Are all those "ADHD focus" playlists putting you to sleep as well? What music works for you best?

Everytime I check any playlist branded as "ADHD focus/work/hyperfocus/learn" etc. instead of actually focusing, I am getting sleepy, wandering off without any thoughts, basically I could turn on this music and just go to sleep. I don't understand why could anyone label those as "adhd focusing music".

I am going through life with music. Everything I do, everywhere I go, I need to have headphones (or earbuds). Stroll? Music. Cleaning? Music. Writing, learning, working, everything I do, I do with music. I have to have energetic, fast music, preferably without words, if I have to focus more. Basically any epic video/film/clasical soundtrack will do. I can't function with slow music, like the one they brand with ADHD. I also can't function with silence.

So my question would be, do any of you have the same or perhaps you actually prefer this kind of music? What music works best for you or perhaps it doesn't help focusing at all?
