Glory
Hodgy Lyrics

If I could ask for anything it would be apprehension
I wish to comprehend everything that I encounter.

Malice is pretentious, no further questioning
Ill-will is insincere and should not be entertained.

Balanced with a shin splint, down to Earth how it's sitting
I am grounded even as I experience physical discomfort.

My flows are pimping, this shit rot, ya'll gone have to exhibit
My raps are excellent, but they are not everlasting and will require preservation for the future.

Dissecting my life apart like a frog with no ribbit
People are analyzing my life like a dissected frog that can no longer express itself.

I've done it this time, I did it, they snitching to the witness
I've accomplished something great, but others are leaking information about it.

I've crumbled it down to stretch and move the quickness
I've consolidated my success and now need to move swiftly.

Hunger is the sickness, zombies coming with a vengeance
The desire for success can lead to a dangerous obsession.

I go figure on the hill like Tom with his inventions
I am creative and innovative in the same way that Thomas Edison was.

Love for my music, my people, remind me my intentions
I am driven by my love for music and my community, which helps me stay focused on my goals.

It's a battle to get it right when your thoughts are henchmans
It's difficult to make the right choices when there are many conflicting opinions around you.

True to survive in the night, the fight or flight
In order to survive in tough situations, you must choose between running away or fighting back.

Firefight, the fire, the fireflies shining bright at night
During a gunfight, the flashing lights of gunfire can resemble the glowing of fireflies.

The brightest light my future, I'ma till it's outta sight
My future is very bright, and I will work tirelessly to achieve my goals.

You're free to them right, can't climb my height
You may have freedom, but you can never achieve my level of success.

I say it louder, twice, I'm 'bout that life until I'm out of life to live
I am confident in my abilities and will continue to pursue success until my dying breath.

Punchlines haven't received a flow
My rap style is unique and unmatched.

Before I'm out the game make sure nobody did it how I did
I want to leave behind a legacy and ensure that nobody can copy my style.

I should be first on your browser list
My music is so amazing that it should be the first thing you search for.

Check my music out, it's sick, I might buy me a house with this
My music is excellent, and I am making substantial amounts of money from it.

I'm black and I'm young and I'm fucking strapped with a gun
I am a young black man who carries a gun for my own protection.

They can't talk crap 'cause they dumb
People cannot criticize me because they lack intelligence.

Don't know what the fuck's happening
People are ignorant and unaware of the reality of the situation.

They say, Jesus' piece like I'm back to back with a nun
People judge me for owning a gold necklace with a religious symbol on it.

He resurrected his life, for his fucking sake just to have you some fun
Jesus sacrificed his life so that people could have joy and fun in their lives.

There comes a time in a man's life
At some point in a man's life, he must confront his own morality.

Doing crime is just a man's vice
Men are often drawn to criminal activity.

Vaporise, my brain is paying pan fried
I feel as though my mind is being fried as I let my creativity flow.

I sublime until I am high
My creativity and talent make me feel as though I am on a natural high.

You can't tell a man what he can't try
Regardless of what others say, a man must be encouraged to push himself.

Watch the faith of a mustard seed expand in size
Even the smallest amount of faith can grow exponentially.

I'm the shit, but at least he can't fly
I am very confident in my rapping ability, but at least I can't actually fly.

Jagged edges like a ham pie
My life is full of rough edges and imperfections like a poorly made ham pie.

I'm getting cheese now where's the damn Rye
I am finally making a lot of money, and now I just need to figure out how to use it wisely.

She need my wishes, my command right? Right?
A woman wants me to make her wishes come true, and I am determined to fulfill them.

I tell my man I can't wait for you to come home
I miss my friend and can't wait for them to return from wherever they are.

Drumline, one band, one sound, trumpets and trombones
A united group of musicians performing together creates a powerful, cohesive sound.

I feel the fucking growth like processed hormones
I am experiencing rapid growth and development, like the way processed hormones artificially stimulate growth.

My intuition is the unknown
My instincts guide me towards the unknown and help me navigate uncertainty.

I let it ripen till you smell it like it's cologne
I nurture and cultivate my talent until it is so strong that others can sense it.

Serving niggas with appetisers, the rap arrival
I am introducing myself and my music to others like a server would offer appetizers.

I put the beat to sleep, call me the trackquilliser
My raps are so good that they practically put the music to sleep.

Dandelion in the middle of the desert, analyse it
Even in the harshest of environments, beauty can still be found.

If she ask me which way to go, I bet I can't advise her
I am not the best at giving advice, even if someone asks me for it.

Listen to one of my tracks, label me the antagoniser
My music may be considered controversial, but that's because I speak my truth.

Niggas be like Hodgy need to grab the bible
Some people think that I need to turn to religion in order to find fulfillment.

So I grabbed the bible, study like I fathom idols
I am exploring religion in order to gain a deeper understanding of it.

You after fame nigga, I'm after the title
Others are focused on fame, but I am motivated by achieving greatness and being known for my talent.

The best
I am the best rapper out there.
