I woke up sunday with a purple spot on my bottom lip. it's been there many years but it's never blown up and not shrunk back down. ?

Sound like a blood: blister, a swollen vein. Perhaps from biting at the smaller bump that is always there. Warn compresses and it should resolve again but see your doctor immediately (or the ER) if this turns into an expanding blood pocket down the face or neck.
