"(Stay Awake) Tonight" originated as a 'keep your head up' type song titled "Tonight (You Betta Stay Awake)". An early version of the song was posted on b-Rabbit's personal Facebook page as "Stay Awake (Tonight)" with lyrics that were run-of-the-mill 'don't give up hope' type lyrics. The song went through multiple re-writes since then and the new lyrics tackle a much heavier message.
