1st verse
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?
2nd verse
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
3rd verse
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
