Overnight
I just don't get it
I don't understand
How after all these years
I still don't have a plan
A plan on what I want to do
On how I will succeed
I have allowed myself
Into a comfort zone
At times I was stuck
Getting things together
Somehow in a rut
I realized what I had done
Made myself lesser Than number one
Now I know what its time to do
Get it right
Change doesn't happen overnight
Chorus
It doesn't happen overnight
But somehow
Got to get it right
No need of staying in the comfort zone
Be great you are not alone
Verse 2
We got another chance (chance)
To come up with another plan
You can do it
Yes
You can have success
But you have to want it
You have to crave
And know soon there will be better days
It pays to hush sometimes and learn
The best things in life are not given to you
They're earned
I promise to listen
Stay woke
And know with my future its still hope!!!
Chorus
It doesn't happen overnight
But somehow
Got to get it right
No need of staying in the comfort zone
Be great you are not alone
Hook
Not overnight no
Change comes with growth
Not overnight no
Change comes with growth
Chorus
It doesn't happen overnight
But somehow
Got to get it right
No need of staying in the comfort zone
Be great you are not alone
Repeat until chorus fades
