Glory
GROUNDBREAKING Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everyone I speak to thinks that I'm insane
I live in a world I think that I can save
But they see me as a fucking enemy
Have I tried for nothing?
Can I fight for something?
I'm a complex person
They see me as a simple problem
I don't know what you even want from me
Try to make me trip, but you're not catching me
I never did it for the fame, I never did it for the greed
I guess I'm just obsessed with fantasy, or maybe
I am obsessed, obsessed with all the glory
I am obsessed, obsessed with all the glory
I am obsessed, obsessed with all the glory
I am obsessed, obsessed with all the glory
I am the last of my kind, at least that's how I feel
Greed will kill us all and be our fall, there is no real
Perception, depth, and a choice, it doesn't mean a thing
Everyone chooses wrong, I am the last of me
I am the only one, the last of me
I am the only one, the last of me
I am the only one, the last of me
I am the only one, the last of me
I am the only one, the last of me
I am the only one, the last of me
Is there any good in the world?
Come out and find me
'Cause I am the only one, the last of me
I don't know what you even want from me
Try to make me trip, but you're not catching me
I never did it for the fame, I never did it for the greed
I guess I'm just obsessed with fantasy

The artist is frustrated that he is not given the recognition he deserves and is often misunderstood by people. The lyrics "I live in a world I think that I can save, But they see me as a fucking enemy" show the artist's determination to change the world for the better, but at the same time, his frustration with people who misjudge him.
The artist questions his efforts to make a difference and wonders if it's all for nothing. "Have I tried for nothing, Can I fight for something?" shows his inner turmoil. The phrase "I'm a complex person, They see me as a simple problem" reflects the artist's feelings of not being appreciated for who he is. The artist struggles to find a balance between his desire to make a difference and his obsession with fame and glory, portrayed in the phrases "I never did it for the fame, I never did it for the greed, I guess I'm just obsessed with fantasy, or maybe I am obsessed, obsessed with all the glory." The song ends with the artist feeling isolated and lonely, asking, "Is there any good in the world? Come out and find me, 'Cause I am the only one, the last of me."

TIME HAS SCARRED MY FACE
AND MARKED MY BRAIN
EVERYONE I SPEAK TO THINKS THAT I'M INSANE
I LIVE IN A WORLD
I THINK THAT I CAN SAVE
BUT THEY SEE ME AS A F**** ENEMY
HAVE I TRIED FOR NOTHING
CAN I FIGHT FOR SOMETHING
I'M A COMPLEX PERSON
THEY SEE ME AS A SIMPLE PROBLEM
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU EVEN WANT FROM ME
TRY TO MAKE ME TRIP BUT YOU'RE NOT CATCHING ME
I NEVER DID IT FOR THE FAME
I NEVER DID IT FOR THE GREED
I GUESS I'M JUST OBSESSED WITH FANTASY
OR MAYBE
I AM OBSESSED
OBSESSED WITH ALL THE GLORY
I AM THE LAST OF MY KIND
AT LEAST THAT'S HOW I FEEL
GREED WILL KILL US ALL AND BE OUR FALL
THERE IS NO REAL
PERCEPTION DEPTH AND A CHOICE
IT DOESN'T MEAN A THING
EVERYONE CHOOSES WRONG
I AM THE LAST OF ME
I AM THE ONLY ONE
THE LAST OF ME
IS THERE ANY GOOD IN THE WORLD
COME OUT AND FIND ME
I AM THE ONLY ONE
THE LAST OF ME
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU EVEN WANT FROM ME
TRY TO MAKE ME TRIP BUT YOU'RE NOT CATCHING ME
I NEVER DID IT FOR THE FAME
I NEVER DID IT FOR THE GREED
I GUESS I'M JUST OBSESSED WITH FANTASY

I've been subscribed to this channel for a long time and I'm glad to see you grow. I'm not necessarily the most active subscriber but I feel like I have listened to enough of your music to give some good criticism. I want everyone to know I'm not trying to hate, but rather I'm trying to be constructive. Let's begin.
To start of, the general composition of your songs is almost always incredible. It's awesomely done and everything always fits nicely together. The name of the channel really describes the music best in my opinion.
Next, I'm going to talk about your voice. I really recommend getting a professional voice coach, or singing lessons or ANYTHING to train your voice. I personally never saw the singing as the highlight of the music. The melodies are rather simple and the emphasis is put on everything else - this is not a problem and utilises your strengths to their max. The problem is that your voice sounds weak in comparisson to all the other great things going on. It doesn't... fit with the rest. But this can definitely fixed. If you don't have a vocal trainer, please consider getting one. If you do, keep training your voice.
To end on a positive note, your beats are always dope. Every song is a bopper and makes me want to bang my head to it. The beat drops are epic and are awesome to listen to. Everything is also nicely mixed and it produces a nice end product. That's about it from me!
This was written not only for this song, but pretty much everything I heard of you so far. I hope this comment will reach you and I didn't offend you in any way.
