[Intro Jeremy lin] 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 Gods glory [Hook Jin] Yeah I been on my grind Reachin for the top and youve been on mind They stready tryin to stop my shine But its always been yours its 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 [Verse Jin] See this if life to me to you its entertainment Its quite intricate and only I can explain it To say Ive 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 whats goin on even when my eyes are closed Guarantee youre not stoppin me or blockin me All I need is one shot promised youll be shocked to see The outcome I dont 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 [Hook Jin] Yeah I been on my grind Reachin for the top and youve been on mind They stready tryin to stop my shine But its always been yours its 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 [Verse 2 Jin] Yes Im 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 youre the head of design And in any circumstance you said Ill 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 Youre 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 dont I deserve its all the above Where amazing happens I love this game Only one reason Im playing and god is his name [Hook Jin] Yeah I been on my grind Reachin for the top and youve been on mind They stready tryin to stop my shine But its always been yours its 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 [Outro Jeremy Lin] I think also something that I needed to learn was just because you pray and just because you give it up to god doesnt mean that youre gonna win, and doesnt mean that youre necessarily gonna have a great performance and all that, but I think theres something special about playing the right way and having the right attitude even if you dont necessarily win or have a successful career
