the man, the myth, the legend - orestis lyrics

more time back home, more time with my people
more sunsets that remind me we all are equal
i rep the island ‘cause it raised me when nothin’ else did
the light of the house knew my secrets before i ever hid ‘em

first kiss by the block, yeah, i still remember
she laughed when the rain hit, it fеlt like forever
now it’s just mе and the echoes of that summer
every time i smell the scent of her of people , i think i still love her

sometimes i feel bad for the disses i dropped
was angry at the world, but i aimed at the wrong world
i said things i ain’t mean just to prove i was cold
truth is, i was hurt, and that’s all that it showed

now i’m learning how to breathe, how to let things go
how to love the same streets that taught me to grow
it’s still me, still the greek from that coast of blue
even if i make it far, i’m still coming through

more nights i pray, more to the listenin’
im like a false 9 — i don’t need no positionin’
if i don’t speak it now, it might fade in the wind
so i put it in the tracks, that’s where it begins

hey, i still think about that night by the block
you said you’d call, i never bothered
told myself i’d move on, but time don’t heal proper
some memories don’t fade, they just get softer
you were the calm in a storm but i didn’t notice
the laugh that hit different, the one i still quote it
back when i had dreams but no plan to show it
just a kid from the island, prayin’ i’d make a show for it

now i write songs, but none sound the same
without your name somewhere tucked in the game
i guess i grew up, learned how to take blame
but some hearts you break, you can’t reframe

and if you heard the disses, yeah, i said some things
back when glory wore my crown and pain like pinochio i pulled the strings
i was furios, loud, even lost in my own wings
didn’t know the hurt that greek god ego brings

now when i’m back home, i walk by that beach
half of me still hopes that you’re somewhere in reach
same stars above, same water at my feet
same boy, 5 shadows from the light house trying to find peace

if you ever hear this, know i meant what i wrote
every line’s a piece of me that i never spoke
and even if we never meet again, i still have hope
‘cause you’re part of the island — and i’m just her hope

i stopped tryna prove, started tryna heal
realized not every wound needs to have a deal
sometimes you just sit with it, let it be real
that silence taught me more than any appeal
i forgave who i had to, even myself
put the anger to the people, let it drown with the myself
all that pain i held tight, it was bad for my health
now i move with calm — that’s my new kind of wealth

i don’t chase what don’t feel right no more
don’t need the spotlight, i’ve seen that before
the real glow comes from peace, not applause or a score
and my island taught me that — through every closed door

now when i touch that sand, i thank the ground
every grain knows my name, that’s how deep i’m bound
even when i’m gone, i’ll still be around
in the wind, in the sea, in the hometown sound

so if they ask me what i rep, i don’t gotta explain
the man, the myth, the legend, even my pain
it’s the smile through the struggle, the sun after rain
it’s the island in my body — that’ll always still remain
