So Many Nights (feat. 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
