Listen, tried to put me in a box, the urban dude. I'm Mr. Festivals, Coachella, They never really understood I was trying to do, And had me feeling Miles Davis kinda I flipped the switch and put the star in my show, Went overseas and had 'em cop whipping slow They're for me I was bad with a black band Eating everybody in the game, 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 had a number one record with his own tour. Look at his show, look how we touch 'em keys, Look how 'em girls scream 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 such determination? Despite it all, I'm a theme for the adulation. Everything I wrote I did it form the heart Never had a top ten but you still my art. I'm in the club and still send me free bottles, push that G-55 with a super model. It's my reality, this no show, brother Go check my girl on the Vogue cover And catch me whipping the city in that silver Jeep Kids screaming "Oh, Ryan Leslie," Yeah, they know it's me I'm not ashamed at all, in fact I my story, No matter what it takes oh I'ma 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 you're hating when you should be believing 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 hotel 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)
