So Many Nights (feat. Devvon Terrell) - Witt Lowry, 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

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 passion’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, killed 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

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

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 perspective, 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

Not 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 passion

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

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
