Started with hangin’ posters on my bedroom walls | |
To battle rappin’ for status up in the school halls | |
Just call me double sushi, thought I was too raw | |
And hip-hop was my home, I had my shoes off | |
6’3 in high school, well skip a hoop dream | |
If I don’t blow up then maybe I’ll try this school thing | |
I went to college to do my family a favor | |
But I couldn’t pick a major ‘cause I wanted to be MAJOR | |
I tried sellin’ work, but it didn’t work | |
So I worked, shopping center clerk, finna go berserk | |
Lunch break, see me writin’ 16’s over Mickey D’s | |
Skippin’ class, makin’ beats, over 60 keys | |
And I love that even though I’m just chasin’ | |
Selfish ambition couldn’t tell your boy naythin’ | |
Watch out all you rappers cuz they finna let ‘Crae in | |
But I was sleepin’ on the Son, like a Days Inn | |
[Hook] | |
And you can have the money, and you can have the fame | |
For me I want the glory, I’m livin’ for the Name | |
See life is just a picture, I see outside the frame | |
I’m livin’ for a Kingdom that I ain’t never seen | |
And I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that | |
Found the key to life and best believe that I’ma play that | |
Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that | |
Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that | |
[Verse 2] | |
I remember chasin’ the green, feelin’ blue | |
Only check I’m countin’ is the mic check, 1-2 | |
All I wanted was the money and the fame and a new | |
Somebody on my arm when I walk inside the room | |
All I wanted was doom | |
The same kind Alexander the Great felt when the earth ran out of room | |
He conquered all he could but yet he’s feelin’ consumed | |
By this never-ending quest for glory he couldn’t fuel | |
Like a typical fool I would go hard | |
Shootin’ for the moon but there’s only one sun [Son], no co-star | |
Chasin’ glory I shouldn’t own | |
Instead of living to make his name known I’m runnin’ after his throne | |
I thought bein’ on TV where everybody could see me | |
Was nothing short of the easiest way I could see to please me | |
I’ll never be who I used to desperately wanted to be | |
I’m too worried ‘bout the Lord gettin’ credit instead of me | |
[Hook] | |
And you can have the money, and you can have the fame | |
For me I want the glory, I’m livin’ for the Name | |
See life is just a picture, I see outside the frame | |
I’m livin’ for a Kingdom that I ain’t never seen | |
And I’ma chase that, glory I’ma chase that | |
Found the key to life and best believe that I’ma play that | |
Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that | |
Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that | |
[Verse 3] | |
I used to wanna do it big | |
When you’re only focused on yourself that’s small | |
And they, they used to tell me as a kid | |
That I could do anything that I want, except fall | |
And now that I recall, I was chasin’ my goals | |
And every time I caught ‘em they multiplied into mo’ | |
I never even thought about whether the Lord approved | |
Call it selfish ambition, I call it, “I’m makin’ moves” | |
But history repeats itself, evil’s what it is | |
‘Cause Lucifer was cast away for doing what I did | |
Created by the God who spoke the earth into existence | |
Instead of chasing the Father’s glory, he was chasin’ his | |
He lies to us all, told Adam he could ball | |
“Why you followin’ God when you could go get it all?” | |
I’ll tell you what’s better, or better yet worse | |
Chasin’ your own glory by doin’ the Lord’s work | |
So holla if it hurts, but we were made for greater | |
Our greatest satisfaction is making His name famous | |
So if we’re never named among the greatest, they don’t critically acclaim us | |
Ain’t nothin’ to be ashamed of, we gave it up for the Savior | |
[Hook] | |
I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that | |
And the Lord’s goodness, you should you should taste that | |
And you ain’t livin’ till you livin’ for his name, yeah | |
Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that |
