Xmas Eve

Central Cee

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Done a lot of bad things for the P's, I was in desperate need
Driver go get that re, me and my team work collectively
I’m on the A40 tryna act lidge, when I hit the backroad, I'll pick up the speed
The trap phone jump two, three, and I'm on two fours like Christmas Eve

[Verse 1]
I get up and grind, you get up, get high
You wake and bake, I’m awake and working
The mandem locked, I'm burning
Put your hands on the Glock, keep turning
Clean up the street, detergent
Cee on repeat, I'm too determined
Bando need refurbishing, I'm using bedsheets as curtains
Two days, I ain't brushed my teeth but I don't give a fuck 'cause I flushed that re
Is it just me or do they rap just like me?
My lil' bronem see me with P, on G and now they wan’ trap like me
Try talk bad on YG, my G and I won’t take that lightly

[Chorus]
Done a lot of bad things for the P's, I was in desperate need
Driver go get that re, me and my team work collectively
I’m on the A40 tryna act lidge, when I hit the backroad, I'll pick up the speed
The trap phone jump two, three, and I'm on two fours like Christmas Eve

[Verse 2]
You're chattin’ 'bout man like a bitch, I don't like that shit, that's the sign of a snitch
I'm tired of this, soon retire my mumzy and then go reside in the sticks
Can't even invite that bitch cah they wanna know where I live
My people hating, fans love me and they don't even know the kid
You're way too emotional, this is business so I'm emotionless
I kept it real and I showed him love, never done in the plug like Sosa did
Why they moving provocative on the 'net? In the flesh, they're the opposite
Me and YB's on a similar ting, eating off minimal risk
[Chorus]
Done a lot of bad things for the P's, I was in desperate need
Driver go get that re, me and my team work collectively
I'm on the A40 tryna act lidge, when I hit the backroad, I'll pick up the speed
The trap phone jump two, three, and I'm on two fours like Christmas Eve

[Outro]
Done a lot of bad things for the P's, I was in desperate need
Driver go get that re, me and my team work collectively
I'm on the A40 tryna act lidge, when I hit the backroad, I'll pick up the speed
The trap phone jump two, three, and I'm on two fours like Christmas EveEmbed
