"Slow Down (Santa)"

Knock down ginger
Used to share a room with my sister
Single beds with the telly
Bend the hanger for a picture
Smiley faces with beans
Hindsight, I'd top it with cheese
Mango before there was cheese
50p flats, '50p please'
I was on the raise like a beggar in the street
No shame, I was tryna get sweets
Way before I ever bought weed
I realised we could get me what I need
Rocket science, and I never had a beach
And I never had P and I never got a piece when they shared it between their friends, man it was mean
Then I turned green, seeing red, bust the head off a TV screen
Now they're dead like all of my dreams
You was GTA, I was stuck in cars CBA
Flying kites with your family, I was in your garden for the Yamaha G
Slime, I ain't got no heart
My demeanours dark, raised round sharks
Your not as big as your bark, when the pit bull's loose watch it tear you apart

[Pre-Chorus:]
Boiler broke on christmas day
Ask Santa, 'Why's my life this way?'
Putting heating on my next wish list
Fuck Santa, cuz we're cold as shit
Boiler broke on christmas day
Ask Santa, 'Why's my life this way?'
Putting heating on my next wish list
Fuck Santa, cuz we're cold as shit

[Chorus:]
Slow down! Whole ounce!
Ask about, there's accounts
No he don't... oh yes he does!
Slow down! Slow down!
Slow down! Whole ounce!
Ask about, there's accounts
No he don't... oh yes he does!
Slow down! Slow down!

They did the mannequin challenge
When the feds come round I ain't standing there with my hands down my trousers unprepared - let me make that clear
Belly like trampoline
Ribs broke when I trampolined out the atmosphere
Feel like I'm in canteen, just wanna eat, why you looking at me weird?
All I hear is voices - shut the fuck up, I can't hear
Always make the wrong choices, but I'm all or nothing - no fear
Mistakes, you're mistaking me for someone else
It weren't me it was someone else
Know me but don't know yourself
'Bout time that you know yourself
