Racing faster Escape disaster Partners in crime will leave their mark We make our own way No thoughts of yesterday Black hearts of chrome and battle scars Whoa The legacy Born from a dream On leather wings Rose from the streets With the hands on destiny We came from nothing But promise one thing We'll change the world with these guitars So listen closely And don't stop working No one can tell you who you are (Tell you who you are) The legacy Born from a dream On leather wings Rose from the streets With the hands on destiny The legacy Born from a dream On leather wings Rose from the streets With the hands on destiny Go! Look! (look) Look! Never look back! Look! (look) Look! Never look back! Look! Look! Look! Never look back! The legacy Born from a dream On leather wings Rose from the streets With the hands on destiny The legacy Born from a dream On leather wings Rose from the streets With the hands on destiny
