Verse 1:
Glinda Tha Good taught me to tend to the hood
Told me to represent truth, make sure my intentions were good
Pray to the wizard for peace, maybe he'd listen to me
Daily you witness the grief, lately our kids in the streets
Street? No I meant road far from the yellow brick dough
Came up with little people, hungry and literally po'
But with her it'll be fine, she'll turn the water to wine
Make sure I'm full and I'll find, then her out waving her wand
Magic she pulls every time even when sickness occurs
Tragedy what might arrive when I don't listen to her
So I put this in my book hopin' she listens or looks
Knowin' she smile if she would, this is for Glinda Tha Good
Chorus:
Glinda Tha Good, did what she could
Always reachin' teachin' showin' the good
Stands on her own, know what she knows
Not afraid to show you the road
Glinda Tha Good, did what she could
Always reachin' teachin' showin' the good
Stands on her own, know what she knows
Not afraid to show you the road
Verse 2:
Glinda Tha Good, you always see her alone
Raising the children of Os, she does it all on her own
Never complain but I know it's got to be difficult
But she manages to smile, never let us see her low
Only let us see her glow, when we are happy she floats
When we are sad she evokes the spirit of those befo'
She always knows what to say
There with you with no delay
Bear with you in your dismay, Glinda I just want to say
All that I ever achieved was just ‘cause you believed
Even when I ain't deserve and hurt you didn't just leave
So I put this in my book hopin' you listen or look
Knowin' you smile if you would, this is for Glinda Tha Good
Chorus:
Glinda Tha Good, did what she could
Always reachin' teachin' showin' the good
Stands on her own, know what she knows
Not afraid to show you the road
Glinda Tha Good, did what she could
Always reachin' teachin' showin' the good
Stands on her own, know what she knows
Not afraid to show you the road
