The other day I got an email,I almost didn't read it |
| [00:12.734] |
But something caught my eye right before I could delete it |
| [00:16.801] |
It was bold and underlined,"Please Read"was the title |
| [00:18.832] |
Followed by "Jake you are my idol" |
| [00:20.355] |
It said and I quote,my name is Nikki and I used to be dancer |
| [00:22.895] |
Til the day the doctor diagnosed me with cancer |
| [00:25.440] |
So I said goodbye to all the hair on my head |
| [00:27.980] |
And hello to my hospital bed |
| [00:29.507] |
Yeah see I was just a normal girl,it happened so fast |
| [00:32.53] |
There were so many days that I thought would be my last |
| [00:35.605] |
However the fight was tough,and the battle was long |
| [00:38.147] |
But I felt strong when I listened to your songs |
| [00:40.690] |
You were,always there for me,you helped my heart beat |
| [00:43.231] |
You were my only friend,kept you on repeat |
| [00:45.263] |
I thank God for you every single night |
| [00:47.297] |
Cause believe or not,you saved my life |
| [00:49.334] |
I've met a million people,been a million places |
| [00:52.382] |
Shook a million hands,seen a million faces |
| [00:54.922] |
Had a million lows,and a million more highs |
| [00:57.968] |
No I haven't made a million,but I've touched a million lives |
| [01:00.512] |
I've met a million people,been a million places |
| [01:02.545] |
Shook a million hands,seen a million faces |
| [01:05.88] |
Had a million lows,and a million more highs |
| [01:07.627] |
No I haven't made a million,but I,but I |
| [01:10.680] |
Yeah the mailman knocked said it was for me |
| [01:12.712] |
Handed me a box,sent from Tennessee |
| [01:15.253] |
Written on the top "for jakes eyes only" |
| [01:17.798] |
Inside was a journal and letter that he wrote me |
| [01:20.846] |
It said my name is Dillon I'm in 7th grade |
| [01:23.386] |
I'm ridiculed and picked on almost everyday |
| [01:24.909] |
Yeah they push me in the halls in between my classes |
| [01:27.960] |
Yesterday they took my books then broke my glasses |
| [01:31.12] |
I got no one to talk to,it's like I don't exist |
| [01:34.58] |
Sometimes I wonder if I was gone,would I be missed? |
| [01:36.597] |
But lemme tell the real reason for this letter |
| [01:38.627] |
You helped me through it all,you help me feel better |
| [01:41.168] |
You're words gimme confidence,your messages inspire me |
| [01:43.200] |
You help me find my inner strength deep inside me |
| [01:46.256] |
Through all the bad times,you helped me find the light |
| [01:48.798] |
Believe or not,you saved my life |
| [01:50.833] |
I was sittin'at my table at dinner the other night |
| [01:53.378] |
When I noticed a little girl sittin'to my right |
| [02:10.164] |
She was lookin'at me like she knew me,I guess she did |
| [02:19.308] |
Cause then she walked right up to me,and then she said |
| [02:21.850] |
My name is Sami and I swear that I'm your biggest fan |
| [02:24.391] |
I think she even had my name written on her hand |
| [02:26.929] |
She said me my brother used to listen to you every day |
| [02:29.471] |
Until last year,when he passed away |
| [02:31.503] |
I'll never forget seein'my parents cry |
| [02:33.27] |
When they got the call sayin'that your son had died |
| [02:37.97] |
Man I wish that he was here now,you were his favorite |
| [02:39.636] |
He had your mixtape and he never stopped playin'it |
| [02:42.177] |
Your music gives me a feelin that I just can't describe |
| [02:45.225] |
It's like I got my brother back,and hes still alive |
| [02:47.768] |
I pray for both of you,every single night |
| [02:49.292] |
Cause believe or not,you saved my life |
| [02:59.847] |
Now lemme turn the table,and talk to you |
| [03:12.565] |
I had a dream but you're the reason that it's comin'true |
| [03:16.631] |
Yeah I've had some dark days,when the sun don't shine |
| [03:19.170] |
But you always reminded me that I would be fine |
| [03:21.713] |
Cause when no else cared,you believed in my vision |
| [03:24.253] |
And now I got an army comin'with me on my mission |
| [03:27.299] |
I thank God for all of you,every single night |
| [03:29.837] |
Cause believe or not,you saved my life |
