[Chorus: Flowzus]

When I'm gone, will they see my impact?

Is my legacy strong? Will I keep it in tact?

Fit my whole lifespan, so nicely in a plan

And they said to be the man, so you know I been that

When I'm gone, sing songs that I wrote long ago

Let my stories all fall in a row, domino

When I'm gone, will they see my impact?

They said to be the man, so you know I been that


[Verse 1: Flowzus]

So you know I'm in my head with every single heartbeat

Coughing out my chest, that feel pointed like some shark teeth

Just a tiny pain when I put my daughter in her car seat

Now it's in my brain, every millisecond harm me

I been wondering bout every grim occurrence

I made 20,000 hits, you know that's still not life insurance

So I wake up for my kid

If I don't leave her any riches, I'll still lavish her in lessons

But every Ken Jennings still be stressing over chequing

If half my heroes dead, the other half are cautionary tales

Where am I to land when they recount my life as fairytale?

Where will I be situated after all my breathing's done?

Viscous blood, dormant in defeated lungs

Now when I decline a line, my mind's on Miller

I want no past tense, baby, I'm half-dead living

Up in a trapped headspace, the rat race dirty

I'm missing my youth, truth, I'm damn near thirty


[Verse 2: Ktriggs]

All that pressure was applied

Can't tell if it's by design

I stay busy working even after quitting time

Used to be the guest but now I guess the house is mine

Got a verse for every rival

Like a scripture out the bible

Never picture me an idol

I'm just going for the title

Leave 'em sweating my arrival

Window to the soul, it's like looking through some stained glass

Must be while the pain last

Only made an impact

If I was in a plane crash

Always on road so you ain't about the same path

People turned on me, look who's waiting on the payback

In the fast lane, I got plans to by the Maybach

Real been hard to find, I'm the needle in a haystack


[Chorus]

When I'm gone, will they see my impact?

Is my legacy strong? Will I keep it in tact?

Fit my whole lifespan, so nicely in a plan

And they said to be the man, so you know I been that

When I'm gone, sing songs that I wrote long ago

Let my stories all fall in a row, domino

When I'm gone, will they see my impact?

They said to be the man, so you know I been that
