5AM Victory

[singing] Yeah.

5 AM, city still asleep.

But I made it out, yeah,

I made it out.

This one's for the ones who

believe, when I ain't even believe

in myself.

One week, before-twenty, I seen her

face.

Phils on a Thursday, she had

that grace.

Walked up confident, no hesitation.

"You the most beautiful," pure admiration.

She thought I was running game,

I was innocent.

Spiritual connection, that was the evidence.

Only twenty dollars to my name,

but I had everything.

First time alone with a woman,

I'm shaking.

Showed her growth with history in

the ink, and Dina said she'd

beat if I ever hurt her

friend.

I said, "She'll hurt me Look

how that story end, ordered her

with my last, that's love in

its purest.

Crossed the forest of class, yeah,

the struggle was the truest.

She wanted more of my time,

but I couldn't explain.

Broke phone, empty pockets, fighting through

the pain.

Well, now it's 5 AM, and

I'm running through the six.

Same kid who ain't have ish,

look at all of this.

Gabby was the reason that I

built it from the floor.

Every late night grinding, she's what

I was doing it for.

5 AM, victory, I finally won.

But I learned you gotta be

somebody before you be someone's son.

Nah, son of one's one.

She was Retweeting dudes, pushing

Beamers.

I was selling laptops, chasing bigger

dreams.

Made a four-month plan, wouldn't speak,

put an equal.

To develop myself so I could

finally reach to her.

Started making my bed, a Aman,

had my back.

Only real one who knew what

I lacked.

They thought I was weird, yeah,

look at me now.

Took the impossible route, and I

figured it out.

DailyRapFacts Rap Facts, born from the

basement.

Twenty 2016, broke, but I had

the foundation.

Kicked out of school, but I

knew the vision.

Twenty 2017, software engineer position.

Sixty K, zero experience on the

resume.

Impossible again, that's the only way

I play.

DM'd Dina for the keys to

her heart, but I was too

late.

She had already moved on.

Now it's 5 AM, and I'm

running through the six.

Same kid who ain't have ish,

look at all of this.

Gabby was the reason that I

built it from the floor.

Every late night grinding, she's what

I was doing it for.

Twenty 2018, wearing chains to the

office.

Biggest music page, they know who

the boss is.

Don't gotta introduce myself at the

party.

They already know, Daily Rap Facts

story.

September, text her, she said,

"Heyyyyy" Me and my Aman

walking King Street, we made it

today.

Fumbled to Nathan, came back in

'19.

She gave me chances I ain't

even deserve to be seeing.

Laughed after "what are we" couldn't

believe I arrived.

She cried on the phone, I

was barely alive.

Hamza in my DMs, exposing the

truth.

Hot girl summer while I'm locked

in the booth.

Grinding at my desk just to

dodge the pain.

Catching flights to New York like

school was a game.

Only reason I enrolled was proximity

to her.

Now the whole world know me,

everything's a blur.

2020 staircase, staircase, opened the jar.

She watched me become everything, a

star.

Said I'm too good, said she'd

only hurt me.

But kee, she called every night,

aligned my sleep perfectly.

Gave me rhythm when my life

had none.

Slapped health into the me, yeah,

she's the one.

But gave me whole just to

leave again, but I ain't bitter.

Nah, I had to win.

5 AM in Toronto, lights across

the lake.

Every scar, every loss, worth what

it take.

She might have left, but she

built what you see.

The kid with twenty dollars is

finally free.

Yeah, finally free.

Gabby, I hope you watching.

Everything I built started with that

one option.
