Lyrics

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)
 Oh (glory)
 Glory (glory)
 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 them 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?
 There's no jobs in our community and people losing hope
 Why you think he on that corner selling dope?
 It ain't for fun, it's a plan
 When we was 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)
 Oh (glory)
 Glory (glory)
 Glory (glory)
 Now the war is not over, victory isn't won
 We will fight on to the finish, then when it's all done
 We'll cry glory, oh glory
 Oh glory
 Glory
 And I'm convinced that we should love one another
 Regardless of our pigment, we all bleed the same colour
 We're made in a, image of God like no other
 It's clear the world is hurt, but I can tell you that
 He love us, He love us
 So even if you hate me, I'ma love you
 I'ma heal your heart until the Lord take this pain from you
 I'ma pray for you
 I'ma feel your struggle
 You gon' feel mine
 I'ma 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 (glory)
 Glory (glory)
 Glory (glory)
