Glorious

[Intro]

We have a special opportunity this time again

To  be with one of the masters of the music

Everybody  knows this gentleman, he's been around for so many years

And um, one of the most important personalities of the music

May I ask you something? How do you feel about hearing so much

Um,  positive things about what you're doing? So much compliments?

The  genius, the master

You mean now they're doin' it, now

In  terms of volume, because, I didn't

I didn't start off to play music for that reason, you know?

To, uh, you know, like win a contest or something like the best test, now that's that

I just take it, I accept it

I  used to didn't pay it any mind, but now I

Since had five books out on me, all of 'em gon' be wrong

Except the ones you're gonna do

Uh, yo

I swear to God it sound like everything is supposed to

Okay, uh

True indeed

True indeed

A rap legend, yo

Yeah, uh

Let's get it started like this, uh, okay

[Verse]

Glorious

Like when the same one in the coupe was in front the store with us

Or when the same one on the loops who you was applauding when

You was looping record and now you and dude in accordance and

According to the lo and behold

Who would've thought that it's all haikus but all the shooters supporting it?

Or it's like knowing the lawyer going to court with us

Get his work from the son of the judge and he be on tour with us

Or it's knowing that if you down to lift up the floor with us

Then you don't gotta spend on this Henny to come and pour with us

The theme to the chorus, as sweet as how you thought it

Following Jeeps that's followed by D's in a Taurus

Shout to my block and all the fiends who be across it

And the new Goldilocks, bitches screaming over porridge

You couldn't take the Brooklyn outta me if you were offered

Burnt these blocks, shit you can keep it if you want it

If tomorrow should get up away from me before the morning

My tomb'll read, "He did it from the P's to the coffin," right

Untucking what no one could ever fuck with

But knowing that the way it was folded is how it snuck in

Brother Mouzone bowtie, know the way I float mine

You know Sky, know I'm lo-fi meets Sosa

A to Z, I'm faithfully the one that they quote by

Pay to leave, I may indeed pen this in cocoa

Pay to leave, may indeed pen this in cocoa

The way it weaves, you may just need to bring the rope by

Told West that one of us will be multi before we both die

Luxury was intuition close-eyed

Iʼm still Casper the friendly for who need a loan

Most do, bank account pretty as Rashida Jones

Know that I still be seeing layups when I see a throne

But nothing 'bout me is hypebeast so I be alone

Moved out of the Stuy and bought yard space

But still dressed like I'm outside ducking a car chase

Still a black fist in the air quick as a heart rate

Nikes over Yeezys, Kaepernick over Kanye

Say that I'm half Tre Styles, half 8 Mile

Doctors said I couldn't make Miles until I made Miles

Glorious, like Pete on an SP calling this

A '95 dream come true with no doors on it, right?

Yea, Iʼm that side of the wave

Off that side of the page if you act outta your place

Keep it glorious, right?

[Outro]

Yeah

Keep it glorious, right?

Please do

True indeed, yeah

Welcome to the rebirth of the city, baby

Retropolitan

SK, PR

From the 718 to the 914

So you know what we on if you should try and get involved yeah

This a love letter and a wakeup call to the city

All at the same time

We invite y'all

This Retropolitan shit, huh

Yeah
