I'm a Machine
David Guetta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got a feeling that you bout to get it
Cuz baby I'm killing this dress, boy get with it
Tonight I ain't playing no more
Boy I'm staying over
If you're ready babe, let me know
But don't you wrap me up babe if you ain't ready to go
Don't be ticking on my bomb if you ain't bout to blow
So let's go
[Chorus:]
Cuz I'm a machine baby
And you got the keys baby
I'm a machine baby
And I'm unstoppable [2x]
I want your body baby
I want your body baby
I wanna tear it apart and rebuild it baby [2x]
[Verse 2:]
I'm like an engine baby boy I'm running
And you got a target on your body I'm gunning
Cuz I got a weapon right here
Ain't no guessing round here
Cuz I'm leathal baby, oh
So don't you touch me right there if you ain't ready to rock
Boy I'm counting on you to hold me like a hands on a clock
Want you loving me harder than this beat, make it rock
So let's go
[Chorus:]
Cuz I'm a machine baby
And you got the keys baby
I'm a machine baby
And I'm unstoppable [2x]
I want your body baby
I want your body baby
I wanna tear it apart and rebuild it baby [4x]
[Chorus:]
Cuz I'm a machine baby
And you got the keys baby
I'm a machine baby
And I'm unstoppable
And I'll take you where you wanna go
In this song, Crystal Nicole is portraying herself as a machine that keeps running without stopping, implying that she is unstoppable. She feels like a powerful machine and wants her lover to unlock her potential. In the first verse, she expresses her urge to take things to the next level with her lover by staying over for the night. She wants to know if he's ready to take that step but cautions him not to waste her time if he is not ready. She uses the metaphor of a ticking bomb waiting to explode to describe her sexual energy, urging her lover not to tick her if he can't handle the blast.
In the second verse, she describes herself as an engine running towards her lover, ready to take their relationship to a new level. She talks about having a "weapon" but makes it clear that there's no guessing around her because she is lethal. She urges her lover to be gentle with her, to love her harder than the beat and make it all rock. The overall message of the song seems to be that Crystal Nicole is ready to take charge of the situation, and she wants her lover to join her in powering up their relationship.

WHY 👏🏻 IS 👏🏻 THIS 👏🏻 NOT 👏🏻 ON 👏🏻 SPOOFY 👏🏻
@TheSilverphoenix88
My thoughts exactly
@CastellaTV
as far as i understand. the intro and main bassline is too similair to Swedish house mafia - One. So the label couldn't get the right to put it out since it would be striked as copyright. Not sure if it is true. But knowing the music industry i wouldn't be surprised.
