Glory

作词 : Destin Route

作曲 : Destin Route

Look, uh

Look, uh

Early in the morning, got sun in my eyes

Giving glory to God, I'm alert and alive

I ain't even sleep, I been workin', I'm tired

But it's not gon' deter my assignment

At the Lord's service like I'm workin' a job

Black man shawty, robbin' people in Cobb

Playin' Crime Mob, he a child of the corn

Take him into court and on the Bible, he sworn

Take him into church, you know your mom and them goin'

To praise a King with a crown that's provided with thorns

Breakin' rules, skippin' school, pullin' fire alarms

Got with a crew, made a truce, an alliance was formed

Got a tool, start shootin', then the violence was born

The world spinnin' as he look into the eye of the storm

Pray for the boy, bow head, then lock arms

And lock your car doors, he could trigger the alarm

Got caught one time and they left him with just a warnin'

Got baptized in cold water, it turned warm

He blacked out, don't act out, he ain't performin'

Our only path now is back to prison reform or

Oh, well, you know the sad route

The key is get into the game and then cash out

Lil' buddy got to swervin' in the lane and then crashed out

It happens when you takin' the fast route

But I be tryna understand the mind of when you livin' in trauma

To find a way, a reminder, put it behind us

Mission was unaccomplished, it was tough, but in the rough we found diamonds

Category, my life a comedy drama

Come with the comments, come with the sticks or the stones

Come with a red dot, I'm wearin' Comme des Garçons

Better come with a headshot, better hit me, drop me, get me gone

'Cause when daylight come, then you gon' wanna go home

Oh (Mhm, let's go)

He's decked us out

Hasn't God decked you out?

Hasn't He made you brand new?

Brought you up out of the muck and the mire?

Turned you around and placed your feet on solid ground?

He's decked you out, can I get a witness? (Uh)

And get this (Look, uh)

Nighttime, I can see the stars and moon

And the light shine down on the wars and wounds

No guts, no glory, no thugs, no goons

Just us, my story, my life, my rules, my fight

My plight when the light hit the jewels on my ice

My mood, in the club off a lot of shots of Clase Azul

Hungover, doin' million-dollar meetings on Zoom

Let the speaker resume

Ayy, yeah, we can hear you now, go ahead, Victoria

Hey, guys, hey, JID, just getting back from a meeting

The numbers are looking great and we're about to get—

Look, uh

Odds against me (Switch), I'm against the odds

Tryna get even, see the evil in my eyes

Vengeance is the Lord's, so I leave it up to God

But if He don't move forward, I'ma get me mines

Had you cleanin' out your closet, I'ma empty mines

And if you tempt me, sinner send 'em six feet down

Take a drive 'til Xzibit come and pimp me ride

I make her switch anything that ain't gon' get me time

You get the gist, just in case I'm in the wrong state of mind

Which I am most the time, but then I toe a thin line

Diamonds and gold shine, twinkle and glisten, so the women

Assemble like Voltron then try and get your attention

But I give it to the most high, millionaire

Multi-talented, multi-taskin' master

Multi-faceted, multi-functionin' stander

.45 caliber, four, five passengers, no life matters

When— Mad at whatever, so meet the pastor

Open the Bible up and read a chapter, I'm tryna free the shackles

My brother back inside a cell, so I just said a prayer

In the Garden of Eden, say he couldn't help but eat the apple

Even after all of this stuff, I'm at the chapel

And it's natural, I know my foundation build castles

Even a statue, no limitation in a time capsule

I'm sendin' glory up to God to give it back to you, casual

Nothing in my wardrobe compares to what he's outfitted me with

Calvin Klein can't touch it, Gucci can't touch it

Louis Vuitton can't touch it, Armani can't touch itI may not look much to you right now, but God sees me through Christ

And when He sees me, I look like a million bucks

Can I get a witness in here, somebody? (Hallelujah)
