PHANATIK - Shot Clock (Brand New Day) lyrics

[Verse One]

Yes Sir, Yeah Sis

If you can hear through Hip-hop than hear this

Here it is fresh off the presses

Here to lift souls and clear all depression

Cuz I know what it's like

When the sun is all shining but your soul feels night

Feels like you're caught under gloom's dark presence

With a little light shining like the moons sharp crescent

How many days gone by

When I said I was gonna win and I ain't even try

I wake up at half court

The day is half gone and time left on the board is madd short

Rushing my shot, hurry out the door

I don't pray I don't take my worries to the Lord

How much time does it take to run the floor

Get the stop watch or maybe I should stop and watch the Lord

Everyday is a new 24, on the shot clock

Either get your shot blocked or score

[Chorus]

Brand new day

With each new day that's dawnin'

Every time night turns to morning

Grace is new, Mercy is new, what you gone do with it

If life is a game you can never play in again

Would you stay in your sin or start trainin' aimin' to win?

[Verse Two]

I'm so down in points at this point I'll take brownie points

Especially with the people I love

I wish I could win or at least take the lead by a hug

Sometimes when I'm leavin' I shrug

Hoping they feel me like really E.Q.'d up subs

I hope they know that I'm doing a good thing

That's the reason I'm not around as much as I could be

And when I'm around I'm often drained

But I don't want relationships getting lost and strained

I'm always telling myself

Don't leave your lights out, be a lighthouse for someone else

I could do more before I hit the floor

Let me cop a squat, put in some quality time for sure

Everyday is a new 24, on the shot clock

Either get your shot blocked or score

[Chorus]

[Verse Three]

I love the way the Lord taught the church

He had a simple game plan when He walked the earth

A balance between doing, and being with the people He loved

And spending time with the father above

If I could master the art of the latter part

I could keep from having to march back to start

There's so many things to do

And this brings me to by chief need which is to cling to you

Maslow's hierarchy listed the priority

Of the order of the things that we need and I guess it varies

From the need to feed and to find love and to seek

To succeed but he missed the one thing that necessary

The Lord's standing at the door

Of your heart knocking unlock it watch He's got a lot in store

Today is a new 24, on your shot clock

Will you get your shot blocked or score
