Lyrics Glory - YONAS, John Splithoff

Glory

Five letters
Yeah
Bringin' content back to popular music
All glory
Let’s go
The Hall of Fame of rap I dreamed to see in my induction
Before I ever wrote a verse, success was my assumption
As a kid I had visions, I was supplied a substance ('Ance)
All I needed was flashin' lights and some fly production
Fast forward years later, I’m on some major stages
Style crazy, I’m Nas mixed with some Major Lazer
Independent label but never the type to take a paycut ('Ut)
Million dollar vocals, I guess you could say I got my cake up (Up)
I learned to change the world, it really doesn’t need to take much
Just take that sturdy ground and be the reason they feel the shake-up ('ake up)
It only helps just learn and grow, this life can never break us
Glory to our maker, history can’t erase us
I wanna know how
Is it always gonna be this hard?
Keep my roads open, my journey’s there, it feels so far
And I’ve been waiting on the day
I find so much
Glory in all this pain
Yeah
Been through many trials
I conquer tribulations (Yeah)
And never once did I receive congratulations (Yeah)
But it’s all love 'cause this right here’s a celebration
We turn water to wine, now someone please
Someone please turn my pain to glory
Someone please turn my pain to glory
Someone please turn my pain to glory
It’s to glory (Yo, check it out)
It’s to glory (Uh)
Yo
These the glory days that I’ve been livin' for years
Every great person I’ve met has been driven by fear
Any happy face that I’ve seen has been driven by tears
Look at the blueprint I’m givin' my peers
Are they aware?
Yeah (Yeah)
Look at this legacy that I’m givin' my kids
Look at this thousand dollar steak that I just stick in my fridge
Look how I quietly mind my biz' while I’m buildin' my biz'
I shoot my shot, I hit my shot, I know y’all feelin' my wrist
Swish
Brick by brick, I just keep buildin' this bridge
Between life and the spirit realm or did y’all niggas forget?
('Get?)
How y’all think I got this far?
This here’s been written in script
The glory days, this been a mission for years
Ha, it’s clear
Someone please turn my pain to glory (Yeah)
Someone please turn my pain to glory (Yeah)
Someone please turn my pain to glory (Yeah)
It’s to glory
It’s to glory
Been through many trials
I conquer tribulations
And never once did I receive congratulations
But it’s all love 'cause this right here’s a celebration
We turn water to wine, now someone please
