Listen, tried to put me in a box, the urban dude. I'm Mr. Festivals, Coachella, They never really understood what I was to do, And had me Miles Davis kinda blue I flipped the switch and put the rock in my show, Went and had 'em cop cars whipping slow They're looking for me I was bad with a band Eating in the game, Pacman The only is not a game, I've got these kids looking at me, "What a shame! He's so underrated, he should sold more Should've had a number one with his own tour. Look at his live show, how we touch 'em keys, how 'em girls scream when he fall to his knees! Look how he pour his heart out he tell his story." i i had to spill my guts so i could get my glory!
Listen, Have you ever even seen determination? Despite it all, I'm a theme for the adulation. I ever wrote I did it form the heart Never had a top ten but you still my art. I'm in the club and they still me free bottles, push that G-55 with a super model. It's my reality, ain't no show, brother Go check my girl on the February cover And catch me whipping the city in that silver Jeep Kids "Oh, that's Ryan Leslie," Yeah, they know it's me I'm not ashamed at all, in I love my story, No matter what it oh I'ma keep my glory!
Sh-t! The glory, it to me! oh, oh! I get it The glory, it to me!
You me why I'm rapping, I give you the reason, The same reason you're hating when you should be It's in your heart to hate, in my heart to win, So yeah, I'm now, let the hating begin! I my own records, write my own checks, Wonder which and which city I'm calling home next! One thing i know for sure, one that's mandatory, I owe it all to God, I him all the glory!
Sh-t! The glory, it to me! oh, oh! (x3) get my glory, it to me! (x2)
