WRAPPED IN BLACK ZYRO [Intro — Soft Christmas Bells, Deep Spoken Voice] Red ribbons? Nah. Gold wrapping? Too obvious. You know my color. [Deep 808 Bass Drop] [Chorus — Low, Hypnotic Rhythmic Rap] Wrapped in black, black, black, Silver on my wrist, got the winter on my back. Black box, black bow, blacked-out Cadillac, Santa brought the presents— I brought the whole damn stack! Wrapped in black, black, black, Snowflakes falling on a midnight track. No red suit, no green hat, Everything I touch this Christmas Coming wrapped in black! [Verse 1 — Deep, Confident Rap] Black leather gloves with the snow on the seams, Got a pocket full of plans and a head full of dreams. Walking down the avenue, December twenty-five, Got the whole city glowing like the stars came alive. Silver chain shining underneath my winter coat, Got a little Christmas message that I never even wrote. They say money can’t buy happiness, I know that it’s true, But a little extra comfort never hurt nobody too. [Flow Switch — Fast, Sarcastic] Price tag, gift bag, big laugh, jet lag, Black tie, snow sky, midnight, zigzag. Cashmere, chandelier, cold air, no fear, Got a little winter swagger that I carry every year. [Pre-Chorus — Deep, Teasing] You can keep the red and green, Keep the glitter, keep the gold. I got something more expensive— A little confidence you can’t own. [Chorus — Heavy Bass, Layered Ad-Libs] Wrapped in black, black, black, Silver on my wrist, got the winter on my back. Black box, black bow, blacked-out Cadillac, Santa brought the presents— I brought the whole damn stack! Wrapped in black, black, black, Snowflakes falling on a midnight track. No red suit, no green hat, Everything I touch this Christmas Coming wrapped in black! [Verse 2 — Ultra-Fast Technical Rap] I’m a fashionable phenomenon, a wintertime anomaly, A complicated character with questionable economy. Got a habit of extravagance, a talent for extravagance, But I never let a label be the measure of my relevance. [Rapid Multisyllabic Flow] Elegant, intelligent, a little bit irreverent, Every present got a message, every message got a sentiment. Never needed validation from a diamond or a pendant, I can wear a thousand dollars, still remain independent. [Flow Switch — Playful, Aggressive] Black boots, black shades, black cards, black sleighs, No elves, no help, got my own damn ways. Big dreams, cold nights, bright lights, frostbite, Got the whole damn city looking like a Christmas satellite. I don’t need a golden throne, don’t need a velvet crown, I just like the way the winter makes the whole world slow down. Got a gift for everybody who was standing by my side, And a little extra something for the ones who kept me alive. [Breakdown — Music Box, Deep Spoken Voice] They asked me… “What’s your Christmas aesthetic?” [Pause] Expensive. [Silence] And black. [Massive Bass Drop] [Final Chorus — Explosive, Confident] Wrapped in black, black, black, Silver on my wrist, got the winter on my back. Black box, black bow, blacked-out Cadillac, Santa brought the presents— I brought the whole damn stack! Wrapped in black, black, black, Snowflakes falling on a midnight track. No red suit, no green hat, Everything I touch this Christmas Coming wrapped in black! [Outro — Deep, Dry Spoken Voice] Merry Christmas. Dress accordingly. ZYRO. [Single Sleigh Bell — Hard Cut]
