Chords in this song
Strum
D-DU-UDU
Starting with hanging posters on my bedroom walls
To battle rappin for status up in the school halls
Just call me double sushi, thought I was to raw
And hip hop was my home I had my shoes off
63 in high school, well skip a hoop dream
If I dont blow up then maybe, Ill try the school thing
I went to college to do my family a favor
But I couldnt pick a major cause I wanted to be major
I tried sellin work, but it didnt work
So I worked, shopping center clerk, finna go berzerk
Lunch Break , see my writing 16s over Micky Ds
Skippin class, makin beats over 60 keys
And I love that, that even though Im just chasing
Selfish Ambition couldnt tell your boy nothing
Watch out all you rappers cause they finna let Crae in
But I was sleepin on the Son like Days Inn
And you can have the money
And you can have the fame
But me I want the Glory
Im livin for the Name
See life is just a picture
I see outside the frame
Im livin for a kingdom that I aint never seen
And Im Im chase that
Im Im chase that
Found the key to life and best believe that Im Im play that (Glory)
Im Im chase that
Im Im chase that (glory)
Im Im chase that
Im Im chase that
I remember chasin the green feelin blue
Only check Im countin is the mic check, one two
All I wanted was the money and the fame and the new
Somebody on my arm when I walk inside the room
All I wanted was doom
The same kind Alexander the Great felt, when the Earth ran out of room
He conquered all he could, but yet hes feelin consumed
By this never ending quest for glory he couldnt fuel
Like a typical fool, I would go hard
Shootin for the moon
But there only one Son , no Co-star
Chasin glory I shouldnt own
Instead of livin to make His name known
Im runnin after his throne
I thought bein on TV, where everybody could see me
Was nothing short of the easiest way I could see to please me
Ill never be who I used to desperately want to be
Im too worried but the Lord getting credit instead of me
I use to wanna do it big
When youre only focused on yourself thats small
And they, they use to tell me as a kid
That I could do anything that I want except fall
And now that I recall
I was chasing my goals
And every time I caught them they multiplied into mo
I never even thought about whether the Lord approved
Call it selfish ambition
I call it, I'm makin moves
But history repeats itself
Evils what it is
Cause Lucifer was cast away for doing what I did
Created by the God who spoke the Earth into existence
Instead of chasing the Fathers glory he was chasin his
He lies to us all
Told Adam he could ball
Why you followin God when could go get it all?
Ill tell you whats better, or better yet worse
Chasin your own glory by doin the Lords work
So holla if it hurts
But we were made for greater
Our greatest satisfaction is making His Name famous
So if were never named among the greatest, (or) they dont critically acclaim us
Aint nothing to be ashamed of
We gave it up for the Savior
