Jake Miller - A Million Lives lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 dancer Til the day the doctor diagnosed me with cancer So I said goodbye to all the hair on my head And said 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 sponsored links Cause believe or not, you saved my life [Hook] I've met a million people, been a million places Shook a 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 a million places Shook a million hands, seen a million faces Ive had a million lows, and a million more highs No I haven't made a million, but I've touched a million lives [Verse 2] 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 cla**es Yesterday they took my books then broke my gla**es 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 lemme tell the real reason for this letter You've helped me through it all, you've help me feel better You're words gimme confidence, your messages inspire me You help me find my inner strength deep inside me Through all the bad times, you helped me find the light Believe or not, you saved my life [Hook] [Verse 3] 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, 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 my brother used to listen to you every day Until last year, when he pa**ed away I'll never forget seein' my parents cry When they got a call sayin' that your son had died Man I wish that he was here now, you were his favorite He had your mixtape and never stopped playin' it Your music gives me a feelin that I just can't describe Its like I got my brother back, and hes still alive I pray for both of you, every single night Cause believe or not, you saved my life [Hook] [Skit] Now lemme turn the table, and talk to you I had a dream but your the reason that its comin' true Yeah 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 comin' with me on my mission I thank God for all you, every single night Cause believe or not, you saved my life
