[Intro: Devvon Terrell]
So many nights I pray for the day
I knew for my dream, I do whatever it takes
Now here I stand, no one in my way
And now I'm surrounded by all that people say
[Verse 1: Witt Lowry]
Yeah, they told me time is of the essence
I ain't sweating, I'm blessed, blessing the tenants
While everybody changing, I never stray from my message
As I sit inside my room, it's a tomb to every invention
And every line that I never gave the time or attention
I'm learning my lesson, you looking for a mention, it's funny
What you would do for the approval of a room full of dummies
You think I made it?, but I'm stuck here serving burgers for money
It's funny how I'm selling beef for you to want beef from me
My written turned into a vision, my vision a reality
My chips are on my dream and you seem to try to devalue me
Value me as less, I got no desk or a salary
You value me by likes on my pictures, not personality
Living my own reality, manifested my vision
Looking at the sky, thanked God for what I was given
Based on how I'm living, I'm wondering if I'll get it
Your pa**ion'll set you free and your fear is more like a prison
We're driven, living life, hope I'm doing it right
Went through hell with a knife, k**ed every demon in sight
I went through darkness of night to find the brightest of light
You only dreaming at night, I turn my dream into life
We're letting go of who left, you never thought it was right
[Hook: Devvon Terrell]
So many nights I pray for the day
I knew for my dream, I do whatever it takes
Now here I stand, no one in my way
And now I'm surrounded by all that people say
But I will never change at all-all-all-all-all
I will never change at all-all-all-all
I will never change at all-all-all-all-all
I will never change at all-all-all-all
I will never change at all
[Verse 2: Witt Lowry]
Yeah, I could've never planned my life like this
I graduated, got a job and still I chose just to write like this
You see the people need advice like this
Building something out of nothing
I ain't bluffing with a sight like this
I know I'm nice when I write, you're like "I don't get"
A hater all over my Twitter like "Mark, what's this?"
It takes intelligence to listen, something I can't give
I flip the prespective, you see what I just did?
Do you get it? Now take a minute
No, it takes you a minute to keep it real
I'm still broke, but got beautiful women
Who see me as an opportunity, hot human
Was given an opportunity from no one ever
Who am I kidding?
Fought for my vision, built a team who all believe in my pa**ion
I'm on my way out to LA, I wonder "How did this happen?"
I turned my dream into a team who all believe in my rap
And you went from laughing to a picture when my lyrics are captioned
And honestly I want this more than ever breathing
The people that need a voice, I'm the voice of people believing
My family all believing it's all in me to achieve it
Don't do it because we want it, we want it because we need it
[Hook: Devvon Terrell]
So many nights I pray for the day
I knew for my dream, I do whatever it takes
Now here I stand, no one in my way
And now I'm surrounded by all that people say
But I will never change at all-all-all-all-all
I will never change at all-all-all-all
I will never change at all-all-all-all-all
I will never change at all-all-all-all
I will never change at all
