6AM
Melanie Fiona Lyrics

Girl why you mad (why you mad)
I know (know) exactly what time it is

You ain’t gotta tell me (you ain’t gotta tell me)
So what’s up with the yelling (what’s up with the yelling)
Shorty I was up in the club (club) really turned up (up)
Chillin just minding my biz
I wasn’t doing nothing wrong (wasn’t doing nothing wrong)
Girl you know that I was coming home

I’m just saying
It feels like forever you been gone
Where did you go (where did you go)
And how do I know (I know)
It ain’t a lie (ain’t a lie)
Cause it seems like it never takes this long
For you to come back
Boy tell me where your phone is
You a grown man

It’s six in the morning
Conversation got boring
And I been waiting up for him
Six in the morning
Why did my lover not answer
I was somewhere with a dancer
It’s six in the morning
Oochy wally wally you been at a party
Getting all kinds of naughty
It’s six in the morning
Too many lies, not enough time
Four and five, six in the morning
It’s 6am, It’s 6am, It’s 6am, It’s 6am

It’s way too early (too early), calm down (down)
You ain’t gotta jump in my face
I’m bout to go to sleep (I’m bout to go to sleep)
Holla at me round three (holla at me round three)
(Girl, Girl) Girl I been drinking
And I can’t even make up a lie right now
With you in my ear (with you in my ear)
Shorty I was just playing (I’m listening)
What are you saying?

Boy who the hell you really think you’re talking to
If only you knew (if only you knew)
What I had planned for you (for you) you woulda been here
Coulda had had my loving
Instead you out there clubbing (that ain’t cool)
And you ain’t even pick up the phone
I’m tired of being all alone

It’s six in the morning
Conversation got boring
And I been waiting up for him
Six in the morning
Why did my lover not answer
I was somewhere with a dancer
It’s six in the morning
Oochy wally wally you been at a party
Getting all kinds of naughty
It’s six in the morning
Too many lies, not even time
Four and five, six in the morning
It’s 6am, It’s 6am, It’s 6am, It’s 6am

What your ass doing up anyway, anyway
Fuck that I was sitting here worried about you
I been on my grind all week (like me)
I was just trying to grab me a drink
You coulda picked up the phone
And let your girl know
Cause love shoulda brought ya home

It’s six in the morning
Conversation got boring
And I been waiting up for him
Six in the morning
Why did my lover not answer
I was somewhere with a dancer
It’s six in the morning
Oochy wally wally you been at a party
Getting all kinds of naughty
It’s six in the morning
Too many lies, not even time
Four and five, six in the morning
It’s 6am, It’s 6am, It’s 6am, It’s 6am

She was born to Guyanese immigrant parents (mixed with black, Indian, and Portuguese ethnicities) and grew up in the inner city of Toronto. Living in a music filled household, Fiona says she always knew music was her passion. Her father was a guitarist in a band and would allow her to sit on the stage when she was younger as he practiced, and remembers her mother playing music at home; everything from The Ronettes to Whitney Houston.

Fiona was featured on Reggae Gold 2008 with the Supa Dups-produced "Somebody Come Get Me". Her debut album The Bridge was released in the summer of 2009. She worked on the album with Future Cut, Vada Nobles, Stereotypes, J. Phoenix, Peter Wade and Salaam Remi. The debut single "Give It to Me Right" was released to radio stations on February 28, 2009, and peaked at #20 on Billboard's Canadian Hot 100 and #41 on the UK Singles Chart. The second single, "It Kills Me", became her breakout song on the Billboard Hot 100 where it cracked the Top 50, along with hitting #1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The song earned Fiona a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance.

Her second album, The MF Life, was released through the SRC Records and Universal Republic on March 20, 2012 after several delays. The Break Down The Walls Songfacts reports Fiona told Billboard magazine that her goal with The MF Life was to give an "honest" depiction of her life and how things have changed from her debut set, The Bridge.

In 2002, Fiona was briefly involved with girl group X-Quisite. Early in her career, she would perform at nightclubs in Toronto. In 2005, Fiona traveled to Los Angeles, California, in search of a recording contract. According to Fiona, record labels "loved" the way she looked and sung, but "knew that the minute I worked with them or would have signed with them, they would have tried to change me into someone else completely different. That was something that I didn't want to do." She went on to co-write songs for recording artists Rihanna and Kardinal Offishall. Fiona also recorded the reggae song "Somebody Come Get Me" under the stage name Syren Hall, which was included in the Reggae Gold 2008 compilation album. Entrepreneur Steve Rifkind discovered and signed Fiona to SRC Records and Universal Motown in 2007. She went on to tour with Kanye West in his Glow in the Dark Tour.
