It's 5am, ain't nobody see the work that I'm putting in Something deep inside a thirst, I can feel it in my skin Look around me it's a curse, think I'm losing all my friends An overnight success, what they'll call it in the end I got this hunger inside of me Violently scratching and clawing The scars multiplying I need something more in this life It ain't finding me Fuck it, I'm done being silent You see, I need purpose A reason to think that it's all fucking worth it A reason to wake up and live in this circus A reason to fight all my visceral urges Growin’ up, never felt like I fit in I still don't, but it's better when I get wins On stage looking out at my best friends We gon’ get real loud till the night ends I get pissed that I still don't have a top ten It’s a fucking boys club at the top then Like a frat, get hazed just to get in I ain't doing that shit, I don't pretend (Yeah) I wanna be the best Always had a drive that I had to beat the rest Put me in the game when there's only seconds left When the games on the line, yeah, you'll see me at my best I can feel it in my heart when it's beating out my chest That's when I lock in, getting better every breath That's when I'm all in I can handle any threat I ain't never second guess I know I can be the best Let me tell you what I know about life Yeah, the more that you push And the more that you fight Is the more that you learn What you got deep inside Is the more that you learn And you find out your why It wasn't ever that cool to be a try hard But all the cool kids didn't make it that far It doesn't take education or take smarts It takes fuckin’ hard work and a full heart They ain't see the work that I put in They just see a rockstar with a big grin That's cool, I don't need recognition I just wanna be free, that's a must-win Try me in a race, I'ma dust'em If the money hiding tell'em I'ma bust in I don't understand hate, all the fussin' Get a job, get a life, go do somethin’ It's 5am, ain't nobody see the work that I'm putting in Something deep inside a thirst, I can feel it in my skin Look around me it's a curse, think I'm losing all my friends An overnight success, what they'll call it in the end I got this anger inside of my veins Pumping adrenaline when I feel pain I don't know why I was born with this I feel so torn and shit I can't ignore it, yeah I wanna punch till my knuckles are bleedin’ I want your best, so when I win you're defeated Go ahead think that my kindness is weakness I'll use that naiveness I got a disease and it’s choking and squeezing me I cannot sleep till I get what I'm seeking Need every dream in my mind be completed I live for competing it gives me a reason to live A reason to get up again and again A reason to wake up at 5am I need it to keep me from sinking, I swim If I didn't I fear I would become unhinged I don't have a limit If I want it then I get it Never quittin’ I'ma win it, in it every single minute Hitting every single inning Getting wins again and again And I'm livin' for the moment If I want it then I'll own it I can feel it in my stomach Man, I really fucking want it Man, I do it 'cause I love it I will always give a hundred Never quittin’ til' I'm first place Never been so thirsty Living life without a purpose that would be the worst case It's 5am, ain't nobody see the work that I'm putting in Something deep inside a thirst, I can feel it in my skin Look around me it's a curse, think I'm losing all my friends An overnight success, what they'll call it in the end
