Glory
roy and the distant dreamers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woke up at night like 4 times

Why do I need to wait for night to shine my light

I ask myself are you alright?

Waking up don’t look so hard to you why don’t you come a second
Look at life from outa your side

Nah?

I mean if being sleep deprived is what you wish for

I’m in heaven

A wise man once told

Sleeping is for when 7/11 closed

Tryna live outa the 9-5

I don’t need anyone messing with my money

I’ve been tryna keep my wishes In a line

Been too close to dying one too many times

But they say that life and death are relatively close

You’re not a rich until you find your inner broke

Reality and dreams pretty close too

Channeling in languages might set a tone

I can’t wait for glory

I came here to win

I can’t wait to show them

The animal within

How much power do I need to get myself in gear

What do I need to do to let go of the near and dear

Fear of facing what is right here In my face ain’t easy

But one day I’ll be cutting through the bullshit Like a spear

It’s my mental sphere I’m sliding through the edge

I’m gonna do this till I stop

And when I stop is when i’m dropping dead

I see it standing when I’m in my bed

I see It like a taurus fifty shades of red

המלים שלי הן נשק

מביא לי החשק

מנשק תמזוזה בסטודיו

גם כשיש לי חדק

לוחץ לי על ההדק

כבר חם על הדבשה

נמס לי כבר המוח

מכל צל של הכחשה

המוזיקה נכנסת לי בדם כמו הכשה

כל נפילה היא אסימון בתוך המכונה

המחוגה תזוז רק כשנפר את השתיקה הידיעה

שהמוב הנוכחי מכין ת’מוב הבא

חולץ תנעליים מתחבר ליצירה

יודע שאני עכשיו אני שמור מכל צרה

פותח את העין השלישית אני מחובר

בוטח שכל זרע שנזרע התחיל במחשבה

כל הגה שיוצא לי מהפה הוא מסיבה מוצב

עליו כמו צב ארנב אני במרטון הספרינטרים

נפלו מזמן אז אני מעדיף להיות הצב





לא חלק ממסורת אז כדאי שלא תביאו רב

These words are my weapon and bring me pleasure. They're like a motor humming in the studio, even when things are tough. Pressure is building, and everything is heating up.

The current mood is preparing for what's next. Shoes come off, and creation begins. I know I'm safe from harm. I open my third eye and feel connected. Every idea that comes out of my mouth is for a reason. I'm like a rabbit in a sprinter race, always pushing forward. I've long fallen back from tradition, so don't expect me to fall in line.
