HOUSE OF PAIN - Legend (Extended Mix) lyrics

rate me

I walk through the valley of death, 600 deep

Waking up dead from the sleep

Just like a diamond

Watch me shine

Bright like the sun

Make you wanna pull a gun

And buck 2 shots

For the peckerwood rockin'

Put down your glock

Or your block, I'll be knockin'

And dead off your shoulders

Head will roll

Peckerwood P

Funk assassin of soul

Is in control

So have no fear

I'm in this for real

Make it crystal clear

I get a little better each and every year

It's called improvement

Your style's a bowel movement

I'm taking you back to mount CulMcClarin

My whole family's stoned but there aint one sharin'

So whatcha looking at

Huh, why you starin'

Just take a picture

Before I have to hit ya

Ease back kid, gimme some space

Or Whoop there it is upside your face

[Chorus 1]

'Cause a hero aint nothin' but a sandwich

And a legend aint nothin' but a car

So shoot dope in your veins

And get some fame

And maybe one day you'll be a star

You know a hero aint nothin' but a sandwich

And a legend aint nothin' but a car

So go blow out your brains to get some fame

And maybe one day you'll be a star

I live in the house

And it's full of pain

But still out the frame

I'm going insane

I stay on point like a sniper

Chillin' in the viper room

Before it became a tomb

Take the low road

And you hit rock bottom

And keep low riding

All the way to Saddam

And back to Gamora

Now your senora

A pillar of salt

And it's all your fault

Get the S&M downtown

At the vault

Dirty little fuckup

Raising hell

But next year we'll all talk about how you fell

Because you're judged on how your records sell

[Chorus 2]

A hero aint nothin' but a sandwich

And a legend aint nothin' but a car

So get locked up in chains to get some fame

And maybe one day you'll be a star

You know a hero aint nothin' but a sandwich

And a legend aint nothin' but a car

So go blow out your brains to get some fame

And maybe one day you'll be a star

And maybe one day you be a star [4x]

Let's break it down

To the bear root essence

Count your fingers

Then count your blessings

True confessions

Ask the questions

Substitute your answers with your obsessions

I take to the break of dawn of time

I do it all the time

But you know it don't come easy

Cause I turn on the TV

I see more and more pain and less and less glory

And it's the same ol' story

Ya see year after year the programs sphered

But I aint subscribing

Till there's live executions on Pay-Per View

Word to Donahue

Put on Melrose Place

Whoop there it is upside your face

[Chorus 3]

Cause a hero aint nuthin but a sandwich

And a legend aint nuthin but a car

So shoot dope in our veins

To get that fame

And maybe one day you'll be a star

You know a hero aint nuthin but a sandwich

And a legend aint nuthin but a star

So go blow out your brains

Like Kurt Cobain

And maybe one day you'll be a star

Mabey one day you'll be a star [4x]
