jakob leichtman - 3am in trujillo lyrics

intro:
i’ma tell you something man, i’m 23 years old and i feel like i’m on the top of the world right now and it’s very rare that i feel small around anybody, um especially you know, a woman that i like

verse 1:
i love traveling but used to be scared of it
used to be undeclared, at least in london
but then went to trujillo, international affairs
their lives aren’t fair so why should i care?
i’ll tell why cuz i’m that guy, shouldn’t be alive
poisoned water at the orphanage, almost forfeited
now left with a constant remainder on my neck
when i get out of line, scar keeps me in check
it’s for the best, i’ll be the best, 3rd mixtape on deck
me you won’t forget, with peru i’ll do the same
when i first arrived, didn’t know no one’s names
mainly cuz i just arrived, goal was just do my time
first two weeks had nightmares, kept me up at night
3am every night, just more rhymes to write
that’s this whole project, tracks from trujillo
didn’t like what i saw in me, changed myself own remote

chorus (2x):
carlos valderrama, 3am at night
rooftop of the volunteer house, that’s where i’d write
all these songs all these rhymes, get them out my mind
felt like the most honest way to remember my time

verse 2:
you can go where i’ve been but you won’t see the same things
you can do what i’ve done but you won’t feel the same things
every time i’ve traveled something in me always changes
answers to difficult questions always get explained
discovering new outlets to alleviate this pain
while the friendships and memories always remain
discovered it was me all along because of my amigos
not adios, it’s an hasta luego
trujillo, madison, now off to sarajevo
next co-op i’m trying to work in rome for nato
but i go ways to go, right now focused on me
feelings are haunting, these pills that i’m poppin’
you want to want me, i just want to feel wanted
man i keep falling, baby will you just call me
i just need to hear your voice one last time
be the man that you deserve, i swear on my life

chorus:
carlos valderrama 3am at night
rooftop of the volunteer house, that’s where i’d write
all these songs all these rhymes, get them out my mind
felt like the most honest way to remember my time

verse 3:
on that rooftop, i wrote this whole tape
views from the 3, influenced by the landscape
experiences, work, and all my new friends
didn’t want it to end now i won’t see them again
they’re just so special, no they are essential
even helped me reach my full f-cking potential
thought that the 4 months would last forever
now i don’t sleep at night cuz i’m reading their letters
more than a pleasure cuz they made me better
as an teacher but more importantly as a person
now my own leader, making rap my purpose
helped conquer my fears and make me less nervous
3am in trujillo now 4am in london
grateful for everything since i started from nothing
you can’t slow me down i’m chasing my dream and
you don’t know me now, i just keep on rising
where are you going, i cannot stop crying
i’ll never stop trying or never stop showing
how i am surviving after almost dying
thank you for being the one i confide in
