I die what am I gon leave behind
Asking what legacy they will leave behind

So future people could know me for more than measly rhymes
Desiring to be remembered for something more substantial than just music

I got no money and I'm short on land
Expressing lack of material wealth

But if that's all you got then maybe you misunderstand
Suggesting that material possessions are not a true measure of a person's worth

Now I'm leaving you proof for belief
Promising to provide evidence of something worth believing in

Most importantly when I die I'm leaving you peace
Desiring to create a sense of peace or calm in others

Money and cars will come and they go
Highlighting the impermanence of material possessions

But the words I'm speaking to you will be burned in your soul
Describing the lasting impact of their words

Can't take the heat, then step away from the fire
Advising to avoid situations that are too difficult to handle

My words inspire, a Legacy that will never expire
Believing that their words will continue to inspire and impact others long after they are gone
