Bottle beside me, chair still empty Christmas lights dey flash for my street But inside me everywhere still dim We used to count days, count blessings Now I dey count shots just to sleep We swear say we go blow together Late nights, no sleep, big dreams, no fear You say bro, one day mama go smile Now I dey pour drinks 'cause you no dey here I dress pain with laughter Tell the world say I'm okay But every night when noise die down Na bottle dey hear wetin I no fit say We said we'd be rich by December Buy mama house, change her life forever Now December come without you Only thing rich is this pain I carry Alcohol don be my best friend He no judge me, he no ask why Every time I sip my sorrow I dey feel you small inside We talk money till sunrise Promise say struggle no go last Now I dey toast to empty chairs And laugh for things we never had Your name still dey my notes Next to goals we never reach I drunk-text heaven every night Still no reply, just receipt Mama ask me why I distant Why my eyes always red How I go tell her say the dream Die the same night you left? Church bell dey ring for my area But my faith dey tipsy too I dey pray with shaking hands Half sober, half missing you We said we'd be rich by December Now December just dey remind me of loss Mama proud, yeah, I try But the journey cost more than it cost Alcohol don be my best friend He dey stay when everybody go If pain be language I understand Na liquor dey speak am fluent If success mean losing you Then I no sure say I want am 'Cause every win feel empty When the person we planned am with no dey stand I still save your contact Like miracle fit ring my phone Merry Christmas, we made it But na voicemail dey answer tone We said we'd be rich by December Now December just bury our plans Snow fall for my heart like ash No fire, just broken man Alcohol don be my best friend Till I forget how to feel This Christmas I'm not celebrating I'm just learning how to heal Silent night, broken soul Two dreamers turned to one ghost If heaven get calendar Tell you we made it, I just wish you saw it
