📜 Lyrics:
Verse 1
From the moment we arrive, we start layin’ down the trail
Little choices stackin’ up like stones upon the scale
It ain’t just about the money or the name we try to find
It’s about the love, the truth, the grace — what we leave behind

Verse 2
It’s in the smile of our children, in the strength of weathered hands
In the prayers that mama whispered, in a simple wedding band
It’s in every act of kindness, every burden we help lift
The quiet ways we give our time — that’s the greatest gift

Chorus
What we leave behind is more than dirt and stone
It’s the seeds we sow, the hearts we grow, the faith we pass along
You don’t need a statue, you don’t need a sign
To live a life that echoes through a thousand hearts and minds
What we leave behind... that’s the legacy that shines

Bridge
Someday they’ll stand where we once stood
And wonder if we lived for good
Let ‘em find the proof in how we prayed,
And how we loved along the way

Final Chorus
What we leave behind is more than dirt and stone
It’s the seeds we sow, the hearts we grow, the faith we pass along
You don’t need a statue, you don’t need a sign
To live a life that echoes through a thousand hearts and minds
What we leave behind...
Yeah, that’s the legacy that shines
