Legend in the Nest
• Written by Young_Devon
(Hook)
Legend in the nest, I been patient with the flex
Eagle with the vision, I ain’t worried 'bout the rest
Clock still tickin', I been sharpenin' the tech
When I swoop down, better show me some respect
Legend in the nest, yeah I’m built for the test
Did it on my own, I don’t fly with the rest
Wingspan wide, I was made to invest
Bars so cold, make the sun second guess
🎤 Verse 1
I was chillin’ with the pros, took notes, never froze,
Now I'm lockin' in my goals while they postin’ for the scrolls.
They was talkin’ top ten, I was thinkin’ generational,
Had to learn the fundamentals now the pen's sensational.
Every bar tight like the sneakers on the court,
Had to grind through the lows just to shine without support.
I don’t move loud, I just move with a purpose,
Y’all was trending, I was training, now I’m flippin’ all the verses.
🔁 Hook (Repeat)
Legend in the nest, I been patient with the flex
Eagle with the vision, I ain’t worried 'bout the rest
Clock still tickin', I been sharpenin' the tech
When I swoop down, better show me some respect
Legend in the nest, yeah I’m built for the test
Did it on my own, I don’t fly with the rest
Wingspan wide, I was made to invest
Bars so cold, make the sun second guess
🎤 Verse 2
Big drip, no spill, I maneuver with skill,
If you fake it just to make it, you ain't really got the will.
I was raised where you hustle, not just stunt for the thrill,
Now the flow worth a mil', but the hunger still real.
Never needed gimmicks, just a mic and a pad,
And some silence in the room while I think about the bag.
Ain’t no cap in my quotes, just a strap on the truth,
Now I’m flyin' out the nest tell 'em Young Devon proof.
🎤 Verse 3
I ain’t here for the flash, I’m here for the name,
I’m the one they overlook till I step in the frame.
Now the views go up every time I explain,
How I rose from the bench to the hall of the game.
They was pressin’ for fame, I was pressin' for truth,
I don’t post for reactions — I just step in the booth.
Now it’s Young Devon, remember the tag,
They gon’ quote what I said, not just show what I had.
🎶 Bridge (Melodic Switch-Up)
I stayed down, ten toes in the coldest night,
Waited for my time, now the glow hit right.
You was tryna trend, I was tryna transcend,
Now the story gettin’ told when the credits end.
🔁 Alternate Hook Version
Legend in the nest, I been quiet, now I’m loud,
Feathers never flash, but I’m flyin’ through the crowd.
Did it with the hustle, never needed the clout,
When I land, they gon’ know what I’m about.
Legend in the nest, yeah it’s deeper than gold,
Every bar that I spit got a purpose and soul,
They just playin’ the part — I been playin’ the whole,
Built for the weight, I was made for the role.
🎤 Outro
Legend in the nest, yeah I’m built for the test
Did it all on my own, I don’t fly with the rest...
