Coal – IDK

Quotable Lyrics:
Three-hundred and sixty five a year
From three ’til I was eight
My dream was sittin’ and takin’ a picture
In that chair with a ni**a with white hair

My only fear was was I behavin’? That was my prayer
Go to sleep the 24th, wake up the 25th
Wipe the dust up out my eyes until I see the gifts
Where they from? She said, “Santa”

I said, “How come? I got bad grades, mommy
‘Member thе day you called me dumb?”
With a tear in my еye, gift by the tree
Hopefully the gift dries the tears, yes it did, indeed
Matter fact, a myth made me think a white man was the man

And the credit went to him instead of goin’ to my fam’
As I did a little dance in my blue pajama pants
Momma looked at me and glanced, tryin’ not to laugh hard
I was five years old, and too young to understand
That is a fat white man came down the chimney, it would jam

It was a white Christmas, dark winter lights, Heaven, hearts bitter
If you cannot fill the socks, we don’t want no parts wit’ ya
We don’t want no coal, good deeds is the goal
‘Til the day’s full of snow, melt away and we’re grown

Oh ho, it be like that ’til Christmas goes
And winter says, “I’ll be right back,” okay
We don’t want no coal, good deeds is the goal
‘Til the day’s full of snow, melt away and we’re grown
