Yeah

She say that I'm the one she can't get off of her mind
She say that I'm the one that just so harder to find
She say it ain't nobody hit it better than I
Better than I, ooh
I pull up to her spot, she want that late night
And she on them games, but she know it's not no date night
You want me take control, then you gone do all that I say right?
You want me hit it from the late night into the day light
You used ain't give no time to me (Time to me)

The lyrics to A-3's song "Come Thru" depict a situation where the singer is being sought after by a woman who realizes she needs someone like him in her life. The first verse suggests that the woman may have been influenced by something her friend told her about the singer. There is a sense of confidence from the singer, who asserts that nothing about him has changed, except for having a bit more money now. The lines "Now you gotta learn the hard way" emphasize that there will be consequences for not recognizing the singer's worth earlier.
In the second verse, the singer describes the woman's attraction and infatuation with him. She sees him as someone she can't get off her mind, someone hard to find, and believes no one can pleasure her better. The singer then reveals that the woman wants a late-night encounter with him, but clarifies that it is not a romantic date; she desires his dominance and control. The lyrics reflect the singer's awareness that the woman used to pay him no attention, but now she is suddenly interested. He dismissively states that it's too late for love, she is only fine to him, only a fleeting desire.
The third verse describes a shift in the woman's perspective. She criticizes the singer for his behavior, feeling wronged by his actions and his lack of response to her messages. The singer acknowledges that he used to want her, but deems her to have made a mistake. She only saw the less significant parts of him, and now she is left with just a fraction of his attention. Despite this, she still manages to affect him with her attempts to contact him. However, he asserts that he will not let her become his primary focus, preventing any other potential romantic interest from getting the better of him.
Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of empowerment and self-assuredness from the singer, who recognizes his value and refuses to be swayed by someone who did not appreciate him in the past. There is a hint of resentment towards the woman for her sudden change of heart, but ultimately, the singer remains in control of the situation and aims to protect himself from further emotional entanglement.
