The Game - A New Day lyrics

[Hook] It's a new day my turn to ball The streets is mine gotta hold it down at all cost Gotta hustle till the sun go down And I'm livin' for tomorrow just me and my 4-pound Get money is all we know Success breeds envy, then I love the dough It's a new day my turn to shine I'm startin' a new chapter on enemy lines [Verse 1] As a youth I was the truth On sunday, without a suit Gunplay, come out the roof Drivebys and shootin' hoops All I had in this cold world, was old girl Need I explain the definition of a duece-duece I was fathered by the OG's and coke heads The days of suede pumas, tube-socks, and pro-keds In California trap This is a ballad of a soulja a new era before they stitched into fitted caps You gotta feel em' black These are the given facts Vote the Doc' as President, Bush wanna diminish rap What about the sports and entertainment Never mind we more focused on Michael Jacksons arraignment And everybody wanna be famous Soon enough, The youth will be looking up to a million Lebron James's Open your eyes or forever be lost Somewhere in between west Los Angeles and east New York [Hook] [Verse 2] We gotta get up out this mothaf**a' Wether we riddle, lacrosse, or dribble out this mothaf**a' Get my mind right, it's something I had to do They tryna run me off the road on basketball avenue I been through it all, thats why I pursue to ball I was taught put it on the line win, lose, or draw I been patiently waiting' Fore' the day to meet satan So he can see my Jordans planted on the pavement Jesus Walks, to who made that immaculate statement Deserves triumph for reaching out to black, mexican, white, and asian He destined for greatness Your body is a temple, temple is sacred Once the words of a newborn Pastor Mason What's the world coming to? How will it ever end When men k**in men over women in 600 benzes Pray for the haters near me Until I'm laid and buried These are hoop dreams and the court is my sanctuary [Hook] [Fades out with Hook]
