Lyrics
MY LEGACY
Words and music by Rick Amburgey & Chris Sligh
VERSE 1:
I ain’t done
Gotta lotta livin’ left to do
But lately I’ve been tryna
Think about the kinda
World I wanna leave behind for you
PRE-CHORUS:
Cuz all the money I could save
Won’t get me what I need
Piling up a buncha things
That ain’t a legacy
Chorus:
Every smile, every conversation
Every story passed to down to the next generation
Every picture, every memory
That outlives me is gonna be
My legacy
POST:
Every time you remember me
That’ll be my legacy
When you raise one to our memories
That’ll be my legacy
VERSE 2:
Life ain’t long
And we got no control of when we go
So I never wanna wonder
If the dash between the numbers
Was lived right, yeah I wanna know
That…
REPEAT CHORUS * POST-HOOK
BRIDGE:
I hope you’ll play these songs for your children
And I hope people don’t forget ‘em, cuz…
REPEAT CHORUS
Tag:
I believe
You’re my legacy
