Legacy - The Trial [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Well junior, while all that is going on outside, on the inside it is the exact opposite. Very quiet. Very dismal. It seems they are going to proceed with the trial. The trail of L.E.G.A.C.Y. AKA Son Of Sam is being tried for the murder of R.egina A.ngela P.hillips. Things are about to get underway now. Oh, oh Leg's entering the courtroom

[Verse One]
Day one, slid in the court like "What the fuck now?"
I look a Nervous Wreck/Duck Down
Beside my attorney saying my prayers like confessions
They wanna burn me, hit me with the chair like wrestling
Splattered bleeding and shit
Wouldn't matter if I'm pleading the 5th
Take the stand, damn right I R.I.P.'d the bitch
Been trying to since 3rd Degree and shit
I Used To Love H.E.R. when my Sense was Common
I had to cut her, started to resent the drama
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury
She made me
Ignition of the fury
Her back turned, I grew angry
I whacked her, how could you blame me?
She tried to change me
At the club tried to champagne me
That really ain't me
That can't be
And now you people wanna hang me
Uh

[Hook] {X2}
I heard 'em
They want me to fail
For murder
They want me in jail
Give him the chair
They want me in Hell
Truth or dare
They want me to tell

[Verse Two]
Day two, L.E.G. on the stand
Please understand
I grew up on her, she made me sick
I damn near threw up on her
I vomited my consciousness
Words raged more brutal
Yo, I gave more to you
More memories than I could recollect
Have war with the industry, no regrets
What if something you believed in, started deceiving?
I thought and ate crazy shit
Lost my faith like atheists
I did shows for her
Switched flows for her
Stepped up my graffiti just for her to leave me
I felt abandoned for real
Your honor I had to kill
I sliced quick, heart cold when it ended
Word up, Khrysis, my co-defended
Eventually he took the stand
The trial of the century
The Son Of Sam

[Hook]

[Verse Three]
Day three the prosecution
Went for the heart, goin' for execution
They ripped me apart
Mr. Harper we know about D.L
In '99 he helped with 13 attempted murders on a bootleg
We heart it, we know it's true Leg
Then you tried to rape and kill rap
On K-Hill tracks
We know all about it
Even shine on those that doubted
We staked out and watched you
Made ham now we got you
The Son Of Sam is too dope
Plus we want Tommy Two Coats
Together you're too dangerous
Better than true angel dust
Everybody want the high now
Well, you're gonna fry now
Were his last words
And with my last urge
I faced the jury
They glazed through me
I bowed my head to 'em
Address the crowd and I said to 'em
"Yo she had to be murked
So hip hop could come back, it's kinda like a rebirth
Yeah I killed her but she killed me first
What the fuck though, feel me? I'm scarred."
Then the judge spoke
"Guilty as charged."
