[Pre-Chorus]
All but a hero with a cape
Mauled by the citizens at bay
Enthralled they get comedy from pain
That's what they gain, just wait
That's what they gain, just wait
Saw a monstrosity in wake
Of all, they claim that they ain't create
Brawled with the critics he can't shake
Wasn't born yesterday, just wait
Wasn't born yesterday, just wait

[Chorus]
This what happens when a legend makes a name
They'll throw you off your game, and you won't look at them the same
This what happens when a legend takes the reigns
You can't disrespect the legacy and not expect your fate
This what happens when a legend makes a name
They'll throw you off your game, and you won't look at them the same
This what happens when a legend takes the reigns
You can't disrespect the legacy and not expect your fate

[Verse 1]
I know how this might sound, but I'm on a choppin' block
And if you got a weak stomach, I don't think you'll wanna watch
You just might see something very gritty like a botch
Raising eyebrows like The Rock, trust me, this wasn't a spot
I do it all with a smile, knowin' y'all in denial
It has been a long while, count the days
What do you make of your life?
It could be taken despite you tryna rage 'gainst the light; no one's safe
Won't sacrifice for the plan, I don't watch for the plot
Already know how it ends, pullin' out all the stops
'Cause this is for the shock value
So, this is what it's come down to?
I heard Hell is hot, I got a herd in the drop zone
Word on the street is you'll rot, worms in your box, foes
Won't be on top, no more, you can't swap roles
This is gonna be your newfound humble abode
[Pre-Chorus]
All but a hero with a cape
Mauled by the citizens at bay
Enthralled they get comedy from pain
That's what they gain, just wait
That's what they gain, just wait
Saw a monstrosity in wake
Of all, they claim that they ain't create
Brawled with the critics he can't shake
Wasn't born yesterday, just wait
Wasn't born yesterday, just wait

[Chorus]
This what happens when a legend makes a name
They'll throw you off your game, and you won't look at them the same
This what happens when a legend takes the reigns
You can't disrespect the legacy and not expect your fate
This what happens when a legend makes a name
They'll throw you off your game, and you won't look at them the same
This what happens when a legend takes the reigns
You can't disrespect the legacy and not expect your fate

[Verse 2]
They gon' pledge their fealty, I'ma be their deity
On some 'toughest S.O.B', their worth don't mean much to me
Got a god complex, head as big as my crown
Don't make eye contact, my penance stare will have you wound
Up somewhere
I'm talking dirt, in the ground
I ain't from around here, I call to action, mutt who hounds
Had my story watered down, so I had to waterboard and get my answers, let 'em drown in their own BS, with candor
I will not accept the slander
Give 'em IBS, that's for those with loose lips
I don't think that I need rest, I'm tying up the loose ends
Can't obstruct my protests, laid a giant goose egg
Sayin' that I'm too grotesque; when did I ask, and who said?
What I'm introducing's a little bit of anarchy
And what am endorsin' is riots for this hierarchy
For what's soon to be transpiring
It's gon' be in light of me
They'll have a statue to remember my entirety
[Bridge]
I can make 'em disappear like they did me (Legend, legend)
I said, I can make 'em disappear like they did me (What?)
Let's start a legend (Legend, whoa!)
I can make 'em disappear like they did me (Legend, legend)
I said, they'll wonder if you really real (What?)
Let's start a legend (Legend, whoa!)

[Chorus]
This what happens when a legend makes a name
They'll throw you off your game, and you won't look at them the same
This what happens when a legend takes the reigns
You can't disrespect the legacy and not expect your fate
