5 AM in Los Angeles Lyrics

Uh, uh, look how bad you want it

Like, this is everything you ever wanted

You was gonna sit back and let the moment pass

What you gonna do, you gonna put the work in

So you know, if you don't get it, at least there ain't no regrets

You feel me

I ain't rich, I gotta take a Uber to the airport

TSA searched me down to my Air Force

This Louis luggage, baby, not a jansport

Got about an hour before the plane, board

Think it's shit, damn

Sometimes these flights feel like it's quicksand

Window seat leaning like a kickstand

Got five long hours to this shit land

We at LAX, only for a couple days

Never on tourist shit

Making moves that's gon' have me on tour and shit

Going to Toon 100 from lil Taurean

Going from MTA to see the car he in

I know how hard it is for upcoming artists

Shit, I'm still trying to figure my target audience

Playing into the politics

Mama probably wish I put the same amount of energy to get a scholarship, yeah

I acknowledge it, for all the time I put in

I could've went to Yale and got a doctorate

But judging by my passion, it's obvious

I'm on this flight like, damn, something's got to give

I'ma take it, like I do these risk

Written due on the first, I'ma pay it on the fifth

Put my faith in God, but work like he don't exist

I know that he do, but that's just how I'm locking in

And I'm laser focused

Some people, they support the grind, some others be bogus

I'ma type a nigga that'll get it, fuck waiting hopeless

Preparation when opportunity starts approaching

Sometimes it ain't the skills, how bad do you really want it

How bad do you want it

Like, fuck it, we been in the studio

Since like, seven o'clock

But it's going on five o'clock right now, 5 a.m

You feel me? Like, I don't plan on going to sleep

We gon' stay, we gon' stay here

Until like, you know, somebody tap out

Somebody say, like, I gotta go home

That's just how bad I want it now

Like, I always wanted it, but like, the focus wasn't there

Like, the drive wasn't there

It's here, I'm so focused, man

Like, we just gon' keep cranking out

Song after song, we gon' be in the studio night after night

We skipping parties

You know, just really putting an effort in, bro

So when that time comes

You look at the scoreboard

Hopefully we got more points on our side

This is what it does
