Stretch your body out make sure the kicks laced /
We bout to work it out do your very best /
Give it your all here's a key to success /
A team who will come together unified /
Each individual has got to be down to ride /
Side by sideready to collide with opponents /
Going for the goal no fear you own it /
DJ would pass the rock The Bird hit the shot /
Kevin McHale and Parrish hustle on the block /
Scottie Pippen Michael Jordan and the Zen Man /
Coming together working to be a champion (6 times) /
Satisfaction of a job well done /
You wanna hear it from a coach like a father to a son

Temptation comes but you gotta stay strong /
Don't flirt with the things that do not belong /
Len Bias a bigger version of MJ /
Drafted number 2 but he never gotta play /
In the NBA cause he died draft night /
Celebrating not treating his body right /
It's a fight to live your life right /
But you can be a balla walking in the Son Light /
I once was a balla on the dark side /
Doing dark things sin killed me letting go of pride /

11.) His Eyes (Lyrics!)

His Eyes

VERSE 1:
I'm up early crack of the morning /
Blinded by the light I start yawning / 
The birds humm and the weather's like my life /
Blowing through the seasons the pain and the strife /
How did I get here it's hard to know / 
When you see the big picture then it will show /
That I am being molded by the Father's hand /
So when the wind blows I can take a stand /
A person said that God must not love /
How can He sit up there on the throne above /
And watch His own people just suffer /
When you overcome then your faith gets tougher /
I see my situation through a new eye /
A new lens I'm not just a broke guy /
It's not what you see it's how you see it /
Homeless at the moment but the reason I can see it /

HOOK:
If you could see what I see / You'd have more faith in the unseen /
But you're always so doubtful 'cause you always want it your way /
You need to run my way / I think that I got you, I think that I got you

VERSE 2:
Let me tell you that I am not a perfect man /
A lot of flaws my past I've ran / 
So trapped up I've been living in fear /
Unworthy of the gift for a lifespan /
Against truth I put up a fight /
But everything switched up when I seen the light /
Freedom that is what I felt / that is what I have sin smacked with a belt /
The Father met me like He met Paul /
On my way His grace made me fall /
I know the love even through discipline /
Don't turn away come back listen /
I wanna be like Abraham not Lot /
No doubt just faith when it hit the spot /
When the rain pours hard times I cherish /
Crying out for the people don't want them to perish /

HOOK:
If you could see what I see / You'd have more faith in the unseen /
But you're always so doubtful / 'cause you always want it your way /
You need to run my way / I think that I got you, I think that I got you
'cause you always want it your way /
You need to run my way / I think that I got you, I think that I got you

VERSE 3:
I'm being broken as a child /
Help me from a grown man proud /
My pride has swelled up Kill it /
Depend on the Father not independent /
I can't live life on my own /
And this is what I've been shown /
Where's your hope He's the prize /
Trust Him and see through His eyes

HOOK:
If you could see what I see / You'd have more faith in the unseen /
But you're always so doubtful / 'cause you always want it your way /
You need to run my way / I think that I got you, I think that I got you
'cause you always want it your way /
You need to run my way / I think that I got you, I think that I got you

10.) Grace The Cup (Lyrics)

                                                                        Grace (The Cup)

