5AM (Overnight Success) - NEFFEX

[00:15.06] It's 5AM, ain't nobody see the work that I'm puttin' in

[00:20.64] Somethin' deep inside, a thirst, I can feel it in my skin

[00:24.62] Look around me it's a curse, think I'm losin' all my friends

[00:28.89] An overnight success, what they'll call it in the end

[00:32.61] I got this hunger inside of me, violently scratchin' and clawin'

[00:35.80] The scars multiplyin', I need something more in this life

[00:37.91] It ain't findin' me, fuck it, I'm done being silent, you see

[00:40.05] I need purpose, a reason to think that, it's all fuckin' worth it

[00:42.97] A reason to wake up and live in this circus

[00:44.83] A reason to fight all my visceral urges

[00:47.47] Growin' up, never felt like I fit in

[00:49.60] I still don't, but it's better when I get wins

[00:51.46] On stage, lookin' out at my best friends

[00:53.32] Wе gon' get real loud 'til the night еnds

[00:55.37] I get pissed that I still don't have a top ten

[00:57.50] It's a fucking boys club at the top then

[00:59.35] Like a frat, get hazed just to get in

[01:01.45] I ain't doing that shit, I don't pretend, yeah

[01:04.55] I wanna be the best, always had drive that

[01:06.88] I had to beat the rest, yeah, put me in the game

[01:08.46] When there's only seconds left

[01:09.50] When the game's on the line, yeah

[01:11.00] You'll see me at my best, I can feel it in my heart

[01:12.32] When it's beatin' out my chest, that's when I lock in

[01:14.45] Getting better every breath, that's when I'm all-in

[01:16.69] I can handle any threat, I ain't never second-guess

[01:18.80] I know I can be the best, let me tell you what I know about life

[01:20.93] Yeah, the more that you push and the more that you fight

[01:23.07] Is the more that you learn, what you got deep inside

[01:25.04] Is the more that you learn and you find out your why

[01:27.20] It wasn't ever that cool to be a tryhard

[01:29.32] But all the cool kids didn't make it that far

[01:31.18] It doesn't take education or take smarts

[01:33.30] It takes fuckin' hard work and a full heart

[01:35.96] They ain't see the work that I put in

[01:37.82] They just see a rockstar with a big grin

[01:39.41] That's cool, I don't need recognition

[01:41.29] I just wanna be free, that's a must-win

[01:43.68] Try me in a race, I'ma dust 'em

[01:45.54] If the money hidin', tell 'em I'ma bust in

[01:47.41] I don't understand hate, all the fussin'

[01:49.25] Get a job, get a life, go do somethin'

[01:51.38] It's 5AM, ain't nobody see the work that I'm puttin' in

[01:56.43] Somethin' deep inside, a thirst, I can feel it in my skin

[02:00.41] Look around me it's a curse, think I'm losin' all my friends

[02:04.94] An overnight success, what they'll call it in the end

[02:08.67] I got this anger inside of my veins

[02:10.25] Pumping adrenaline when I feel pain

[02:12.38] I don't know why I was born with this

[02:14.25] I feel so torn and shit, I can't ignore it, yeah

[02:16.64] I wanna punch 'til my knuckles are bleedin'

[02:18.75] I want your best, so, when I win, you're defeated

[02:20.35] Go ahead, think that my kindness is weakness

[02:22.20] I'll use that naïveness, I got a disease

[02:24.33] And it's choking and squeezin' me

[02:25.66] I cannot sleep 'til I get what I'm seekin'

[02:27.53] Need every dream in my mind be completed

[02:29.64] I live for competin', it gives me a reason to live

[02:32.03] A reason to get up again and again

[02:33.89] A reason to wake up at 5AM

[02:36.01] I need it to keep me from sinkin', I swim

[02:37.88] If I didn't, I fear, I would become unhinged

[02:40.27] I don't have a limit, if I want it, then I'll get it

[02:42.13] Never quittin', I'ma win it, in it every single minute

[02:43.99] Hittin' every single inning, gettin' wins again and again

[02:46.03] And I'm living for the moment, if I want it, then I'll own it

[02:48.15] I can feel it in my stomach, man, I really fuckin' want it

[02:50.28] Man, I do it 'cause I love it, I will always give a hundred

[02:52.13] Never quittin' 'til I'm first place, never been so thirsty

[02:54.25] Living life without a purpose, that would be the worst case

[02:56.11] It's 5AM, ain't nobody see the work that I'm puttin' in

[03:00.63] Somethin' deep inside, a thirst, I can feel it in my skin

[03:04.88] Look around me it's a curse, think I'm losin' all my friends

[03:08.88] An overnight success, what they'll call it in the end
