ZVK - 4 AM Lyrics

It's 4:30 AM
I can't sleep
Don't know why
I think there's too much on my head
Let me stretch out
Yeah

4AM flows
I'mma try and keep this red hot
I be moving through life
But there's so many things that are tryna make my head drop
Sometimes it's like a slap to the face or a bullet to the brain
Night night boy headshot
Other times man I don't have a clue
It feels like they just hit the switch off
4AM flows
Discovering resilience with every day I live right
My grandmother told me don't ever disappoint her
But don't forget to live so
Look inside of your soul and you could find gold and maybe get rich
If you look inside of my soul boy you gon' find out I been actin' like a female dog
It's hard to stay right when you're left
With these wrongs unfurled on you
Like how you meant to be strong and stay strong
When it feel like you got the whole world on you?
You know the worst part is everybody that I know's
Like what happened to that girl on you?
Man that's the last thing I'm thinking 'bout
The least of my worries
I'm tryna straighten my priorities
4AM flows
Listening to Kendrick got me stuck in my element
Got me thinking 'bout the tattoos on their face and their arms
I'm mistaking them for melanin
I've been looking to the Word every hour on my lunch break
They've just gone to smoke again
If anything I'mma sip wine while they sniff lines
Man that's what happens when its 4AM

Jeremiah 29 says The Lord has a plan for my life
I gotta trust it
I done seen a thousand things in this life so far
That I guess I'm not accustomed to
I gotta get adjusted ooh
But that's easier to say than do
I ain't ever gonna play the fool
At this age I see so many people lose faith
Guess it's time that I change the rules
I ain't coming out to drink I ain't social these days
Lord knows I ain't acting right
Feeling homesick sitting on my bed
Eyes low, man I think I lost my appetite
And people keep opening my door sticking they head round like
"Zak you comin' out tonight?"
Can't tell you the amount of people I've ignored
I'm selective these days and that just ain't with a phone reply
Meanwhile I'm in the back of the flat
Making these beats tryna learn more
I can hear 'em down the hall
Chatting bout problems with girls
But what d'you need a girl for?
I mean the last time I checked
It was to love and respect
To provide and protect
To look out for and care for
To trust in and cherish
But wit' you I might perish
I've been moving through life
Haters tryna cut my wings
So how you gonna fly now?
But in the meantime I be like Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now
I've been moving through life
Haters tryna cut my wings
Like how you gonna fly now?
But in the meantime I be like Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now

I can barely see the difference between winter and summer
Girl you heart stays cold out
It's nearly 5 in the morning but I'm still here
Hoping these 4AM flows hold out
Invested too much time in my dreams
For me to ever think I should fold out
So till my headline show is sold out
I'm Jhené Aiko staying souled out
Moving through life
Haters tryna cut your wings
Like how you gonna fly now?
In the meantime I be like Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now
I've been moving through life
Haters tryna cut my wings
Like how you gonna fly now?
But in the meantime I be like Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now

(I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die)
Yeah (I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die)
I be like Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now
Yeah
Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now
Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna die now
Yeah, y'know?
I be like Jesus take the wheel
'Coz I don't wanna, I don't wanna