And He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you were healed. The Father made Jesus who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
This passage reveals to us the substitutionary act that had to happen for us to receive God's righteousness. I cannot even begin to understand what it means that Jesus, who was fully God, perfect and holy, could become sin, but that is what Scripture says. He became who we were so that we could become who He is.This was Jesus' cup. He was in such agony at this prospect that His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. Because sin is easy and natural for us, we cannot begin to understand what He went through. The perfect and holy son of God was agonizing over the thought of becoming sin and being separated from the Father. Yet Jesus loved us so much that He was willing to be our substitute and become sin - everything that was opposite of His nature. Perhaps one way to understand, to a small degree, is to take some attributes of Jesus and consider their opposites.
We know that Jesus is love.  Yet on that cross He experienced complete, consuming hatred. He was despised and rejected.
Jesus is the Light of the World, yet on that cross He experienced total darkness, a lack of understanding, and everything associated with sin and evil.
Scripture tells us that Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Yet on that cross, the exact opposite of peace consumed Him: total frustration, anxiety, fear, hopelessness, desperation.
Jesus Christ is Truth. Yet on that cross everything became confusing, inconsistent, and illogical. Nothing made sense.
Jesus said I am the Bread of Life. Yet on that cross He experienced emotional and spiritual hunger: longing, craving, yearning, complete dissatisfaction.
And Jesus said I am the Way. Yet on that cross He felt frustratingly lost, with no direction. He was uncertain, perplexed, bewildered, full of doubts, empty, and confused.
Christ is our security, yet on that cross He was consumed with fear, insecurity, and overwhelming loneliness. We all have felt lonely at times, but He was lonely to a degree we cannot even imagine. Jesus Christ who had experienced the completeness of a perfect relationship within the Trinity, was now totally forsaken and alone.
Jesus Christ is mercy. In becoming sin for us, He suffered the ultimate in abuse, oppression, and torture.  Any cruelty ever devised or imagined by man, He endured on the cross.
And Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ is just. Yet on that cross He endured unfairness, corruption, dishonesty, and all the emotions that go along with receiving unjust treatment. If the Roman trial had been handled fairly, Christ would have been set free. He did not deserve the cross, but He wanted to be there because He chose to stand in our place. Isaiah said He was like a lamb led to the slaughter, not uttering a sound. Perhaps Jesus was silent on the cross because had He even hinted for help, all of heaven would have responded.
On the cross Jesus endured incredible pain. Crucifixion was a brutal means of execution, deliberately slow and painful. Every joint was pulled out of its socket from the weight of the body. Jesus' physical pain and death fulfilled prophesy and were part of God's plan to bring us salvation. But more important than His physical death was that Jesus died spiritually when He was separated from His Father.  His physical pain on the cross is a stark visual picture that helps us understand, to a small degree, the dreadfulness of spiritual death. One purpose for the pain we personally experience may be to give us a glimpse of what He went through on the cross as He died for us, both physically and spiritually. Our pain should remind us of His great love for us.
While taking our place on the cross, Jesus, because of His complete separation from His Father, cried, My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me? This is the only time Jesus ever called His Father "God," because at this point God was not in the role of Father, but of righteous judge. As judge, He placed in Jesus the sins of every one of us (Me You) every sin and act of rebellion we have ever committed or ever will commit. Because Jesus Christ on the cross called His Father "God," we can now call God our "Father." What amazing grace!

08.) Jordan Copas - Hear Me (Lyrics)

HEAR ME

VERSE 1:
Daddy you was never there when I called but you was always there to just beat me down
Happy face is just such a fraud I couldn't count on you when I was about to drown
Anger raging everywhere hands around moms neck up in the air 
Never coming back like you don't care I was screaming out God man this ain't fair
Come to the hood and bring revival to the hearts of the dead men breathing
Set a fire upon my heart Lord we done with the devil's scheming
Oppression taking your people down Fresh wind come and bring a new sound
Victory is in your name Lord you hear the cries and we need you now
You're alive and we need you now We need you now and you know this Lord
Lord you are God of everything and you bring your people on one accord
I trust in you cause you gave me hope you gave Copas a way to cope 
I sunk down but I stayed afloat because you dove in and gave me hope
We live in the days of division gossiping and throwing stones
We drowning in the sea of sin bottom of the ocean davy jones
Now I gotta finish this verse off real with a shout out to my dad
Don't really know you I forgive you I love you and I ain't mad

HOOK:
Can you hear me .. Hear me .. Calling your name
We crying out for your mercy We crying out for your grace
We struggling right now dear Lord we crying out to see your face

We struggling right now dear Lord we crying out to see your face


07.) Jordan Copas - The Valley (Lyrics)

THE VALLEY


INTRO:
Ye though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil For you are with me Your rod and your staff they comfort me You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies You anoint my head with oil My cup runs over Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever

VERSE 1:
Ima never forget the day that I seen you dead
City streets running red from the blood that you bled
Tears came down my cheeks cause I knew you were gone
That's my family homie this is more than a song
I got the black hoodie on it's time to mourn can you hear the cries
From the family who is heartbroken Jenny just died
It's hard to take all the pain when your loved ones getting shot down
We be looking for that justice and I hope we get it right now
Best believe it dawg it's tough when you see your mother floored
Aint no sunshine coming down only rain and yes it poured
Kim it's hard that youre gone Uncle Mike we miss you
and little Majic is dead this is such a big issue
So many people had left I felt numb to the death
The wind it hit my chest it was cold and took my breath
I'm crying out cause I need you I come as a broken man
I've tried to be strong a warrior I'm doing all that I can

