Your face is all I ever see on this crowded street Like no one's watching you don't care to act a fool with me You made me dance in public trippin' on my own two feet Just like a drum my heart is jumping like a trampoline No where to wash away my worries like the angry sea Having a good old time never been on the edge of my seat It's raining lava got me sweating I can feel the heat The fires ragging no telling what's bout to come for me If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If the lights go out I'm forever in your memory If I die tonight at least I left a legacy It's true the eyes are the windows of a person's soul It's like I'm staring in the mirror when I look at you I turn the heavens down if the devil came for you I'd rather go through hell or high waters Yeah it's true If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If the lights go out I'm forever in your memory If I die tonight at least I left a legacy Your face is all I ever see on this crowded street Like no one's watching you don't care to act a fool with me You made me dance in public trippin' on my own two feet Just like a drum my heart is jumping like a trampoline. If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If the lights go out I'm forever in your memory If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If the lights go out I'm forever in your memory If I die tonight at least I left a legacy If I die tonight at least I left a legacy
