Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Two A.M. Again and I'm thinkin' 'bout
Two A.M. Again and I'm thinkin', should I come through?
Can I come kick
Can I come kick with you?
Two A.M. Again and I'm thinkin' 'bout
It's two A.M. And I'm stuck up thinkin' about the
Last time you were behind me, all in the mirror
I could see everything you would be doin'
I could see everything, lookin' at me like you love me
I know you don't love me
I never care long as I come first, you come on time
I reverse, you rewind, do it again
Stuck in time, do it again

All you ever say is, "Come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, yeah
You don't ever come, why you never come?
Will you ever come?
Come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
Why you never come to me, no?
Why you never come to me?
Why you never come to me, no?"

This my time, it's your turn
I know you're right
I know it burns to be in love
I know it burns to be another
One of your girls on the side like that
I know your kind, how you lie like that
I know you're mine when you bite it like that
I know you're mine when you put it like that
Guess you was right when you put it like that
I know now
I get the point, I hear you loud and clear
All this time I've been playin' your side
I could have done better shit with my life
To waste no time on you
Got to move on 'cause you got me fucked up
I am confused from this point on trust nobody, yeah
Out of my body, blowin' my fuse out
Devil, please cut me loose, yeah
Please cut me loose, oh

Come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, yeah
You don't ever come, why you never come?
Will you ever come?
Come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
Why you never come to me, no?
Why you never come to me?
Why you never come to me, no?

Wait, wait, wait, wait
Wait, wait, wait
For you, you, you, you
You, you
Never, never too late, late, late, late
Late, late, late
Fall through, through, through, through
It's two A.M., it's two A.M. And I'm on
You, you, you (thinkin' 'bout you)
You, you again, you again (never knew a nigga)
It's two A.M. And I'm pressed (I want bad as I want you, baby)
Yes, I want you (bad as I want you, bad as I want you)
It's two A.M., it's two A.M. Again

I might be thirsty for you
How can you blame?
Oh, I might be thirsty for you
How can you blame?
Oh, I might place a curse for you
How do you want me?
I conjure up the coochie for you
Voodoo, Houdini
And I might be that hoochie for you
Do you need me?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to SZA's song "2AM" depict a complex and emotionally charged relationship. The song explores the thoughts and feelings of the singer during a late night contemplation. The repetition of "Two A.M. again and I'm thinking 'bout" suggests that this is a recurring late-night reflection, possibly during moments of solitude or restlessness.


The singer questions whether she should reach out to the person she's thinking about, asking if she can come and kick it with them. There is a sense of yearning and desire for connection. However, there is also an acknowledgement that this person doesn't truly love her, and that she is aware of their intentions.


The lyrics continue to express the singer's frustration and confusion regarding this relationship. The other person seems to only want her to come to them, never making the effort to come to her. The repetition of "come and see me for once" emphasizes this imbalance and lack of reciprocity. There is an underlying sadness and disappointment in the realization that this person will never come to her.


As the song progresses, the singer begins to question her own role in this relationship. She recognizes that she has been playing second fiddle, wasting her time and potential on someone who doesn't deserve her. She decides to move on, acknowledging that she can't trust anyone and feeling the need to detach herself from toxic influences.


The lyrics of "2AM" convey a mix of vulnerability, frustration, and self-assertion. It reflects the dynamics of a one-sided relationship and the singer's journey towards self-preservation and growth.
