The narrative weaves melodically through a beat that is both uplifting & disciplined, uncovering the deeper, more intrinsic themes of conflict and confrontation, to growth and enlightenment. “Glory” is a song about how courage and determination to face the things one struggles with, grows into peace, humility, and contentment.”
