glory / stranger
minor, derek
one day when the glory comes
one day when the war is won
that's black on black silence
you fear for your welfare
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?
when we were chained on that boat
america lynched our rights and we still hanging from the rope
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
cause it's heavy when i'm rapping
the reason for this song is that i'm asking. for the glory. of the lord
one day when the glory comes
and we'll fight on to the finish
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
i'm gonna heal your heart until the lord take this pain from you
i'm gonna feel your struggle
i'm gonna walk with you. 'til the glory. of the lord
one day when the glory comes
