Lyrics
Let the BandPlay John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, heh When I die, I just wanna be a legend White roses on my headstone and my name in golden carets 'cause uh When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, heh When I die, I just wanna be a legend White roses on my headstone and my name in golden carets 'cause uh When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend, gonna live past twenty-seven With them gates out front of my house so pearly white you'll think it's heaven Still rockin' clothes lookin' ratchet like I don't give a shit 'Cause once upon a time I's scrounging for that slick eighty cents And I cherished the times I counted the nickels to feed my stomach Then my family made me hungry 'cause I hated the strugglin' I quit my job in construction, I took a huge leap of faith And now they know the dude that's rappin' with that gap in his face (Upchuch!) John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, huh When I die, I just wanna be a legend White roses on my headstone and my name in golden carets 'cause uh When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend And when I'm gone my f*ckin' jams will still be jammin' And all my fans will still be out here tearin' shit up raisin' hell and yellin' Let my sound waves live a thousand years, I'll still jam as a skeleton 'cause When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend And I ain't used to this life, but hell I'm willin' to take it If I'm gonna be famous then I guess I'm makin' statements 'Cause there was times my transportation was these boots on the pavement And now I'm ridin' in dually's dipped in that pearlescent paint For years before my Billboard charts my mama kept me believin' I told her I'd fight for success until my damn heart stopped the beatin' From now to then it's opposite on how these populars treat me Still Johnny Cash with middle fingers sayin' f*ck a celebrity John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, huh When I die, I just wanna be a legend White roses on my headstone and my name in golden carets 'cause uh When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend And when I'm gone my f*ckin' jams will still be jammin' And all my fans will still be out here tearin' shit up raisin' hell and yellin' Let my sound waves live a thousand years, I'll still jam as a skeleton 'cause When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend Small town, shine sippin', tailgate dumpin' when the beat drop Churchman-level high, all my haters need binoculars Because I was a nobody now I'm the beast of the pines I got evicted from duplexes, now I got shooters on dial I'm just two barefeet walkin', tiptoein' through all of these snakes But stayin' humble to my people I'm the king of the sticks And I'll live up under a bridge before I go sell my soul You know I'm goin' for gold, the best story that's ever told John Lennon, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, huh When I die, I just wanna be a legend White roses on my headstone and my name in golden carets 'cause uh When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend And when I'm gone my f*ckin' jams will still be jammin' And all my fans will still be out here tearin' shit up raisin' hell and yellin' Let my sound waves live a thousand years, I'll still jam as a skeleton 'cause When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend When I die I'm gonna be a f*ckin' legend
