[Verse 1]
I just can't live anymore like this
My heart just opened up the door again
Just watch me fly as I spread my wings
Don't ask me why 'cause there are too many things

[Chorus]
And now we're standing on the edge
Looking like here we go again
I used to be your man
But today, I woke up as your friend
As your friend, as your friend, as your friend
I woke up as your friend
As your friend, as your friend
I woke up as your friend

[Verse 2]
Oh, lil' ma-mama, I can feel your fire
You're poisonous, lady, let me take you higher
And I don't care if it's a bad time
Just label me the bad guy tonight

[Chorus]
And now we're standing on the edge
Looking like here we go again
I used to be your man
But today, I woke up as your friend

[Verse 3]
I came to party hoping that you would fall in love
I don't mean to put no pressure on you
Everybody loves a molly and the DJ, he's getting drunk
Trying to get next to you

[Chorus]
And now we're standing on the edge
Looking like here we go again
I used to be your man
But today, I woke up as your friend
As your friend, as your friend, as your friend
I woke up as your friend
As your friend, as your friend
I woke up, I woke up as your friend
As your friend, as your friend, as your friend
As your friend, as your friend, as your friend
I woke up as your friend

[Post-Chorus]
I'ma take that faster
I'ma take that faster
I'ma take that faster

[Chorus]
Now we're standing on the edge
Looking like here we go again
I used to be your man
But today, I woke up as your friend

[Outro]
I'ma take that faster
I'ma take that faster
I-I-I'ma take that faster

Dutch producer and DJ known for his collaborations with the likes of Chris Brown, French Montana, and David Guetta, Afrojack (born Nick van de Wall) has a spot in DJ Mag’s Top 10 DJs since 2010, when he released his first hit “Take Over Control” with Dutch singer Eva Simmons.

In 2007, he founded his own label, “Wall Recordings”, as a subdivision of Spinnin' Records, in a partnership that went on until 2016, when Wall split from Spinnin'. Once known for his electro, dirty-dutch style, Afrojack moved on to become one of the hottest mainstream and pop DJs of the decade, by releasing worldwide hits such as “Look at me Now”, with Chris Brown, and “Hey Mama”, with Nick Minaj, Bebe Rexha and David Guetta.

When far from the flashes and spotlights of the pop world, he occasionally releases under his moniker NLW, and highlights his electro roots when collaborating with other DJs like Hardwell, Martin Garrix and DubVision. His debut album, “Forget the World”, released in 2014, shows the versatility of his production skills, with calm tracks like “Mexico” and festival contenders like “Ten Feet Tall” and “Dynamite”.
