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
