[Hook] Somebody told me sleep was a cousin of death And following a dollar finds nothing but stress A marathon grind like I'm running from rest It's (5 o'clock in the morning) Somebody told me sleep was a cousin of death And following a dollar finds nothing but stress But I'm going hard 'till there's nothing left under my chest
[Verse 1: Mac Miller] The streets empty 'round 5 o'clock Driving by the cops Low key microscopic to the eyes that watch Everything a hustle when you trying come buy some guap I'm a keep grinding 'till I'm shining like a diamond watch Me and bo-head bringing you the truth With all night sessions we just living in the booth Strong bars like we spitting out 150 proof Take shots, get loose, 'till you spitting up yo' food (like ohh) You see that? I'm a need a recap Grab a weed sack chief that 'till my feet flat I got this covered like a pro bowl d-back Breathe rap and I been known to make the beat clap Need cash so I'm trying to move some trees fast Tell you where the meat at Ask you where the cheese at People 'round the city see the youngin' and respect the grind Putting in the extra time Guaranteed next to shine
[Hook]
[Verse 2: Boaz] I rise before the sun come up and get my day started Pray to the most high, I roll up my haze and spark it And then my paper starts to roll in Money in paper bags Hammers with laser tags We grown men Out on the corner 'till the early morn' The blood of a hustler getting mines before I was born You get stormed by these hot ass bars From me and Easy Mac Crusin' in the 'Lac smoking weed with no seeds in that There ain't no reason that these other rappers hatin' on us (why?) Except these labels anticipating and waiting on us They get the BBS's, radios play us Then we blaze in the Benz's And sit this off on BBS's And from P.A to Texas These niggas know about me International hustler can't move no snow without me Or get no dough without me Niggas getting they stacking on Early bird get the worm I'm out here at the crack of dawn
