A Legacy for You (Remix)

(Soft acoustic guitar melody enters)

July 13th, the night is deep and still

Eleven-nineteen, I'm watching you both sleep

Onyedikachi, Chikasirmobi

Everything I do, it’s all for you

I look at your faces in the dim moonlight

And I promise to make everything alright

The world is spinning fast, but here you are

My guiding lights, my brightest shining stars

I’m working through the shadows of the day

Just to make sure that you find a better way

Than the road I walked, than the hills I climbed

I’m carving out a future, leaving pain behind

Onyedikachi, my precious son

Chikasirmobi, the race has just begun

I love you more than words could ever define

I’m building a kingdom that will be all thine

A life superior, a path so bright

I’m praying for you both through every single night

Yeah, I’m working for the dream, for the life you deserve

Every beat of my heart, every single nerve

I know the burden that I carry on my back

But I stay focused, I never lose the track

I want you standing where I could never reach

Learning the lessons that I try to teach

No struggle for you, no hunger, no tears

I’m trading my labor for your golden years

It's July 2026, the timestamp of my vow

I’m living for the future, not just for the now

Onyedikachi, my precious son

Chikasirmobi, the race has just begun

I love you more than words could ever define

I’m building a kingdom that will be all thine

A life superior, a path so bright

I’m praying for you both through every single night

Yeah, I’m working for the dream, for the life you deserve

Every beat of my heart, every single nerve

May the heavens guard your footsteps while you grow

May you reap the harvest that I sow

If I stumble, you rise, if I fail, you win

That’s the legacy of love I’m folding in

To your hearts, to your souls, to the men you'll be

Keep this song of mine as your memory

Onyedikachi, my precious son

Chikasirmobi, the race has just begun

I love you more than words could ever define

I’m building a kingdom that will be all thine

A life superior, a path so bright

I’m praying for you both through every single night

Yeah, I’m working for the dream, for the life you deserve

Every beat of my heart, every single nerve

Sleep tight my sons, the morning is coming

Everything is for you, can you hear my heart drumming?

11:19 p.m., the promise is sealed

My love for you, forever revealed

Onyedikachi, Chikasirmobi

My life, my legacy
