Listen, they tried to put me in a box, the dude. I'm Mr. Festivals, Coachella, They never really understood what I was to do, And had me Miles Davis kinda blue I flipped the switch and put the star in my show, Went overseas and had 'em cop cars slow They're looking for me I was bad a black band Eating in the game, Pacman The issue is not a game, got these kids looking at me, saying "What a shame! He's so underrated, he have sold more had a number one record with his own tour. Look at his show, look how we touch 'em keys, Look how 'em girls when he fall to his knees! Look how he pour his heart out when he his story." i guess i had to spill my so i could get my glory!

I'm in the and they still send me free bottles, Still that G-55 with a super model. my reality, this ain't no show, brother Go check my girl on the Vogue cover And me whipping through the city in that silver Jeep Kids screaming "Oh, Ryan Leslie," Yeah, they know it's me I'm not ashamed at all, in I love my story, No matter it takes oh I'ma keep my glory!
Sh-t! The glory, it to me! oh, oh! I get it The glory, it to me!

I write my own records, my own checks, Wonder which hotel and which city I'm home next! One thing i know for sure, one thing mandatory, I owe it all to God, I him all the glory!
Sh-t! The glory, it to me! oh, oh! (x3) get my glory, it to me! (x2)
