“Legend” is the first time that Tyler Joseph has spoken out about his grandfather, Robert Joseph, since he passed away on March 17th, 2018. Robert was featured on the right side of the album cover for the band’s 2013 release, Vessel.

[Chorus]
You were one of those classic ones
Traveling around this sun
You were one of those classic ones
I wish she knew you

I look forward to having a lunch with you again
