[INTRO]
Yeah…
Five in the morning
Curtains still open
I know I should sleep, but—
I’m still up.
[CHORUS]
Still up, still up
Whole city down but I’m still up
Phone on DND, don’t hit us
Too much on my mind, can’t give up
Still up, still up
Sun coming through and I’m still up
Been chasing something I can’t touch
Maybe I want this shit too much
[VERSE 1]
Eyes low, dashboard glow
Cold outside, but I ride real slow
Same road, nowhere to go
Just need somewhere my thoughts don’t know
They see the plays, they don’t see the pressure
They see me up, think everything better
New little numbers keep coming together
But peace still something I can’t measure
I remember nights with nothing to lose
Now every move got something to prove
Everybody watching, I watch ’em too
Funny what a little attention can do
New faces calling me family
Old ones barely remember me
I can tell love from convenience now
So I keep what matters in reach
[PRE-CHORUS]
I should probably slow down
But I don’t know how
Every time it gets quiet
My head gets loud
[CHORUS]
Still up, still up
Whole city down but I’m still up
Phone on DND, don’t hit us
Too much on my mind, can’t give up
Still up, still up
Sun coming through and I’m still up
Been chasing something I can’t touch
Maybe I want this shit too much
[VERSE 2]
Four missed calls, I’ll call back later
One from home, three from strangers
Everybody loves you when you’re doing favors
Funny how success turn friends into neighbors
I got everything moving fast
Still catch myself looking back
At the nights when the tank was low
And I had one dream in a beat-up bag
Now the room got a better view
But I barely look out anymore
Got what I prayed for coming through
Still wondering what I’m running toward
I don’t wanna lose what made me
Trying to become what they say I could be
If tomorrow takes everything
At least tonight they remember me
[BRIDGE]
Maybe when the sun comes up
I’ll finally close my eyes
Maybe when I’ve done enough
I’ll stop moving the line
But enough keeps getting further
Every time I get close…
So I’m still—
[FINAL CHORUS]
Still up, still up
Whole city down but I’m still up
Phone on DND, don’t hit us
Too much on my mind, can’t give up
Still up, still up
Sun coming through and I’m still up
Been chasing something I can’t touch
Maybe I want this shit too much
[OUTRO]
Six in the morning
Curtains still open
Sun coming in…
And I’m still up.
