"Legacy" lyrics - TONY IOMMI

TONY IOMMI
"Legacy"

Born with fire to the dark night
From the mother to the deadlight
Drugged my heartache with dreams that won't break
My wings of steel fly on winds of soul cry, oh, yeah
Yeah, ah

Rode my demons, building my tower
Through the clouds of blinding rain, never lost my power
Entwined in the vision, my roots of desire
Sending echoes from my past, gonna make the future last, yeah

[Chorus:]
This is my legacy, I bring you fire
Can't let my destiny fade or expire
My timeless rhapsody, it never landed
The future waits for me, I'll leave it branded

Never look back, staying on track, passing open windows
Carry this black away from the flak of sorrow
Ploughing ahead, ambition instead of going where the wind blows
Knowing my way, the music will play tomorrow

[Refrain:]
Oh, it's not the fame that I'm after
I just need eternal flame

[Guitar solo]

In the new night, she's waiting for him
He's a runner, but love will take him in
Feeding his mission, feeling that power
At the rooftop of the world, the man of the hour

Memory lane, pleasure and pain, any way the wind blows
Looking ahead, trying instead of hiding
Heroes and games, I'm carving my name far beyond the skyglow
Someone will sing the music I bring tomorrow

[Instrumental Outro]
