Yeah
It’s a cold December
Hood Christmas
Still grindin’
Holly jolly Christmas in the hood tonight
Snow on the block, but my wrist too bright
Silent nights, but the streets still loud
Pray for my fam while I’m movin’ this crowd
Holly jolly Christmas, no mistletoe
Cold hearts round here, yeah, you gotta know
Still wish peace, even when it’s rough
Hoodtrap season, yeah, we built too tough
Red lights flashin’ like a sleigh pass by
Mama prayin’ hard, see it in her eyes
No gifts under trees, just dreams in bags
Cold breath in the air, still chasin’ racks
Used to hear sirens instead of bells
Winter nights where the block felt hell
Now I light up chains like a Christmas star
Came from nothin’, look how frozen we are
Snow fall slow on my pain
Ice on my neck, but it don’t feel the same
They celebrate, I calculate
Another year I made it through the flames
Holly jolly Christmas in the hood tonight
Snow on the block, but my wrist too bright
Silent nights, but the streets still loud
Pray for my fam while I’m movin’ this crowd
Holly jolly Christmas, no mistletoe
Cold hearts round here, yeah, you gotta know
Still wish peace, even when it’s rough
Hoodtrap season, yeah, we built too tough
Santa never came down my chimney
Only cold nights and a heart full of envy
Now I play God with the food and the rent
Make sure my people don’t freeze in the end
Eggnog dreams with a codeine twist
Snow on the ground, not the one we sniff
Real ones eat, fake ones fade
Christmas taught me who really stayed
If I smile now, it’s survival
Every December feel revival
From the gutter to the glow
Holly jolly, but the heart still cold
Holly jolly Christmas in the hood tonight
