Leslie, Ryan - Glory Lyrics






Listen, they tried to put me in a box, the urban dude.
I'm Mr. Festivals, Coachella, Bonaru
They never really understood what I was trying to do,
And had me feeling Miles Davis kinda blue
I flipped the switch and put the rock star in my show,
Went overseas and had 'em cop cars whipping slow
They're looking funny I was bad with a black band
Eating everybody in the game, Pacman
The only issue is not a game,
I've got these kids looking at me, saying "What a shame!
He's so underrated, he should have sold more
Should've had a number one record with his own tour.
Look at his live show, look how we touch 'em keys,
Look how 'em girls scream when he fall to his knees!
Look how he pour his heart out when he tell his story."
I guess I had to spill my guts so I could get my glory!

Listen,
Have you ever seen such determination?
Despite it all, I'm still a theme for the adulation.
Everything I ever wrote I did it form the heart
Never had a top ten but you still respect my art.
I'm in the club and they still send me free bottles,
Still push that G-55 with a super model.
It's my reality, this ain't no show, brother
Go check my girl on the February Vogue cover
And catch me whipping through the city in that silver Jeep
Kids screaming "Oh, that's Ryan Leslie, yeah, they know it's me"

I'm not ashamed at all, in fact I love my story,
No matter what it takes oh I'ma keep my glory!

Shit!
The glory, give it to me!
oh, oh!
I get it
The glory, give it to me!
Yeah

You asked me why I'm rapping,
Well I give you the reason,
The same reason you're hating when you should be believing
It's in your heart to hate, it's in my heart to win,
So yeah, I'm rapping now, let the hating begin!
I write my own records, write my own checks,
Wonder which will? which city I'm calling home next!
One thing I know for sure, one thing that's mandatory,
I owe it all to God, I give him all the glory!

Shit!
The glory, give it to me!
oh, oh! [x3]
I'mma get my glory,
give it to me! [x2]

    Oh , để tao kể cho chúng mày nghe về cuộc sống tha hương
    Là 1 cuộc sống mà có nhiều người vẫn đag còn lầm tưởng
    Là cuộc sống mànhiều người nghĩ là se sung sướng, nhìn ảnh tao up đi chơi tụi mày nghĩ sướng lắm
    Đơn giản là do lúc đi làm đéo rảnh tay để chụp ảnh cho bọn mày ngắm
    Cuộc sống bên tây sướng lắm, mới sang chưa biết gì nên vẩn còn đag say đắm , gà ăn ngày 3 bữa nghĩ mình sướng lắm (haha)
    Đôi khi đi làm về còn chưa kịp tắm
    Tao hiểu những người đag cùng tao tha hương, luôn muốn tìm cho mình 1 chổ đứng vững chãi
    Lamf tất cả mọi thứ chỉ để muốn tốt cho lương lai
    Nhưng ít ai biết là họ củng đag vác cục nợ trên vai
    Bọn mày làm ngày 8 tiếng còn tao ngày 12 tiếng
    Bọn mày làm để kiếm tiền còn tao làm để suy nghĩ ngày mai sẽ ra sao, tao làm để suy nghĩ ngày mai ra sao
    Oh , tao sang tây từ năm 16t còn chưa học hết cấp 3,
    Nhưng tao đã thử K , còn cần sa thì khỏi hỏi
    Cuộc sống ở đây làm tao suy nghĩ rất nhiều nên chỉ có cái gì xua tan được nó thì mày cứ thử đi thì mới hiểu câu trên
    Bên này thì củng không khác gì việt nam
    Người kiểu này người kiểu nọ
    Kẻ có tiền thì có bè còn kẻ không tiền có kè thì củng đéo có ai đi
    Lắm lúc củng thấy mình thật cô đơn
    Nhưng mà nhờ sự mất mát , sự đau khổ sự thất vọng nên con người tao mới trưởng thành hơn
    Nhiều hay ít củng khóc rồi, ngã rất nhiều cũng tự đứng rồi , buồn rất nhiều củng qua rồi , viết rất nhiều nhưng củng xoá rồi , làm họ đau củng nhiều rồi nên điều tao cần lúc này là được xoá tội
    Nên bọn mày cứ nghĩ đi ,, cứ suy nghĩ thật kĩ đi
    Cái gì đến sẽ đến đi sẽ đi

    S.... P....

    6 years later now

    S.... P....

    Just over 2M in 2019 but I kinda figured the reason for this. I've been watching RLes none stop for about 2 months and Youtube only showed me this twice. On the otherhand, I know Joan of Arc, Ups and Downs,Beautiful Lie, Wonderful Ones, Realize etc by heard due to the numerous repeats...Gonna repeat this one though, need to get the hang of it. Good so far. Drums banging, reminds me of the guitar on Breathe (Mr Hudson?) and the one on Joan of Arc--play on....

    S.... P....

    Thats what im saying!!!!! and not its 5 years later!!!

  50. m.... ....

    My Brother you just changed my life forever. I came up in a group call Ward Boyz with Slap It Clap It on B.E.T. Uncut. My heart was never in that kind of "safe Music". After listening to you songs for the past 4 hours, i know the dream is real. I'm saying good bye to the trash, and hello to myself, the real me. I'm Black Saudi.

  61. A.... ....

    Almost forgot and not to mention the base guitar in this mayn.

  62. A.... ....

    This song has been composed so well that every time I hear it, it gives me an eargasm. The drums, the electric guitar, the lyrics and of course the choir harmonizing in the chorus. R-Les is the best no doubt!!!

  63. R.... ....

    This guy is a God. Must see in Bratislava on November.
