A New Dawn Lyrics by O.C.

A New Dawn: 2nd Phase

2018

[Verse 1]
If you wake up tomorrow, it's a brand new day for a new star
Reconciliation for those who've grown apart
So ask yourself if it's worth all the fuss over the friction
If I'm wrong then I'll submit and admit this shit
The clock's ticking, settle your differences
As a team we have commitments here, it's about

[Verse 2]
Under the same moon's what I play off
It's not a game, I'm tryna hit y'all to what's upstate
Nobody under the Sun ain't exempt to pull your weight
On the other hand for me it's no time for breaks
Tryna fill up my plate, stash dough in the safe
Give grace to the Universe, forgotten my way
I've got a whole new outlook now the buzzheads asking
For more so I admit

[Break: Nina Simone sample]
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah

[Verse 3]
If the beef ain't life threatening, I walk off
Before I react now but I'm not soft
I'm no preache, I don't talk whitewash
Many walk in the dark even with the lights on
Important things I don't put a price on
There's thngs in the past today I think twice on
It's about..

[Verse 4]
In retrospect I learnt to accept
As far as the eye can see, what's real and what's not
Walk with a slow bop with my hands behind my back
Pondering my thoughts [?] is in effect
Used to curse a lot like I had to rest
Over time I calmed down, now I'm free from stress
I'm a whole different dude then I was back then
Mo' or less I confess... word up!

[Break: Nina Simone sample]
It's a new dawn
It's a new day
It's a new life for me, yeah
