5AM In Toronto Freestyle Lyrics

[Emilio Rojas]
Yeah, a thousand miles from home, an afforded condo line
A boardwalk in Venice and working out on the promenade
I seen some pain, I want the same amount in dollar signs
The nicest Latin rapper since Pun, fuck who they idolize
Fuck it, I’m drawin' lines in the sand
Ain’t no beggin' me for forgiveness, you stand and die like a man
Cats that I’d co-sign, man I should’ve signed them instead
When they realize that they need you, that’s when they start to resent

So I done traded some friendships for resentment
And I wrote some people off when I sensed they was dependent

I’m on tour with Dizzy, I told him yo I’mma get it
We rollin' in ‘85s, too civilized for a Civic woo
I left on tour the day they locked the homie Lamb away
Told him stay strong, I wrote him into a track that day

The block was sippin' on Henny black and that Grand Marnier
Ain’t no champagne since the rumors though, I can’t stand Rosay
Funny, that experience is soberin'
Just heard Volume Three, I think they whole shit is over with
I didn’t sign, man it’s a blessin' in disguise
I would’ve been intertwined with a clique that was in decline

Ain’t no dissin', I’m just givin' you facts
I heard Control once, deleted it and didn’t react
And I’ve been home once since leavin' so my chick gettin' mad
She don’t trust me where them women is at and I don’t blame her though

There ain’t no honesty left, it’s about who lyin' best
She look at my accounts like the motherfuckin' IRS
The shit is taxin', I swear ain’t no gettin' past it
I care but I’m outta character each time that I stress ugh

I’m the best, I’m the best in my city
Shit, I’m the best in your city, put your best up against me
We just wanna trade them blocks in for backyards
Money in my future, them tarot cards look like black cards
Yeah and you can charge it to the game

Experience the best teacher and lately I’m skippin' grades
Lately I’m livin' great, lately I see they hate me
‘Cause we decline invitations to all the places they can’t be

And I be where the haze be, around 168th Street
A block away from that station where that 1 train and A meet

Yeah, I’m everything that you can’t be, motherfucka you ain’t me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
