Chase That lyrics

[Verse 1]

Started with hangin’ posters on my bedroom walls


To battle rappin’ for status up in the school halls


Just call me double sushi, thought I was too raw


And hip-hop was my home, I had my shoes off


6’3 in high school, well skip a hoop dream


If I don’t blow up then maybe I’ll try this school thing


I went to college to do my family a favor

But I couldn’t pick a major ‘cause I wanted to be MAJOR


I tried sellin’ work, but it didn’t work


So I worked, shopping center clerk, finna go berserk


Lunch break, see me writin’ 16’s over Mickey D’s


Skippin’ class, makin’ beats, over 60 keys


And I love that even though I’m just chasin’


Selfish ambition couldn’t tell your boy naythin’


Watch out all you rappers cuz they finna let ‘Crae in


But I was sleepin’ on the Son, like a Days Inn

[Hook]

And you can have the money, and you can have the fame


For me I want the glory, I’m livin’ for the Name


See life is just a picture, I see outside the frame


I’m livin’ for a Kingdom that I ain’t never seen


And I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that


Found the key to life and best believe that I’ma play that


Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that


Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that

[Verse 2]


I remember chasin’ the green, feelin’ blue


Only check I’m countin’ is the mic check, 1-2


All I wanted was the money and the fame and a new


Somebody on my arm when I walk inside the room


All I wanted was doom


The same kind Alexander the Great felt when the earth ran out of room


He conquered all he could but yet he’s feelin’ consumed


By this never-ending quest for glory he couldn’t fuel


Like a typical fool I would go hard

Shootin’ for the moon but there’s only one sun [Son], no co-star


Chasin’ glory I shouldn’t own


Instead of living to make his name known I’m runnin’ after his throne


I thought bein’ on TV where everybody could see me


Was nothing short of the easiest way I could see to please me


I’ll never be who I used to desperately wanted to be


I’m too worried ‘bout the Lord gettin’ credit instead of me



[Hook]

And you can have the money, and you can have the fame


For me I want the glory, I’m livin’ for the Name


See life is just a picture, I see outside the frame


I’m livin’ for a Kingdom that I ain’t never seen


And I’ma chase that, glory I’ma chase that


Found the key to life and best believe that I’ma play that


Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that


Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that

[Verse 3]


I used to wanna do it big


When you’re only focused on yourself that’s small


And they, they used to tell me as a kid


That I could do anything that I want, except fall


And now that I recall, I was chasin’ my goals


And every time I caught ‘em they multiplied into mo’


I never even thought about whether the Lord approved


Call it selfish ambition, I call it, “I’m makin’ moves”


But history repeats itself, evil’s what it is


‘Cause Lucifer was cast away for doing what I did


Created by the God who spoke the earth into existence


Instead of chasing the Father’s glory, he was chasin’ his


He lies to us all, told Adam he could ball


“Why you followin’ God when you could go get it all?”


I’ll tell you what’s better, or better yet worse


Chasin’ your own glory by doin’ the Lord’s work


So holla if it hurts, but we were made for greater


Our greatest satisfaction is making His name famous


So if we’re never named among the greatest, they don’t critically acclaim us


Ain’t nothin’ to be ashamed of, we gave it up for the Savior

[Hook]


I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that


And the Lord’s goodness, you should you should taste that


And you ain’t livin’ till you livin’ for his name, yeah


Glory I’ma chase that, I’ma I’ma chase that
