5's on that Lyft

It's a quarter to 3 and I'm leaving the party
More than a little buzz in my system, I might need a coffee
Contemplating if I should stumble home to my apartment
But my vision is shoddy and my legs are getting wobbly
Credits on my phone so I hop in a ride share
First passengers go and shoot me a side glare
Squished in a chair with little awareness
That you make a living driving Lyft for minimal fare
You grinding on that 9 to 5 graveyard shift
While you tryna pay the rent with what you made on tips
GPS the way you be navigating the nonsense
The world crash and burning, you'd escape with a car dent
Dropped off just a couple blocks from my doorstep
Shoot me the receipt when I wake up in the morning
Add a little tip even though I can't afford it
Close my eyes knowing I'm complicit in extorsion

You always stop and take the time
Ask my name, confirm where we drivin
Window with light-up sign, easy to find
You work for Uber, Lyft, Via: all the same ride
Throw some 5's on that Lyft
Catch a ride with the Lyft
Throw some 5s on that Lyft
5 stars for the lyft
Throw some 5s on that Lyft
Rockin vibes in a Lyft
Throw some 5s on that Lyft
There's been 5 like cars, where's my Lyft?

When I need to go to work but didn't set an alarm
Or I'm tryna catch a flight when the airport's too far
Or I'm tryna send my friend safely after the bar
Open the app, on the map, I see your car
Under paid while corporate pockets your surge money
They tell you lease a car on the promise you'll earn something
Gasoline aint cheap, plus you keep the engine runnin
Drop a pin, here you are when the phone summons
Maybe tryna pay your college kid's next term
While your backseat getting filled with strangers' germs
Maybe scrounging extra cash funding for the herb
While you shuttling yuppies to the city from the 'burbs
Call you contractor while exploiting your labor
All the execs makin paper while you're drivin through danger
Whether we stressed in the seat or we way too stoned
Sincere thanks for driving our drunk ass home

You always stop and take the time
Ask my name, confirm where we drivin
Window with light-up sign, easy to find
You work for Uber, Lyft, Via: all the same ride
Throw some 5's on that Lyft
Catch a ride with the Lyft
Throw some 5s on that Lyft
5 stars for the lyft
Throw some 5s on that Lyft
Rockin vibes in a Lyft
Throw some 5s on that Lyft?
There's been like 5 cars, where's my Lyft?
