If I climb to the top
Intro
Will you climb with me?
If I sing about what God forbids
Intro
Will you sing with me?
If I had more than a hundred questions
Intro
Would you think with me?
If I still had exactly two glasses
Intro
Will you drink with me?
Chorus 1
Because I, too, am sometimes alone
Because I'm sometimes alone
I, too, am sometimes alone
Verse 1
It's your boy
I'm not introducing myself anymore
Verse 1
I'm what they know in your city and your town
Maybe the most hated, picture that
But the best paid
Verse 1
And I keep running
Everybody can have an opinion
As long as we have number-one hits
I say whatever I want on TV
And your b*tch wants to chill
So I'll borrow her for a bit
Verse 1
This goes beyond a lyric or a little song
I see them fighting for my spot, take a number
I'm well on my way to those zeros
No hate, really, I wish it to you
I managed so my dad doesn't need to stress
A grand, for my brother
’Cause I wanna bless him for a sec
Verse 1
Drugs and bottles but also wise lessons
I've got exactly what your girl wants
Chorus 2
If I climb to the top
Will you climb with me?
If I sing about what God forbids
Chorus 2
Will you sing with me?
If I had more than a hundred questions
Chorus 2
Would you think with me?
If I still had exactly two glasses
Chorus 3
Will you drink with me?
Because I, too, am sometimes alone
Because I'm sometimes alone
I, too, am sometimes alone
I dare to bet
That my last track was a hit
My passport and debit card are all I need
We do festivals and bar mitzvahs
Come check it, you'll say it was lit
For real, you were a hero to me, man
Really though, for real
Now you want money from me, man
Everyone, that he was told by that old man
I say: everyone, if you can trust yourself
I'm not gonna fight with your d*ck
I'm not sending goons at you
I'm sending a whole bunch of lawyers at you
You men know nothing, you wonder about it
Six shows in a day, no sleep at night anymore
Let my money talk to you
About the questions you had
I'm proud of my name
And the days in my city
Throw the letters at your b*tch
Till the last one's in my pocket
Where would I be if my dad wasn't there?
If I climb to the top
Will you climb with me?
If I sing about what God forbids
Will you sing with me?
If I had more than a hundred questions
Would you think with me?
If I still had exactly two glasses
Will you drink with me?
Because I, too, am sometimes alone
Because I, too, am sometimes alone
I'm sometimes alone
I, too, am sometimes alone
I, too, am sometimes alone

SONG MEANING

Alleen means Alone, and Lil Kleine turns that single word into a roller-coaster confession. Over swaggering verses he flaunts his chart-topping success, designer lifestyle, and fearless attitude, yet every triumphant boast is interrupted by the same pleading question: “Als ik … doe, doe jij met mij mee?” In English: “If I climb, sing, wonder, or drink… will you join me?” The Dutch rapper is testing the loyalty of friends, fans, and lovers, searching for someone who will ride the highs and stick around for the lows.

Behind the bravado sits a surprisingly vulnerable message. Fame brings money, parties, and critics, but it also makes trust rare and nights lonely. When Lil Kleine admits “Ook ik ben soms alleen” – “I’m sometimes alone too” – he reminds us that success does not cancel basic human needs for companionship and understanding. The track is both a victory lap and a cry for real connection, making “Alleen” an anthem about how even the loudest celebrations can echo with loneliness if no one truly has your back.
