歌词
Yeah, uh
这是一段传奇
Yeah
成为传奇一直是我的目标，老子永远拒接平庸
Yeah, uh
每个一月都在变好，这进步快的让人害怕（joey和j.cole都是1月份出生，j.cole的january 28中表达过自己的雄心）
Yeah
他们终将会意识到我会成为传奇，如果那些人不愿承认，我就用实际来证明
This is legendary
我发誓我将被历史铭记（是的，是的）
Always been my mission, never secondary
我现在精神高亢，神采奕奕（嗨起来）
Gettin' better every January, it's very scary
来吧哥们，蹦上咱的飞机，跟我一起腾云驾雾
They gon' recognize eventually, I take it if they don't give it to me
我希望你不仅相信我，也要相信自己的信念
Swear all of it was written for me (yep, yep)
我希望你平安健康，幸福安康
By a higher conscious spiritually (up, up)
我向许愿池许愿，因为我觉得愿望一定会实现（这里well我认为就是wishing well）
Up and away, jump on a plane, get on my wave right now
如果愿望没有实现我就永远无法见证的到
I want you believe not only in me, but have some faith in yourself
愿望的回响不会是一种噪音，也不会是一种声响，但我仍然坚信它会实现
I wish you peace and good health, happiness and some wealth
看看我的专辑销量吧，现在一直在大卖（sell、sale与cell读音相同，这里双关指大量黑人被关在监狱里）
I threw a coin in the well, 'cause I was feelin' so well
我用量子力学分析自己，数着自己有多少细胞
A token of how I felt, never heard if it fell
这就是我的生活，我的视野只放眼当下
Not a noise, not a sound, still no reason to doubt
别让囚徒的监狱成为我们种族的一个部分
Quality what I sell, quantity in the sales
我的哥哥在陷阱屋里贩毒，放风的卧底在街头监视（brick指白粉也指各种drug，所以brick house=trap house）
Quantum physics myself, count a million atoms of cells
你看不出这是个陷阱吗，兄弟？这是我的真实想法
This life I'm livin' it out, damn right, my vision is now
我感觉他们需要我的帮助，所以我要伸出援手
Don't let the prisoner cell build a strut to break out
我的兄弟正在街头贩毒，你认为我能为你们做些什么？（spell双关，轮班；joey也认为兄弟们贩毒而受到了上帝的诅咒）
My brothers at the brick house, the undercovers stakeout
我们黑人兄弟显然都活在水深火热之中
Can't you see it's a trap? The type of shit I think 'bout
老哥们都只敢外射，生怕被哪个婊子给敲诈勒索（black male和blackmail同音）
I sensed they needed my help, that's why I had to reach out
当你被抓的那天，监狱的大门在等着你的到来
What you think I do it for? My brothers under a spell
那时候你只有一个名字还有囚犯的编号，到时候你贩毒挣的钱对你来说也只是数字罢了
It's clear we livin' in hell, the life of a black male
我现在明白为什么我们黑人都那么穷了（指因为犯罪）
Right out the womb, you come out, and it's a bunch of blackmail
发财之路就像大富翁游戏，来给我买点房子（trap house，黑人们都快速发家致富，很多人走上了犯罪之路）
Just waitin' for you to fail, a special room in the jail
我永远不能不管不问，直到我安然入土的那天
With your name, a number on it so you property now
他们说我的生命即将走向尽头
I see it properly now, it's what the poverty 'bout
传奇，流芳百世
It's all a game of Monopoly, tryna cop me a house
英雄，接肘而至(这句出自MC Ren的Real Niggaz Don’t Die“Real niggaz don’t die ‘cause they eventually multiply)
An elephant in the room until I fit in my tomb
把你心中的火焰释放出来，直冲云霄
And introduced to my doom, they say the end comin' soon
它们会让天上的星光更加璀璨（这句疑似致敬已故的pro era成员Capital STEEZ）
Legends, they never die
传奇故事百口相传，他们一定会名垂千古
The niggas only multiply
英雄，接肘而至
So put your fire up in the sky
把你心中的火焰释放出来，直冲云霄
'Cause they won't ever kill the light
它们会让天上的星光更加璀璨（steez有句歌词“He took a leap of faith and only brightened his light”）
They say the legends, they never die
桌子在不停的转动，我到底该选择那一边？
The niggas only multiply
心中的火焰熊熊燃烧
So put your fire up in the sky
桌子在不停的转动，我到底该选择那一边？
'Cause they won't ever kill the light
心中的火焰已经无法抑制
Tables keep turning, which way do I go?
