Skyzoo, Pete Rock - Glorious lyrics

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

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?

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
