  • The most amazing feeling I feel
    Words can't describe the feeling, for real
    Baby, I paint the sky blue
    My greatest creation was you
    You, glory (oh glory)

    False alarms and false starts
    All made better by the sound of your heart
    All the pain of the last time
    Prayed so hard it was the last time
    Your mama said that you danced for her
    Did you wiggle your hands for her?
    Glory! Glory!
    Glory! Sorry
    Everything that I prayed for
    God's gift, I wish I woulda prayed more
    God makes no mistakes, I made a few
    Rough sledding here and there, but I made it through
    I wreak havoc on the world
    Get ready for part two
    A younger, smarter, faster me
    So a pinch of Hov, a whole glass of Bey

    Glory (oh glory)

    The most amazing feeling I feel
    Words can't describe the feeling, for real (oh glory)
    Baby, I paint the sky blue
    My greatest creation was you

    Your Grandpop died a nigga failure
    Then he died of liver failure
    Deep down he was a good man
    Goddamn, I can't deliver failure
    Bad-ass lil' Hov
    Two years old, shopping on Savile Row, ooh
    Wicked-ass lil B
    Hard not to spoil you rotten, looking like little me
    The most beautifulest thing in this world
    Is daddy's little girl
    You don't yet know what swag is but you was made in Paris
    And Mama woke up the next day and shot her album package
    Last time the miscarriage was so tragic
    We was afraid you'd disappear, but nah, baby, you magic (voilà)
    So there you have it, shit happens
    Just make sure the plane you on is bigger
    Than your carry-on baggage
    Everybody go through stuff
    Life is a gift, love, open it up
    You're a child of destiny
    You're the child of my destiny
    You're my child with the child from Destiny's Child
    That's a hell of a recipe
    Glory! Glory!
    Glory! Sorry

    Glory (oh glory)

    The most amazing feeling I feel
    Words can't describe the feeling, for real (oh glory)
    Baby, I paint the sky blue
    My greatest creation was you
