When some one has worked at a dream there entire life and when they get the success they have worked hard people see it as overnight success.
In this case its a musician but you hear the same with Dr's, Athletes, and anyone else who works extremely hard for success.
Always your so lucky, wish I was that rich etc etc.
The song as a whole. We were going for that pop country vibe ala Sam Hunt.

Verse
I’m blessed up
I was messed up
Now the Sun shining on me
And I’m dressed up
Tuxedo feeling
In these old blue jeans
Steal toe boots
On a Silver screen
Years of hard work
And livin lean
I got Silverado pride
No limousine ride
Blue collar roots
Beat the spoon fed life
I’m Soaking up the moonbeams
Chorus:
Overnight
You see my western dreams
I Pulled back the hammer
Squeezed the trigger
Now look at me
I ain’t no quitter, I ain’t a 3 and out
I didn’t get what I wanted or where I am overnight
Verse
Our Backroad dreams
You ridin shotgun seat
I Didn’t have a thing
And you stuck with me
Headed to the lake
For old times sake
Leavin all the haters
In our wake
Music city lights
Blurry neon fights
Sidewalk broadway
Lovin my life
Honkeytonk Fire
And Big city nights
Takin off jetplane
No end in sight
(Chorus)
Overnight
You see my western dreams
I Pulled back the hammer
Squeezed the trigger
Now look at me
I ain’t no quitter, I ain’t a 3 and out
I didn’t get what I wanted or where I am overnight
Bridge:
I had to keep the faith
Day job grind to keep the bills at bay
Midnight oil lighting up my dreams
Lot good whiskey n self belief
I’m catching touchdowns hit the end zone baby
Chorus
Overnight
New western dreams
I Pulled back the hammer
Squeezed the trigger
Now look at me
I ain’t no up and coming ima already my first class ride
From the outside it looks like overnight

Hey Danny,
Cool song. While listening I wanted to scream going into the chorus like Steven Tyler a little bit. Lol. My thoughts are to rock it up a little. Keep the verses in the melody and tone but ramp up the chorus. Just my thoughts. Good Luck Man!!!!
