lyrics
Intro:
[El G.nie]
Yea!
El G.nie and Corinna
A new time
Chorus:
[Corinna]
It's a new year it's a new time
I got the light so I have to shine
it's a new year on the same grind
this year is mine this year is mine (x2)
Verse:
[El G.nie]
It's a new year gotta start off on the right foot
Jotting a bunch of insights inside this rhyme book
New opportunities line wherever I look
I'll gather as many as I can until my time's up
My mind's stuck in reverie quite the visionary
I'll manage to see it through even if my vision's blurry
Calm mind, but down to business like I'm in a hurry
Sturdy when situations get a little furry
Hook:
[El G.nie]
I can't it slip from my fingertips
no I can't let it slip from my hands
any negativity I get rid of it
so nothing can interfere with His plans
Verse Ending:
[El G.nie]
God's with me, I talk to Him everyday, I always pray
Never know when He'll decide to take my life away
Until then I'll work with the abilities He's given me
Instilled a mini seed which I'll see to be a bigger tree
(Chorus)
Verse:
[El G.nie]
Ready to take risks feeling optimistic
regret doesn't exist oh well if I might have missed it
because there's plenty more to see plenty more for me
plenty more for the world many empty cores to reach
Word to Tina, I hold a dollar and a dream
But I'll flip it so my pockets seem to bust at the seams
I see it coming, but vicious critics be mean mugging
I put effort into tryna make this music mean something
Hook:
[El G.nie]
I can't it slip from my fingertips
no I can't let it slip from my hands
any negativity I get rid of it
so nothing can interfere with His plans
Verse Ending:
[El G.nie]
It's a new season so I'll treat it as such
Leaving nothing uncovered and just believing I could
It's not about the money, but I need to make a living
It's about the music yet I rather make a difference
(Chorus)
Outro:
[El G.nie]
Yea!
You see we in a different season in our lives
And it's up to us to make the best of it
Uh huh
El G.nie!
