Started with hanging posters on my bedroom walls To battle rapping 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, but 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 selling work, but it didn’t work So I worked, shopping center clerk, finna go berserk Lunch break, see me writing 16’s over Mickey D’s Skipping class, making 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 ‘cause they finna let ‘Crae in But I was sleeping 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 living for the Name See life is just a picture, I see outside the frame I’m living 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 chasing the green, feeling blue Only check I’m counting 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 feeling consumed By this never-ending quest for glory he couldn’t fuel Like a typical fool I would go hard Shooting for the moon but there’s only one sun [Son], no co-star Chasing glory I shouldn’t own Instead of living to make his name known I’m running after his throne I thought being 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 getting 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 living for the Name See life is just a picture, I see outside the frame I’m living 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 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 chasing 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 making 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 chasing his He lies to us all, told Adam he could ball “Why you followin’ God when you could go get it all?”
