Adrian Marcel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want it girl, right now
I'm turnt up in this bitch
Drunk off that liquor
I can't trust these hoes
But you look so different, girl
You, you got your girls, I got my niggas
Come live in the fast lane
Bottles every night, whatever you like
'Cause I do things
And you know my niggas keep that thing on the side
'Cause a nigga wanna act strange
But this ain't about me, girl it's all about you
And I ain't just running game
I ain't running game
Said it's 2a.m.
I want it girl, I want this girl
I know you're horny, girl
I want it girl, I want it girl
Said it's 2a.m.
I want it girl
Neck frozen, wrist too
They ain't never seen a California igloo
My dude own a magazine for the issue
You better off tryna kick it like jiu-jitsu
It's 2a.m. and I'm tryna get in there
Say X marks the spot but your ex not in here
On my momma, I ain't for the drama
I'm from the Sev, no beef
We just get the commas
Said it's 2a.m.
I want it girl, I want this girl
I know you're horny, girl
I want it girl, I want it girl
Said it's 2a.m.
I want it girl
Let's pull off in this whip
Full speed to my after-hours
Take a couple more sips
Girl, you know I'll be good for hours
You, you say it's real and I can feel lonely
You know the deal, we in the moment
Come live in the fast lane
Bottles every night, whatever you like
'Cause I do things
And you know my niggas keep that thing on the side
'Cause a nigga wanna act strange
But this ain't about me, girl it's all about you
And I ain't just running game
I ain't running game
Said it's 2a.m.
I want it girl, I want this girl
I know you're horny, girl
I want it girl, I want it girl
Said it's 2a.m.
I want it girl
The lyrics to Adrian Marcel's "2AM" are a straightforward, no-frills representation of a late night hookup. The song begins with the singer announcing that it's 2am and he wants the girl he's with right now. He talks about being drunk off liquor and not trusting other women. However, he seems to feel differently about the girl he's with, saying she's different from the others. He suggests that the two groups should merge and "live in the fast lane," drinking bottles whatever they like.
The chorus repeats the opening line, punctuated by the singer expressing his desire for the girl at hand. The next verse includes some name-dropping, with the singer asserting that his neck and wrist are both "frozen," and talking about a friend who "owns a magazine for the issue." He wants to hook up with this girl and assures her that he's not for drama, and they can just "get the commas" (make money). The song ends with the two of them pulling off into the night.
