MC Jin - Nick Of Time lyrics

The biggest thing is to
Understand that your talent
Your ability to play basketball is
A gift from God i think the biggest thing
Is to understand that
You have to use that for God's glory

Yeah I been on my grind
Reachin' for the top and you've been on mind
They stready tryin' to stop my shine
But, it's always been yours
It's never been mine
You always come thru just in the nick of time
You come thru in the nick of time
You come thru in the nick of time
So I give it up to you everytime I shine

See this if life to me
To you it's entertainment
It's quite intricate and only
I can explain it to say I've come a long
Way would be an understatement
The moment of truth every
Single one is savored
Chasing greatness not the pressure
That it came with
Far from picture perfect observe
As I paint it
Dealing with the games highs and lows
You win some you lose some yeah I suppose
But when the sweet smell of
Victory is by my nose
I see what's goin' on even
When my eyes are closed
Guarantee you're not stoppin' me
Or blockin' me
All I need is one shot promised
You'll be shocked to see
The outcome I don't just play to win
Everytime I lace up yeah I play for him
Doin' my all to make sure
That your glory is known
While they fighting for the title see
The king on his throne

Yeah I been on my grind
Reachin' for the top and you've been on mind
They stready tryin' to stop my shine
But, it's always been yours
It's never been mine
You always come thru just in the nick of time
You come thru in the nick of time
You come thru in the nick of time
So I give it up to you everytime I shine

Yes I'm really here to serve
You not just pretend to
With each setback I intend to
Learn from experience and get
Better with time
No matter what I achieve none
Of the credit is mine
In the grand scheme of things
You're the head of design
And in any circumstance you said I'll be fine
The ultimate play maker I follow your lead
Never find need to feed into these naysayers
Who repeatedly told me that
I would never make
You're probably testing me to see
If I could take it
The bond between us they could never break it
All that you have given me
I shall not forsake it
Your grace patience and all of your love
Which one don't I deserve it's all the above
Where amazing happens I love this game
Only one reason I'm playing and
God is his name

Yeah I been on my grind
Reachin' for the top and you've been on mind
They stready tryin' to stop my shine
But, it's always been yours
It's never been mine
You always come thru just in the nick of time
You come thru in the nick of time
You come thru in the nick of time
So I give it up to you everytime I shine

I think also something that I needed
To learn was just because
You pray and just because you give it up to
God doesn't mean that you're gonna win
And doesn't mean that
You're necessarily gonna have a great
Performance and all that
But, I think there's something
Special about playing
The right way and having the
Right attitude even if you don't necessarily
Win or have a successful career
