lyrics

I feel, so-/Glorious, right now-/
-I hope, you're recording this, right now-/
-I'm looking at the audience like Cyrus in the warriors/
I feel like I was born for this, right now, so turn the lights, down-/
Coz I'm a night, owl, I take the shadow roads/
The depth is my inception and I'm feeling like Dicaprio-/
-The fight for Zion man I'm feeling like I am Neo-/
There's agents on my trail I'm tryina infiltrate the access codes-/
--This beat is on some movie shit-/
I see the future through the lens that Stanley Kubrick did-/
-Coz I was living with my eyes, wide, shut until I/
Opened up the third, word, witness the exuberance-/
-From-the-peak, to-the-pass, from-the-seas, to-the-stars-/
-Through-the-trees, through-the-grass, through-the-screen, through-the-glass-/
In-the-belly-of-the-beast, through-the-bars, you-can-feel-it-like-the-beat, of-your heart/
We-can-go, anywhere, Venus to Mars, freedom at last-//

-This, my story, story, story, story, story/
I ain't do it for the fame, man I did it for the glory, glory, glory, the glory, the glory-/
That's my story, story, story, story, story/
And we built it from the frame, now we building up the stories, stories, stories, look out and feel the glory, the glory, the glory, the glory, look out and feel it-//

Don't this feel like something awesome coming-/
-Feeling like the battle stomping as the orcs are coming-/
-The final lap but I ain't feelin' no exhaustion coming/
Take 'em out they done you need stick 'em with a fork or somethin'-/
-These keys are some amazing shit-/
-This on some Con Air bout to crash the plane in Vegas shit-/
-This on some neon lights, shining lead, flying ducking/
Blue and red, sirens shredding tyres down the nature strip-/
-I’m feeling blessed today, to be alive and in the/
Moment only hope to gain a little more from yesterday-/
I’ve found my place and layed foundations watch me set the stage/
I’m proud to have the family now we repping it on centre stage-/
-This bout to be the greatest thing I ever did-/
-This for my people for my name and for my heritage-/
So when they bury him his memory they’ll cherish it/
They won’t say he was perfect, but he earned it, and he went to get the glory-//
