Give Him Glory (Despised)

Give him glory
Give him glory

I've had dreads braids
Mean crossover with an uptown fade
Criminal background locked up five times
And I'm a white man with a mic I rhyme
Wait white people don't get me
They say I need to be more white
Black people don't get me either
They say my color don't look right
My family don't like me
They call me n i double g
Lover of another color
Colorblind best way to be
I've never really fit in anywhere I go I guess I will be an outcast
I'm another penny on the floor like the homeless man that I've been it's my past

I've been despised
And I've been hated
Looked down upon
And I've done waited
For my second chance
Now I got this cross
On my back and the world don't like me more than ever before but I will
Give him glory give him glory
Cause we don't deserve it
Give him glory give him glory
No we can't even earn it
Give him glory give him glory
Yeah he's deserving the praise
I cannot take any credit for what the Lord has done in my life so I will
give him glory give him glory
Cause we don't deserve it
Give him glory give him glory
No we can't even earn it
Give him glory give him glory
Yeah he's deserving the praise
I cannot take any credit for what the Lord has done in my life so I will
Give him the glory

This is my story that god he can use
If you take the glory that means you abuse
What do you want look at satan you chose?
It's a long long way down
What's the purpose behind gettin glory tell me
I was the number one kid on the playground
Pride to the core yeah baby
Look at me look at me yeah
It was all about me
But we need to be free
We need to be free
Don't look at me
Now I point to the king
When I started to give all the glory to Jesus
And lift up his name the people despised
He opened my eyes and he toughened my skin
Heart molded for him through all of the cries

I've been despised
And I've been hated
Looked down upon
And I've done waited
For my second chance
Now I got this cross
On my back and the world don't like me more than ever before but I will
Give him glory give him glory
Cause we don't deserve it
Give him glory give him glory
No we can't even earn it
Give him glory give him glory
Yeah he's deserving your praise
I cannot take any credit for what the Lord has done in my life so I will

I remember my body was boiling all over
No one knew exactly what it was
I was itching and scratching with knives
Cried throughout the night from pain that it caused
My whole body was hurting and I couldn't sleep
This was going on for bout a year Demonic attacks surrounded my life
I was pinned to the floor in fear
Working two jobs while homeless
Not one penny from the government
No glory to me only glory to god
He's the one that gives me the empowerment
He gave me a voice after I wouldn't open up
Yeah this is the truth
No sugar coating these artists that wants all the glory
Stay out of the booth

Give him glory give him glory
All the glory to Jesus
Give him glory give him glory
All the glory to Jesus
Give him glory give him glory
All the glory to Jesus
I cannot take any credit for what the Lord has done in my life so I will
I've been despised
And I've been hated
Looked down upon
And I've done waited
For my second chance
Now I got this cross
On my back and the world don't like me more than ever before but I will
Give him glory
