If Not For The Glory
When time is moving
Like a grain of sand
Like a broken vagrant
With nowhere to land
I could give up the fight
Throw up my hands
If not for the glory
If not for the glory
Oh the mountain calls me
Till the edge is near
Close enough to jump
But afraid to disappear
Filtered by a wave of my veneer
If not for the glory
If not for the glory
No I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burning through the sky
In the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
I'm gonna let it fly
Are you conscious of
The life you live
Attached to nothing
But ready to give
Oh the scoundrels rob you
Yet you forgive
If not for the glory
If not for the glory
Oh never let the man
Drag you down
Break free from the shackles
That got you bound
If you ever need a friend
Just turn around
It's all for the glory
It's all for the glory
No I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burnin' through the sky
In the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
I'm gonna let it fly
Oh I'm gonna let it fly
I've been drug through the dirt
Beaten by the flame
But I'm still surviving
Oh it's in my veins
No trial stands before me
Failure falls behind
I'm the one I'm living for
The glory is mine
I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burning through the sky
Oh in the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
No I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burning through the sky
Oh in the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
I'm gonna let it fly
No I'm gonna let it fly
Like a grain of sand
Like a broken vagrant
With nowhere to land
I could give up the fight
Throw up my hands
If not for the glory
If not for the glory
Oh the mountain calls me
Till the edge is near
Close enough to jump
But afraid to disappear
Filtered by a wave of my veneer
If not for the glory
If not for the glory
No I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burning through the sky
In the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
I'm gonna let it fly
Are you conscious of
The life you live
Attached to nothing
But ready to give
Oh the scoundrels rob you
Yet you forgive
If not for the glory
If not for the glory
Oh never let the man
Drag you down
Break free from the shackles
That got you bound
If you ever need a friend
Just turn around
It's all for the glory
It's all for the glory
No I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burnin' through the sky
In the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
I'm gonna let it fly
Oh I'm gonna let it fly
I've been drug through the dirt
Beaten by the flame
But I'm still surviving
Oh it's in my veins
No trial stands before me
Failure falls behind
I'm the one I'm living for
The glory is mine
I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burning through the sky
Oh in the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
No I won't break down when defeated
Rise from the ashes like a phoenix
Burning through the sky
Oh in the night I feel it rising
The part of me that's realizing
I can take back my time
I'm gonna let it fly
No I'm gonna let it fly
