A Million Lives Songtext

von Jake Miller

The other day I got an email, I almost didn't read it
But something caught my eye right before I could delete it
It was bold and underlined, "Please Read" was the title
Followed by "Jake you are my idol"
It said and I quote, my name is Nikki and I used to be a dancer
Till the day the doctor diagnosed me with cancer
So I said goodbye to all the hair on my head
And hello to my hospital bed
Yeah see I was just a normal girl, it happened so fast
There were so many days that I thought would be my last
However the fight was tough, and the battle was long
But I felt strong when I listened to your songs
You were always there for me, you helped my heart beat
You were my only friend, kept you on repeat
I thank God for you every single night
'Cause believe it or not, you saved my life
I've met a million people, been in million places
Sa million hands, seen a million faces
I've had a million lows and a million more highs
No I haven't made a million, but I've touched a million lives
I've met a million people, been in million places
Sa million hands, seen a million faces
I've had a million lows and a million more highs
No I haven't made a million, but I've, but I've
Yeah the mailman knocked, said it was for me
Handed me a box, sent from Tennessee
Written on the top "for Jakes eyes only"
Inside was a journal and letter that he wrote me
It said my name is Dillon I'm in 7th grade
I'm ridiculed and picked on almost everyday
Yeah they push me in the halls, in between my classes
Yesterday they took my books then broke my glasses
I got no one to talk to, its like I don't exist
Sometimes I wonder if I was gone, would I be missed?
But let me tell you the real reason for this letter
You've helped me through it all, you've helped me feel better
You're words gimme confidence, your message is inspire me
You help me find my inner strength deep inside of me
Through all the bad times, you helped me find the light
Believe it or not, you saved my life
I've met a million people, been in million places
Sa million hands, seen a million faces
Had a million lows and a million more highs
No I haven't made a million but I've touched a million lives
Meet a million people, been in million places
Sa million hands, seen a million faces
Had a million lows, and a million more highs
No I haven't made a million but I've, but I've
I was sittin' at my table at dinner the other night
When I noticed a little girl sittin' to my right
She was lookin' at me like she knew me, I guess she did
'Cause then she walked right up to me and then she said
My name is Sami and I swear that I'm your biggest fan
I think she even had my name written on her hand
She said me and my brother used to listen to you every day
Until last year, when he passed away
I'll never forget seein' my parents cry
When they got a call sayin' that their son had died
Man I wish that he was here now, you were his favorite
He had your mixtape and he never stopped playin' it
Your music gives me a feeling that I just can't describe
It's like I got my brother back and he's still alive
I pray for both of you, every single night
'Cause believe it or not, you saved my life
I've met a million people, been in million places
Sa million hands, seen a million faces
Had a million lows, and a million more highs
No I haven't made a million, but I've touched a million lives
Met a million people, been in million places
Sa million hands, seen a million faces
Had a million lows, and a million more highs
No I haven't made a million, but I've, but I've
Now let me turn the table, and talk to you
I had a dream but your the reason that it's coming true
Yeah fans I've had some dark days, when the sun don't shine
But you always reminded me that I would be fine
Cause when no else cared, you believed in my vision
And now I got an army coming with me on my mission
I thank God for all of you, every single night
'Cause believe it or not, you saved my life
