The Legacy
Intro: Melachi The Nutcracker

Yo this is the Nutcracker, youknawhatI'mmsayin?
I got my man Lil Dap, and my man Guru from Gang Starr
With my man DJ Premier on the track
So sit back, and hold your head
And witness the legacy of street knowledge
KnawhatImean?

{Guru}
Once again, it's the gang from the Group Home
Watch out we two grown
Little n***as, blackin out on your ass, in the new zone
Using new chrome, to settle beef and cop a new home
The realest history, time to seal this victory
Mastermind, one of a kind, that's why the chicks stick to me
And sick to me, the way my voice melts the track
Giving MC's fifty lashes, puttin welts on their backs
Why you talkin all that, I'm with Dap in the hoopdy
Plottin on your weirdos, cuz most of y'all are male groupies
Throw you some panties, for you femenine side
Im flippin on you, fuck my gentleman side
I'm gettin bent and then ride, straight to where you rest
Vigilante shots, thunder going straight through you vest
So much anger, but you thought you knew me best
We live a legacy, and yo I'm thankful to be blessed (*echo*)
Chorus: Melachi The Nutcracker, Guru (repeat 1.5X)

Superior, all soldiers are obedient
Rewards are sure, any fools shall face punishment
You wanna infiltrate the premise, dead your residence
We live a legacy, real n***as will remember us

[["Hold It Down"]] - Inspectah Deck

{Lil Dap}
Uh, see love is stronger then pride
Now n***as, open your eyes and drop a jewel
All these n***as think that they fly
The sounds from the streets, make mebright and unique
And Lil Dap will knock ya dead ass of your feet
My legend speaks for itself, from the very ambitious
N***as keep dissing, trying to keep my ass out of prison
Feel what I feel, in the streets you know shit is real
You know the deal, and natural fact you gotta pack steel
But back in the days, you couldn't even act like that
You can get slapped, reactin on somebodies lyrics blaq
My legacy is long, like an Acura Legend, just begone
Vibin thru the ghetto with bombs
N***as watch out, you heard the horns from Brook-lan
But sacrifice my arm just for the game of hip hop
So what's your beef? A leader not a follower
Check me out, The Legacy baby, no doubt, no doubt, no doubt
Chorus 2X

{Guru}
I'm sorry
Is all you have to say
Cuz your bitch ass can't come back around the way
This form of hip hop, drip drops constantly
From my mind to the wax, spiritual kinetic energy
Can't turn me off and on with a lever
I'm too clever, my crew sever, never
Rumors said that O.G. was washed up, nah I live forever
Born royal blood, The Legacy we trendsetters

{Lil Dap}
Yo, you know me, me and my East New York representatives
Battle with scars, just so you n***as who we are
Remember back in the days when the clubs used to rock
Be the shit that strong rhymin, have you shook and amazed
Cuz these were the days, you couldn't even wear your loop chain
Now watch these lames, try to pick with my brain
So check my undertone, watch you suck that ass up, yo
Me and The Nutcracker, and we're on the go

Chorus 1.5X
