Legacy by Common Dominant Lyrics
[Intro]
Tell me where to go, tell me what to do
I'll be right there for you
Tell me what to say, no matter if it’s true
I'll say it all for you
[Verse 1: WBP]
God I know it’s a been a long time but I am going to try and be honest
I know it's been awhile since I’ve been on it
Constantly veering left and swaying right losing sight
As I pray in this dark night Just show me a light
I’ve been deemed as worthless redeem me Lord for a purpose
That is greater than my worth
I want to just leave this earth
All its corruption and destruction
How can you save this calamity driving me to insanity
I struggle God with believing your works aren’t in vanity
Please help me come to grips to help humanity
With this voice give me no choice but to rejoice and proclaim the name that saves
The one that conquered the grave
The one that frees the slave
I believe but help my unbelief this disease of depression settles in
I cannot get it out whether demons
The world or my thoughts I cannot handle
I feel dismantled
Even in this verse I struggle between wanting to do good and showing my wicked soul
I give you control
I am burnt out of being confined by my double mind
How can I see yet be so blind
I need you king of kings to save me
Even though I can't speak eloquently but hey this is my story
My testimony, my legacy
[Hook]
Cause this is my legacy, legacy, yeah
This is my legacy, legacy, yeah
There's no guarantee, it’s not up to me, we can only see
This is my legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
[Verse 2: AnR]
God I'm thankful you're faithful
I know at times I'm ungrateful
And when I'm needing a savior I seem to just run to janitors
But they clean whats external
And I’m hurting here man
They couldn't clean my window pain with just a squeegee and can
And I know that they can't, because I've tried that myself
Humans depending on humans how will we get any where
Your goodness I left
Your promises I forget
Though I was in control, found myself in a remote place
And now I'm tryna get out if it
Lord help me escape it
I desperately need direction
Can't decide what road I'm taking
God I'm done with a compass
Please just be my Magellan
And with every passing day feel like my parents I've failed them
When you're failing you're learning
But it just feels like I'm failing
This Dream is inevitable but it's taking forever
Or am I really impatient
Wanna see the fruits of my labor
I know I just planted the seed but can't it be a tree already
With this I don't wanna be waiting but I’ll wait on my savior
You took my sins upon yourself that was more weight for my savior
I won't fall I won’t waver
That’s a promise broken right when i make it
Cause it's not me or my own strength
It's Gods and he's not flexing
Stopped my reliance on me
Helped me through all my things
Took away all my joints and brought me down to my knees
I wasn't seeing so clearly
Now let me see smiling faces
Lord let me leave that type of legacy that starts in a manger
[Hook]
Cause this is my legacy, legacy, yeah
This is my legacy, legacy, yeah
There's no guarantee, it’s not up to me, we can only see
This is my legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
[Verse 3: DnA]
Dear God, I think it’s time we had a conversation
I mess up a lot, feel like these lines are erasing
I been preaching your love and teaching bout purpose
But hates been building in me and I’ve felt so worthless
You’ve given me my desires and this sleepless fire
I don’t understand the depth of water I’m diving in
I wanna help every person but I’m so hurt and dying
I can’t change the world, my hurting leak out over people
I can’t change a thing surrounded by this evil
I can’t change a thing but you can God
I don’t want any glory for my story, I didn’t choose this
I wanted his story but if we all got what we wanted
We’d all be history
All be misery, earthquake, fissure in me
Break me to speak to them
This isn’t about me, God daily rebirth your fire in me
Your love is so perfectly and my love is so worthless
So rip my heart out and put yours in my place
I wanna change the world but I can’t even face
That sometimes I’m the one who brings the dark and hate
My heart aches, I don’t wanna stomach that
I don’t wanna own that, I never wanna hone that
God I want you and I need you
‘Cause I’m nothing without you, everything I do is about you
[Hook]
Cause this is my legacy, legacy, yeah
This is my legacy, legacy, yeah
There's no guarantee, it’s not up to me, we can only see
This is my legacy, legacy, legacy, legacy
Tell me where to go, tell me what to do
I'll be right there for you
Tell me what to say, no matter if it’s true
I'll say it all for you
