AUGUST 08 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Speeding through traffic
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
Leave yo' friends downstairs tonight
Brown eyes, thick thighs, camera running in the corner
Friends watching like it's televised
Don't wanna leave you waiting, I'm bendin' corners in a Cutlass
We fuckin' like we sayin' goodbye
Ain't a damn thing changed, put the diamonds on the ring
What you doin', girl? Cut out the lights
Now I'm in a Cutlass with my cousins
Head turned 'cause you out here just shinin'
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin'
In the Cutlass with my cousins
Head turned 'cause you out here just shinin'
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin' (uh)
Yeah
Close the door, give shift, watch the horse on the wheel, 911 it
High levels got us way up in the sky
Where we represent, ya kiss can make a devil miss
Said she never made love but she never met me
Double M backed up, plenty room in backseat
Fuckin' up your makeup when I dive in all day
You the one that brings peace
Tell your friends move, lady
Fuck that old shit
The distractions and your exes are some nuisance
Movin' to new shit
Hanging with them peons
Now never, we too lit
The bullshit, we groovin'
Look at your dark skin, nap hair, I love it
Look at your stretch marks, oh, you're still perfect
Mommy can stop time, my God, through music
Lose it, we groovin'
Now I'm in a Cutlass with my cousins
Head turned 'cause you out here just shinin'
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin'
In the Cutlass with my cousins
Head turned 'cause you out here just shinin'
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin'
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
West side, east side
Now I'm in a Cutlass with my cousins
Head turned 'cause you out here just shinin'
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin'
In the Cutlass with my cousins
Head turned 'cause you out here just shinin'
Bust a U-turn in the far lane
Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin'
The song "Cutlass" by AUGUST 08 showcases a carefree and indulgent night spent with a lover. The lyrics depict the singer's excitement and desire to be with their partner, leaving their friends downstairs as they engage in intimate activities. The mention of glossy lips and the camera running in the corner suggests a sense of sensuality and perhaps even exhibitionism. The friends watching as if it's televised further emphasizes the voyeuristic aspect of the situation.
The singer expresses their unwillingness to keep their partner waiting and eagerly drives around in a Cutlass, a type of car, to meet them. The line "We fuckin' like we sayin' goodbye" suggests a passionate encounter, possibly fueled by the intensity of knowing that they may not have another chance.
The second verse adds a sense of rebellion to the narrative. The singer is depicted in a Cutlass with their cousins, drawing attention to their adventurous spirit and disregard for societal norms. The line "Drop the .40 'cause that ass got a nigga wildin'" represents the excitement and lust that the singer experiences when seeing their partner's attractive physique. It implies that their partner's presence alone can lead to a loss of control.
Overall, "Cutlass" narrates a story of unapologetic desire, indulgence, and living in the present moment. It embraces the thrill of breaking free from societal constraints and fully immersing oneself in passion and pleasure.

Movin' to new shit
Transitioning to a fresh and exciting phase
Hanging with them peons
Spending time with insignificant or unimportant people
Now never, we too lit
Now and forever, we are too lively or intoxicated with excitement
The bullshit, we groovin'
We are navigating through the nonsense and enjoying ourselves
Look at your dark skin, nap hair, I love it
Appreciating your beautiful dark skin and natural hair texture
Look at your stretch marks, oh, you're still perfect
Observing your stretch marks and recognizing that you remain flawlessly perfect
Mommy can stop time, my God, through music
You have the ability to halt time, my goodness, using the power of music
Lose it, we groovin'
Let go of your inhibitions, and let's enjoy ourselves together

Fuckin' up your makeup when I dive in all deep
You the one that bring peace, tell your friends, "Move late"
