Mr. Fritz - The Glory [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

(Verse 1)
Was never one to pardon any contradictions/
Got imperfections like snow flakes, it makes me different/
Even when the stars fade I try to reach em still/
I'm a believer just to keep it real.../


Who would've thought chasing success would bring the roadblocks?/
Was either this or catch arthritis from that stove top/
Flow's hot but lately feeling like a robot/
Work with no emotion
Marijuana's how I'm coping.../
Hard to keep my focus...no monetary gain/
But the moment that I quit, they throwing dirt up on my name/
So I play the game, grinding praying for that chain/
So if you talking bout the greatest best believe you'll say my name/

(Chorus)
And I'll be damned if you ignore me!
It's about time you listened to my story...
The Glory...
The Glory...
Ugh...I'll be rapping till my death
I'm an unknown king steady acting like the best
The Glory...
The Glory...

(Verse 2)
From a kingdom without a king/
Angels without the wings/
Devils without the horns/
Fair to say you've been warned/
Seems like every single day is a war...for that dollar/
Cause everyone lived illegal and here I was living proper/
I was a youngin' with drive...but I had no direction/
But given how we was raised, much wasn't expected/
Friends sold trey 5s, I would salt shake fries/
Had to save for them new AIs...hard times/
Got my first pair while everyone was rocking their third/
I thought this 9-5 shit for the birds/
They like "Gimme the word, I'll put you on" but I had many concerns/
Had to shine, so you know I had plenty to learn/
But I never got the chance to make the devil dance/
Police knocked em off before I touched that tartar sauce/
That hesitation was a blessing in disguise/
It's rock-bottom, so my only option is rise...right?/

(Chorus)

(Irv Gotti)
Living the American Dream with a vengeance, I’m gonna get it, I don’t give a fuck, I’m gonna get it. I'm...

And you gotta understand the reason, right? Why’s that guy think like that? Right? How do you arrive at that point? You also gotta look at that. You have to look at that. You gotta look at the environments and the places we live in and how things are set up and how things are structured and how we’re always the last on the totem pole. Even from our schooling to our roads to everything that...all the obstacles that are placed in front of us
