Gone but never forgotten This song is for the true legends That paved the way Made a way Sacrificed I feel like I'm using the pen of Alex Hailey He taught many with his words And I want the same when you play me Things are crazy But I'm staying strong like Malcolm And if they X me out I stood tall against the outcome And how come It's ok to go overseas And fight for the home of the free But the same home of the free Don’t want us home and free And think n*gger every time they see me Word to M. Ali so I bob and weave And I never retreat On what I believe our leaders gave So we could receive And we could be more than our oppressors perceived You see they wanted us in a rut treated us like a mutt Even George Washington Carver knew it was nuts But to the past leaders yall are truly a blessing Sacrificed a lot And forever are legends I'm saying Rip legends never die Yesterday we were still together I’m sending a prayer up to heaven And I’m saying rip legends never die Part of our memory forever and ever Because legends never die I don't know where we would be without Dr. King Even now people still hating on his dream Maya Angelou, Rosa Parks Marcus Garvey, Ava Day Aaron Douglas, and William Carney Wouldn’t want us running around With a army only killing ourselves At a rate that’s alarming I mean did our ancestors bleed for nothing Who gone lead the discussion Who gone be the next Tubman Lead the modern slaves Breaking em out of chains Huey Newton was aware this wasn’t a game When the world calling you everything but your name Under your black skin there lies eternal flame Together we could fly like the airmen of Tuskegee Fly so high we are past where birds reaching We gotta thank the legends who emerged from the scuffle The marathon continues Rest in peace Nipsey Hussle I'm saying Rip legends never die Yesterday we were still together I’m sending a prayer up to heaven And I’m saying rip legends never die Part of our memory forever and ever Because legends never die Your bodies gone but your soul’s in the sky What you did will live on and never die You are the sun when the clouds start to cry You showed us what we can do if we try Your bodies gone but your soul’s in the sky What you did will live on and never die You are the sun when the clouds start to cry You showed us what we can do if we try Rip legends never die Yesterday we were still together I’m sending a prayer up to heaven And I’m saying rip legends never die Part of our memory forever and ever Because legends never die Because legends never die
