Everything Happens Overnight

I been tryna turn my wrong into a right
But I don't think that I can change it overnight
Wasn't out of hate or out of spite
I get in trouble when I do not wanna fight
Avoiding everybody in this life
An on the outside I'm not that polite
But ima be okay and be alright
Do you think that I can change it overnight

Go to sleep and pray that when I wake I ain't the same
In the deepest part of me I wanna make a change
My identity is contradicting to my name
Holding back my inner beast an acting like I'm tame
Damn but with that an issue can arise
Try to be too nice and people still decode the lies
And sometimes I break my character like hey surprise
One two three four five more times I must apologize
Damn now I'm showing who I really am
In a moment that's confusing will they understand
Pick myself from off the floor in hopes of one more chance
Overnight a miracle can make us all advance
Don't beat yourself up now any more than you can handle
Cause the first step in preventing a fire is remembering to blow out every candle

Everything is temporary
Perception doesn't last forever
You will make the changes that must be made
Nothing is permanent

I been tryna turn my wrong into a right
But I don't think that I can change it overnight
Wasn't out of hate or out of spite
I get in trouble when I do not wanna fight
Avoiding everybody in this life
An on the outside I'm not that polite
But ima be okay and be alright
Do you think that I can change it overnight