HOOK:
Were crying out Were so thirsty
We need your grace We need your mercy
It's pouring down It's raining hard
Through the valley We need you God
Though we walk through the valley We never scared
Though we walk through the valley You hear the prayers
Though we walk through the valley You can see us
Though we walk through the valley You are there

VERSE 2:
I've been living here in this hell hole where the dark knight comes at your soul
Guard your heart give it to God and don't let satan take control
You can ask my brother Mike You can ask my homie Deshawn 
You can ask my mentor Chris They've all been broken beat on
But you overcome with the blood of Christ through Him get the victory
There is nothing that you can do on your own to be set free
Free from the bondage of your sin free from the worldy ways
Free from the lust and the pride of life it's a fight every single day
And I want you to be saved I want my family free
I would like to see them sky high soaring over them seas
Overcoming the storm gliding over the mountains
Get cleaned up at the well of life and then drink from the Father's fountain
Tearing up will be no more say good bye to the night
There will be no need for the sun cause we all gunna be in that light
Dear Lord I give you my family I don't think they understand
You have the power to change this man I've seen the work of your hand

HOOK:
Were crying out Were so thirsty
We need your grace We need your mercy
It's pouring down It's raining hard
Through the valley We need you God
Though we walk through the valley We never scared
Though we walk through the valley You hear the prayers
Though we walk through the valley You can see us
Though we walk through the valley You are there

VERSE 3:
Ye though I walk through the valley 
I will fear no evil that comes for me
because you are by my side
I could always count on you to be down to ride
While I was on the streets committing felonies
You seen past the dirt and all the sin in me
and though it's been hard to see that you are there
When we cry out your name Lord you hear the prayers We need you

BRIDGE:
Ye though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death Lord We will fear no evil (4X)


06.) Jordan Copas - Fire (Lyrics)

FIRE

HOOK:
I CAN FEEL THE FIRE I CAN FEEL THE FLAMES
GOING THROUGH MY BODY RUNNING ALL THROUGHOUT MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL THE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL I CAN FEEL FIRE IN MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL I CAN FEEL FIRE IN MY VEINS
FEELS LIKE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
FEELS LIKE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS

VERSE 1:
People searching for a lover 
Keep me in the depths and teach me to go lower
I wanna be like you so i gotta serve my brother
My heart goes out to my sister my heart goes out to my mother
There's a consuming fire flaming on my heart
It's kinda like a seal and I hope it never departs
please stay with me I don't wanna face this alone
There is nothing that can stop it every seed is now sown
I know of a love that is stronger than the death
That tried to kill my family and take my mothers breath
the cries continue to echo from a little youth
you can see it in her eyes and the scars are living proof
that you are being abused It may seem like no one loves you
The pain runs deep I know who you can turn to
and He is moved by the sound of your cries
Lift up your voice He will give you doves eyes just a matter of time

HOOK:
I CAN FEEL THE FIRE I CAN FEEL THE FLAMES
GOING THROUGH MY BODY RUNNING ALL THROUGHOUT MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL THE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL I CAN FEEL FIRE IN MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL I CAN FEEL FIRE IN MY VEINS
FEELS LIKE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
FEELS LIKE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS

VERSE 2:
Through the fire you may go
How long will you be there I may never know
so step into His garden little Nevaeh you will grow
Live from the inside out in His presence you will glow
Uncle Jordan is a fighter climbing up to Zion
feasting on affliction and I'm roaring like a lion
If you find yourself slipping when you been trying
Persevere until the end because we gonna end up flying
and life is not a fairy tale no castles in the sand
a prince may never save you but my God will take your hand
He will guide you through the dark Lead you towards the light
When you're crying by your bed He'll be with you in the night
Even when you're all alone shaking in your skin
His love's a burning flame and He wants you all for Him
It may seem odd that God refines in the fire
Even Jesus felt the flames then got elevated higher He's with you

HOOK:
I CAN FEEL THE FIRE I CAN FEEL THE FLAMES
GOING THROUGH MY BODY RUNNING ALL THROUGHOUT MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL THE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL I CAN FEEL FIRE IN MY VEINS
I CAN FEEL I CAN FEEL FIRE IN MY VEINS
FEELS LIKE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
FEELS LIKE FIRE RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
