Текст песни: 5 O'clock + перевод

It’s really real, when I feel the way that I do right now

I see all my brothers underground

Pushing up daisies, man, it amazes me

That you can’t see where you gonna be

A statistic, everybody’s gon' call ballistic

If you had a good day, damn, I must have missed it

Cause you mad at the Universe

Going to hell with everybody else cause you want your own first

I got the urge to let you in on a little secret

Cause you keep dying if I keep it

All the keeling that you’re feeling is from within

For the copper check the color of your skin

Why lie? I couldn’t try even if I had to

Born with the bullet-proof vest when I had you

A black woman trying to get through to the few

So you can leave the next crew

5 o’clock in the morning. Where you gonna be?

(Outside on the corner)

You better get yourself together

While you’re wasting all your time

Right along with your mind

5 o’clock in the morning. Where you gonna be?

(Outside on the corner)

You better get yourself together

While you’re wasting all your time

Right along with your mind

(Bink Woods Dre):

Why should I do right and suffer

I rather do wrong making that loopy and that hustler

Instead of hot-dogs I’m eating porks up in their smother

And got a gang of loot up in the safe up in my covers

On top of all that I push big fat Lex

And got my hoes that in golf course just in case I feel like flexing

So I must ask, for real though, who are you

See, I’m a big man

(Drecia Vega):

Yeah, you know you’se a big man, check it

I went for twelve years to school and never could read

A knowledge of my hood is something they can never teach me

I never started to step but I kept up with the Joneses

Having rollers… my little pinky ring

I did a lot of kinky thing the girls knew it, flock into it

I’m around my old way, yeah, they still wants to do it

Its not about the clothes that you got on your back

But the money in your pocket and if you’re down like that

Come on

5 o’clock in the morning. Where you gonna be?

(Outside on the corner)

You better get yourself together

While you’re wasting all your time

Right along with your mind

5 o’clock in the morning. Where you gonna be?

(Outside on the corner)

You better get yourself together

While you’re wasting all your time

Right along with your mind

Wella, Mr. Black Man tell me where you’re heading

The last few years I watched while you were sheading

Pounds and pounds on growth for the population

Soon we won’t be able to have a strong black nation

A shooting here, a stabbing there nowhere to stop

Cause now you’re dying from the dose of the crack rock

I’m just a Nubian Queen that needs a king to stand strong

And try to press on

It’s not a white man’s finger on the trigger

Car-jacks, drive-by's, callin' each other «nigga»

I’m not here to scold but rather shape n' mold

That young black mind that won’t live to grow old

Cause you’re fronting smoking on the blunt and

Down with your friends cause you think you’re making ends

But you’re not — and that’s the truth of the matter

Your brother gettin' skinny, cause you want your pockets fatter

5 o’clock in the morning. Where you gonna be?

(Outside on the corner)

You better get yourself together

While you’re wasting all your time

Right along with your mind

5 o’clock in the morning. Where you gonna be?

(Outside on the corner)

You better get yourself together

While you’re wasting all your time

Right along with your mind
