Glow
V. Brown Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I put you on the map
You talked a lot of crap
But i'm all smiles lately
Got hugged by an old lady
Smooth in a Cadillac
Tell me where the haters at
They don't think I go with the flow
And they just move on with the show like

I'm so self subsequent
I'm so self subsequent
I'm so self subsequent
Look at me move baby
I'm so self subsequent
I'm so self subsequent
If you don't think I glow
You've lost your groove
Baby
Baby
I put you on the map
You talked a lot of crap
You tried to break the rules but
Tried to act super cool like
Smooth in the Cadillac
Tell me where the haters at
They don't think I go with the flow
And they just move on with the show like
I'm so self subsequent
I'm so self subsequent
I'm so self subsequent
Look at me move baby
I'm so self subsequent
A
I'm so self subsequent
If you don't think I glow
You've lost your groove
Don't think I glow
Don't think I glow
Don't think I glow
Don't think I glow
Don't think I glow
Don't think I glow
Don't think I glow
And it's time I let you know to

I put you on the map
I helped bring attention and success to you

You talked a lot of crap
You spoke negatively and disrespectfully

But I'm all smiles lately
Despite it all, I am happy and positive

Got hugged by an old lady
I received affection and support from someone older

Smooth in a Cadillac
I am cool and stylish, like driving a luxury car

Tell me where the haters at
Show me where the people who dislike me are

They don't think I go with the flow
They don't believe I conform or adapt easily

And they just move on with the show like
They continue with their own agenda without considering me

I'm so self subsequent
I am confident and self-assured

Look at me move baby
Observe how I progress and succeed

If you don't think I glow
If you don't believe I radiate positivity and confidence