我已经准备好一切的到来
A fire's burning inside of my soul
我希望最好的会来到，我的舌头一直品尝着和平与祈福
Tables keep turning, which way do I go?
但是不久之后，这感觉停止了
A fire's burning inside my control
也许是我太傻了，就像那个被射杀的男孩只希望看见明天的太阳（12岁的黑人男孩玩玩具枪时被警察射杀，轰动一时）
Look, ready for whatever comes
也许人生就像潮汐
I hope for the best, I taste the peace and pray it never leave my tongue
上一刻你跌落低谷，暗自神伤，下一刻就到达了人生巅峰
But yet, before long, the feelings done
我对自己说要乘风破浪
Perhaps I was foolish, just like the boy that prays to only see the sun
找寻一个衡量我财富的方法
Maybe, life happens like tides
说实话，很多东西要去忍受
One minute you're low and feelin' shallow, then all of a sudden you rise
我正在数着钱，或许我应该分享一点
Just, ride the wave, I say to myself
一个男人需要多少钱？多少钱会让他变得贪婪？
Find a way, the weight of my wealth
一个富有的夫妻如何教育他的孩子谦虚做人（圣经中的Prodigal Son，浪子回头的故事）
It's honestly a lot to bear
这就是问题所在，刚愎自用会给自己带来严重的教训
I play the game of stackin' knowin' that I ought to share
我看着我拥有的一切，问自己“到底缺少了什么？”
How much does a man need? How much can he hoard before his greed?
上帝只是我的猜测，是的，信念可以缓解压力
How can a rich father teach humbleness to his seed?
当我找到了上帝，我再次找到了内心的平静，看见自己正在被他祝福
Just questions, the stubborn all get taught tough lessons
生活让我扪心自问：
I look at all I got like, "What's missin'?"
我做的真的对吗？
God is my only guess, 'cause yes, faith relieve the stress
我有没有伤害自己？
I find peace again when I find Him and see I'm blessed
我有没有错怪最爱我的人？
Real blessed, life has always got me wonderin'
我需要承担起什么样的责任？
(Wondering, wondering) Am I doin' it right?
总有办法生活下去
Am I hurtin' myself?
或者可能是这样
Am I wrongin' the ones that love me the most?
好吧，这只是一种可能
What a burden to have
桌子在不停的转动，我到底该选择那一边？
That ain't no way to live
心中的火焰熊熊燃烧
Or maybe it is
桌子在不停的转动，我到底该选择那一边？
Well, maybe it is
心中的火焰无法抑制
Tables keep turning, which way do I go?
传奇，流芳百世
A fire's burning inside of my soul
英雄，接肘而至
Tables keep turning, which way do I go?
把你心中的火焰释放出来，直冲云霄
A fire's burning inside my control
它们会让天上的星光更加璀璨
Legends, they never die
传奇故事百口相传，他们一定会名垂千古
The niggas only multiply
英雄，接肘而至
So put your fire up in sky
把你心中的火焰释放出来，直冲云霄
'Cause they won't ever kill the light
它们会让天上的星光更加璀璨
They say the legends, they never die
成为传奇一直是我的目标，老子永远拒接平庸
The niggas only multiply
每个一月都在变好，这进步快的让人害怕
So put your fire up in sky
这种想法令人害怕
'Cause they won't ever kill the light
我以必要的方式杀死我的敌人（引用Malcom X“By any means necessary.”）
This is legendary, it's never secondary
这就是传奇，不是普通的故事
I'm getting better every January
每个一月都在变好
The idea of it alone is very scary
这种想法令人害怕
I kill my enemies by any means necessary
我以必要的方式杀死我的敌人
I said, this is legendary, it's never secondary
Getting better every January
The idea of it alone is very scary
I kill my enemies by any means necessary
