Lyrics:
It all started with a win, in 1910
Who would have thought how many times we could do it again
They questioned our success, our fight til the end
but '24 was 26-0, that only begins
a Legacy. The first of the mix
You can say its 5 but we all know its 6
1957. Wilt playin tricks
Triple-overtime had us crowned champions
Jump to '82, a kid named Mike
Must have been his shoes that made him jump so high
We all knew his skills, best player in mind
but who would have thought he'd be the best of all time?
And I still watch clips of the '82 ship
Mike gets the ball, 18 ticks
Heart goes thump-thump cuz he knows he can't miss
Shoots for the win....swish.

(Announcer: 1982 National Championship)

Now we jump to '93, I was three years old
The Legacy was only growing, or so I was told
The Tar Heels had won 3, but 3 was getting old
and the public only bought what the Fab Five sold
I was too young for tv, but I could feel the air,
the buzz, this was the battle of the year
They brought Weber, and Howard, both household names
but Dean Smith brought that determination to the game
It was David vs. Goliath, they fought with the rock
And they torched those nets back and forth, jump shots
20 ticks left, up 2, need a stop
We force them to call a timeout...HAH

(Announcer: 1993 National Championship)

We might have had a few ups and downs
12 years gone by til we touched the crown
but you could tell, the heart never left the crowd
and every team just built further off the ground
So we loved '05 when we hear the news,
Raymond Feltons coming back, and he's bringing the crew,
team stacked, but I think every Tar Heel knew
Illinois would bring the fight, they were not ready to lose.
So they laced up, they faced up, they battled it out
We fought hard but they fought back, no matter amount
Not til the clock struck did we finally shout,
that N-C-U.

(Announcer: 2005 National Championship)

4 years passed by, in the blink of an eye
'09 brought back a team that was thinkin that my
first year at Carolina should be hung in the sky
of the Dean Dome roof, already covered in pride
So Tyler brought the heart, Lawson the speed
Wayne made it rain, make it Wayne the shirts read
There was Deon, and Ed, servin blocks when need be
Danny Green always knew how to get the crowd on their feet
Yes, the '09 team stood up in the clouds
They marched through march, they were marchin loud
That pump, that heartbeat battle sound
Beat Michigan State in the finals by 17...wow.

(Announcer: 2009 National Championship)

Now we have that talent, we got that rhythm,
we even have a Henson Air Defense System
Reggie sinkin 3s, got dunks to go with them
If Z is out in front, we know Kendall will hit him
Unleash the beast, his name: Black Falcon
Soarin through the lane, the D can not Doubt him
Every other teammate can ball, now that's balance
But we all know that winning is more than just talent
That heart, that fight
That gotta give it all every day every night
That sweat, that blood, that drive, those tears,
That never-even-think-about-a-loss-all-year
That love for the game, given all is the same
We will give up everything, even sacrifice our name...
Just for the chance to be great,
just for the chance to have fate say this team will make
History...its what we make of it
So we fight... to be the best we can be
We fight... to leave legacies.
