Seeds

Kalligraphy's Notes
Cried writing this
Take earned money and spread it ‘cross families
Pass it down through the roots of our tree
I wanna clean up our cities streets and help
You see I can make a difference in lives other than myself
I might even start my own school, maybe an institute
Maybe start a team, maybe, but it’s a dream
This peace-built water flowing like sobriety
Imma start my society within society
And it’s major, just like you and me
There was a time where I wasn’t in line
That time is back, it’s called being confined
Generational currency, that’s the key
My grandfather ain’t have shit, so that shift happened in my family
My grandpa moved from Europe to make dimes, uh
That was the riskiest part of my moms life, uh
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Family excellence, ay, I’m gon let em see
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
My excellency, baby, I’m gon let em see
I was listening to Hov and he was referencing Wu
“Your seed, marry his seed, my marry seed”
That’s how we keep Marchildon money all in the family
See, my father, son of a religious fam
Who couldn’t escape the forced evangelism, damn
I feel like even that moment set my father back
Still taking him time to heal up back, in fact
He hates religion but know it’s a mission
To keep it in our family for foundational wisdom
Now maybe I don’t see that as a workin system
Maybe someday I’ll forgive him, cuz basically
He stepped away from learning from Muslims, buddhists and Christian’s
He was tryna cover that part up while they could have game him wisdom
See how Gods universe works?
It’s a cheap gift and an expensive curse
That’s where I feel like I need I work
Rappers run so much to keep their place
I just maintain their pace, maintain their pace
Yall run so hard just to stay in place
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Family excellence, ay, I’m gon let em see
Legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
My excellency, baby, I’m gon let em see
