Glory / Stranger

One day when the glory comes
It will be ours, it will be ours
Oh, one day when the war is won
We will be sure, we will be sure
Oh glory (glory, glory)
Oh (glory, glory)

Black on black crime, black on black violence
We don't talk to police, that's black on black silence
Living on welfare, living in hell here
When everybody is broke, you fear for your welfare
Uh, look at those thugs, how dangerous they are with gun in hand
Look what them ghetto girls posting on their Instagram
Don't bring them to our church, 'cause we don't want that riffraff
What you expect when most of us grew up wishing for dads?
No jobs in our community and people losing hope
Why you think he's on that corner selling dope?
It ain't for fun, it's a plan
When we were chained on that boat, America lynched our rights and we still hanging from the rope
And I promise, I want to leave it in the past; but it's hard
'Cause I've just seen an unarmed teen shot down like a dog
I pray you hear my heart, cause it's heavy when I'm rapping
See, the reason for this song is that I'm asking... for the glory... of the Lord

One day when the glory comes
It will be ours, it will be ours
Oh glory (glory, glory)
Oh (glory, glory)

Now the war is not over, victory isn't won
And we'll fight on to the finish, then when it's all done
We'll cry glory, oh glory (glory, glory)
Oh (glory, glory)
We'll cry glory, oh glory (glory, glory)
Oh (glory, glory)

And I'm convinced that we should love one another
Regardless of our pigment we all bleed the same color
We're made in the image of God like no other
It's clear the world is hurt, but I can tell you that He loves us, He loves us
So even if you hate me, I'm gonna love you
I'm gonna heal your heart until the Lord take this pain from you
I'm gonna pray for you
I'm gonna feel your struggle
You gonna feel mine
I'm gonna walk with you... 'til the glory... of the Lord

One day when the glory comes
It will be ours, it will be ours
Oh glory (glory, glory)
Oh (glory, glory)
Oh glory (glory, glory)
