Chase That(Ambition) - Lecrae/Brian Taylor/Marlon Montgomery/Warren Harris[00:00:00]

Started with hanging posters on my bedroom walls[00:00:10]

To battle rapping for status up in the school halls[00:00:13]

Just call me double sushi thought I was too raw[00:00:15]

And hip-hop was my home I had my shoes off[00:00:18]

6'3"in high school but skip a hoop dream[00:00:21]

If I don't blow up[00:00:23]

Then maybe I'll try this school thing[00:00:24]

I went to college to do my family a favor[00:00:26]

But I couldn't pick a major 'cause I wanted to be major[00:00:28]

I tried selling work but it didn't work[00:00:31]

So I worked shopping center clerk finna go berserk[00:00:33]

Lunch break see me writing 16's over Mickey D's[00:00:36]

Skipping class making beats over 60 keys[00:00:39]

And I love that even though I'm just chasing[00:00:41]

Selfish ambition couldn't tell your boy naything[00:00:43]

Watch out all you rappers 'cause they finna let 'Crae in[00:00:45]

But I was sleeping on the Son like a Days Inn[00:00:49]

And you can have the money and you can have the fame[00:00:53]

For me I want the glory I'm living for the Name[00:00:56]

See life is just a picture I see outside the frame[00:00:58]

I'm living for a Kingdom that I ain't never seen[00:01:01]

And I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:01:03]

Found the key to life and best believe that I'ma play that[00:01:05]

Glory I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:01:08]

Glory I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:01:10]

I remember chasing the green feeling blue[00:01:14]

Only check I'm counting is the mic check 1-2[00:01:16]

All I wanted was the money and the fame and a new[00:01:19]

Somebody on my arm when I walk inside the room[00:01:21]

All I wanted was doom[00:01:24]

The same kind Alexander the Great felt when the earth ran out of room[00:01:25]

He conquered all he could but yet he's feeling consumed[00:01:28]

By this never-ending quest for glory he couldn't fuel[00:01:31]

Like a typical fool I would go hard[00:01:34]

Shooting for the moon but there's only one sun no co-star[00:01:36]

Chasing glory I shouldn't own[00:01:39]

Instead of living to make his name known I'm running after his throne[00:01:41]

I thought being on TV where everybody could see me[00:01:44]

Was nothing short of the easiest way I could see to please me[00:01:47]

I'll never be who I used to desperately wanted to be[00:01:50]

I'm too worried about the Lord getting credit instead of me[00:01:52]

And you can have the money and you can have the fame[00:01:55]

For me I want the glory I'm living for the Name[00:01:57]

See life is just a picture I see outside the frame[00:02:00]

I'm living for a Kingdom that I ain't never seen[00:02:02]

And I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:02:05]

Found the key to life and best believe that I'ma play that[00:02:07]

Glory I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:02:10]

Glory I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:02:12]

I used to wanna do it big[00:02:15]

When you're only focused on yourself that's small[00:02:17]

And they they used to tell me as a kid[00:02:20]

That I could do anything that I want except fall[00:02:22]

And now that I recall I was chasing my goals[00:02:24]

And every time I caught 'em they multiplied into mo'[00:02:27]

I never even thought about whether the Lord approved[00:02:30]

Call it selfish ambition I call it "I'm making moves"[00:02:32]

But history repeats itself evil's what it is[00:02:34]

'Cause Lucifer was cast away for doing what I did[00:02:37]

Created by the God who spoke the earth into existence[00:02:40]

Instead of chasing the Father's glory he was chasing his[00:02:43]

He lies to us all told Adam he could ball[00:02:46]

"Why you followin'God when you could go get it all "[00:02:48]

I'll tell you what's better or better yet worse[00:02:51]

Chasing your own glory by doing the Lord's work[00:02:53]

So holler if it hurts but we were made for greater[00:02:55]

Our greatest satisfaction is making his name famous[00:02:58]

So if we're never named among the greatest they don't critically acclaim us[00:03:00]

Ain't nothing to be ashamed of we gave it up for the Savior[00:03:04]

I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:03:07]

And the Lord's goodness you should you should taste that[00:03:08]

And you ain't livin' till you livin' for his name yeah[00:03:11]

Glory I'ma chase that I'ma I'ma chase that[00:03:13]
