Lil Tjay
Christmas in a Cell
[Chorus]
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Many nights from comin' home
Remember sittin' in that cell alone, alone
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Remember bein' locked down on Christmas
Remember bein' in that cell
I was prayin' someone save me, Lord wished me well

[Verse 1]
Everybody gangster, kinda, sorta seem like nowadays
But I ain't beefin' over nothin' 'less it's power plays
I'm on a mission, tryna focus, 'least amount the day
Gotta run, shit, been workin' out, I burned some calorie
I could be sittin' in that cell for when they caught me
Plus somebody got that lawsuit, I know they salty
I'm well aware the money saved me
Boys tryna pin a n***a fugazi
Whatever condition, no, I ain't never call shots
'Cause I try to be the helpin' hand to all of my guys
They lot just be killin' my vibe, why would I lie?
Diamonds, I'ma keep it real 'til I die
Never had nothin' for Christmas
Locked down, I had to handle my business
Goin' through some shit I can't describe
Memories inside, my mind adjustin' to the time
When you in that jam you gon' see a lot of n***a slime
Some might do you slime, but that shit don't go for none of mine
Family loyalty is hard where we come from
If you don't got that, you gon' fall where you come from
But n***as ain't like that, that's why I say less
Snakes in the grass and they tryin' they best
It's a cold-cold world, so you better not underdress
So when life throw jabs, I was taught fight 'til you stretched
Only way you progress
[Chorus]
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Many nights from comin' home
Remember sittin' in that cell alone, alone
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Remember bein' locked down on Christmas
Remember bein' in that cell
I was prayin' someone save me, Lord wished me well

[Verse 2]
I remember bein' locked down, all alone
I was on my own and nobody wouldn't pick up my phone
My momma told me that she wanna be there, like "You there?"
And please don't call my phone until you leave there
No answer on the tone, standin' all alone
That's why I felt abandoned, shit, I had to re-share
Free the guys, thinkin' bout it, this is so wack
Judge sentenced you and then he get to go back
To his home, he chillin' on Christmas
He done sent a thousand families distant
I done got some real family missin'
Father I just wished shit can be different
If you ever felt abandoned, you isn't
Tough blood, I'm in here sippin' lean, lean, lean
Never Christmas, I'ma dream, dream, dream
One more winter with the team, team, team
All my shooters in Celine-line-line
Pockets on green, green, green
How long do we gotta scheme, scheme, scheme?
Mike Amiri for my jeans, jeans, jeans
New life, better things, things, things, uh
[Chorus]
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Many nights from comin' home
Remember sittin' in that cell alone, alone
Free my n***as locked down this Christmas
Remember bein' locked down on Christmas
Remember bein' in that cell
I was prayin' someone save me, Lord wish me well
