5AM in Amsterdam Lyrics

Yea

Keep quiet never speak on no man

Who am I to judge, complain or condemn

I make profit off judgement directed towards me, I'm different than them

You see men walking around with baggage, I'm no different than them

Nothing new to me, having different smears on my name

They talk and talk like they got something to gain

Like I could give a fuck about the next thing anybody gone say

I got one goal and that's to be on top of my game

We sit and talk about money and how rich we all wanna be

Discuss short-term goals like what we'll accomplish this week

Are you applying principles needed consecutively

To be a better man than the one you aspire to be

Some come around like "money don't make you happy, I doubt"

I'm like "I'm already happy the fuck you talking about"

We all got shit on our plates we all gotta worry about

Except for fam and finance nothing's worth stressing about

More come around like "don't you have a backup plan set"

Like I would rather be dead than settle for anything less

I'm given one life and I don't give a fuck bout what's next

Everybody don't make it and I guess that's for the best, that's double meaning

Yea

Ain't no way around it

My mom's always like "find somebody to talk about it"

"Cause I know you got problems and you don't talk about it"

A mother knows I can tell, I never complain about it

Dark place, a lonely state

Million thoughts and voices invade my private space

If I'm not drinking at night, I would feel my heartbeat raise

I can finally say that I'm in a solid state

Yea

I take responsibility for everything that happens to me

You seek attention and approval when you talk about me

Whether you love me or hate me, it makes no difference to me

You live in fantasy thinking that you got leverage on me

Long distance relationship with the people that I love the most

The shit a man would do to reach all his goals

It gets discouraging out when you walk a lonely road

Just keep your head up and have faith and don't lose your hope

I got people keeping me in line

And they'll address me everytime I'm acting out of line

I know exactly who's concerned about how I feel inside

I know who wants me to fall and who wants to see me thrive

Yea

Lost relationships, people I feel like I should reach out to them

Pride that holds me back from reaching out to them

I know I'm stubborn in ways, when it comes to making amends

Lack of interest and reasons to try and reason with them

Wide awake, I take a walk outside, 5AM in Amsterdam

Light up a cigarette, it's -1 out

I talk to something, whatever it is, it hears me call out

And ask for love as they get close and I kick them all out

Half a bottle down, I'm running out of cigarettes now

My mind's not quiet enough to sleep, so I'll go the next round

Keep people out, I need to be alone to figure shit out

Talk to the wall with all the lights out, as I sit on the couch

And seriously, when you're down no one takes you seriously

And as you're walking forward, make sure that you do it carefully

I lost count of who out here dreaming of ending me

Sometimes I lose means to stay sain and not move revengefully

No mercy in a world without fairness and justice

Make sure you level leverage to a higher abundance

Rise up and stay immune to a state of redundance

It's unable for the opps to confront it

Yea
