Lyrics

3AM

[Verse 1: AJ Tracey]

I vibes in the night time

When you come through, it's looking like the right time

When it's 3AM, I just need a lifeline

Call your phone, baby girl, I got the right mind

I ain't tryna wife b, I'm just tryna live life

I blow money when I get it, so I live nice

She got the cake, I'm just looking for a quick slice

And when the day breaks, I won't even think twice

I need a girl with a waist, I'm a starboy

I could never shine with a waste

No pasa, no pasa

Girl, don't worry about beef, I got my guys in the place

Me and the moon are good friends, see

So I sleep in the day and come alive in the wakes

A peng ting with a vibe's what it takes

I ain't cuffin' no girls, that's a line for the jakes

Girl, let's have a couple light drinks

Nothing heavy, I’m incredible, general, trust man a levy

My money big bro, here little like Debbie

I need a P1 black, not a Chevy

And I'ma drink till the end of the day

My niggas in the block, I'm tryna get 'em all away

I don't care what you done, I don't care what you say

Mi nuh fear next man, get the fuck out of my way

[Chorus: Jae Stephens]

Ooooo, ha

What a man, what a man, what a man you've got to be

Yeah, you talk a lot of noise, I'll believe it when I see

There's a couple other boys, but are you the one I need?

You don't wanna waste my time, that's a guarantee

[Verse 2: AJ Tracey]

A vibin', me whinin', I'm stress free, my dawgs violent

As a youngen, I would duck from the trident

Feds tried to nick me couple times, but I'm silent

Colourful, Gucci, I tag her in my top and it's vibrant

Girl foreign and my car is a migrant

Water on my neck as if I'm playing in the hydrant

Brown skin looking all golden maple

Wifed her Feb, got me March through April

I got my health and I'm grateful

Badman step far from me when I'm hateful

Slide through the darkness, moon on my back

Big batty girl, I'ma spoon up and that

Get my hair twist, sip lemonade casual

I'm a starboy, you can't read it in a manual

[Hook: Jae Stephens]

Ooooo, ha

What a man, what a man, what a man you've got to be

Yeah, you talk a lot of noise, I'll believe it when I see

There's a couple other boys, but are you the one I need?

You don't wanna waste my time, that’s a guarantee

[Verse 3: Jae Stephens]

I know what you need

I know what you want

You just got that something you can't find in everyone

I know what you could be

'Cause I know what you are

People talking about you

They feel power from afar

They can see it in the dark

[Hook: Jae Stephens]

Ooooo, ha

What a man, what a man, what a man you've got to be

Yeah, you talk a lot of noise, I'll believe it when I see

There's a couple other boys, but are you the one I need?

You don't wanna waste my time, that’s a guarantee

    What a US one-hit-wonder label actually tells British listeners

    A single Billboard Hot 100 breakthrough can be a useful fact, but it is a poor shortcut for an artist’s whole career, especially in Britain.
