Glory
[Verse 1] When your spirit is strained and you limited to change A different hook, the way the sentences arranged More demented in your deliverance, more sinister in ya slang Sounds more belligerent when its sang, The truth... is limitless in it's range If you, drop a 'T' and look at it in reverse, I could hurt, look at the grimaces of the pain And its worse when it works, and ya membership is game But you forgettin' the proof, diminishes in the flames Like poof, the media cause images in ya brain Of the score of the war where militants is slain The faces of the guilty where innocence is proclaimed And they filthy, the death airs outta winners The listeners outta lames... Of the ballad of the man, that the son of a minister has became so: [Chorus] Where forth has my Glory gone? (Yeah Yeah, Yeah Yeah) Where forth has my Glory gone? Glory, Glory... Where forth has my Glory gone? (Where forth has my Glory gone?) Where forth has my Glory gone? Glory, Glory... [Verse 2] But you gotta understand our differences' the same What starts in clouded minds, finishes in the rain Of the fools that I use thats instruments in the game Where impression is the queen and ignorance is the king Where revolution is dead... No candles in its memory, No rememberance of its fame Jus a mystery no mention in the history of the chain The enemy, no Hennessey sentiments in its name Jus a unmarked grave that menaces had to fane With the propaganda, an images of the gangs A lost art, no apprentices in the trained And they brainwashed, no interest in this thang And the minds weary all the adrenaline in the drain While the Wrecking Bosses, disassembling thangs Our highness is the cause, its imminence is the blame The pride is still here, the pillages still remain, but: [Chorus] Where forth has my Glory gone? (Where forth has my Glory gone?) Where forth has my Glory gone? Glory, Glory... Where forth has my Glory gone? (Where forth has my Glory gone?) Where forth has my Glory gone? Glory, Glory... [Verse 3] And you gotta respect a position in which you playing Never let your heart reflect the conditions in which you staying Even if it's dark, and the temperature is the same As winters and then ya crane, ya appendages is in chains Have forgiveness from the start, keep militias misrestrained Be smart, never indiscrimate in ya aim Cuz its innocent witnesses oblivious to the thangs To come the ones that hypnotists keep entertained And you cant uh, have some resilience in ya frame Stay resistance and committed to what u saying Cuz, they'll flip it the minute that you refrain Read the book and the lines, and literature in between You gotta be educated when going against the grain Pay attention, they illegitimate in they claims They assisted in the killin' and pillagin' In addition to the addiction, shit is much bigger than jus complain, but: [Chorus till fade]
