About This Track

'Line' by Central Cee is a track from the album '17 ', released in 2016. The lyrics sketch an anxious, direct late-night callout, with a repeated focus on phoning a girl and demanding clarity. Lines centre on whether she is alone or with someone else, and on the uncertainty of whether she is “wasting my time”. The chorus-lurching repetition gives the song a tense, interrogative momentum, like a message that will not let the listener’s mind rest.

"Line" is a track by Central Cee, from the album 17 , released 3rd March 2016. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 13 articles about Central Cee.

Lyrics

Line

[Intro]

(R-R-Real One)

Girl, I hit you on the phone, yeah

Yeah

[Chorus]

Girl, I hit you on the phone, yeah

If you hear the tone, yeah

Are you with him or alone, yeah

Make you bet, you let me know, yeah

Heart's banging on my mind, mind

Are you wasting my time, time?

Are you his or is you mine, mine?

Are you his or is you mine, mine?

I've been dialing your line down

I've been dialing your line down

Tryna get through to you

Tryna get through to you

Tryna get through to you, girl

Through to you, girl

I'm true to you, girl

I'm not new to this, but I'm new to you, girl

[Verse 1]

Dialing your line down

You run your mind now

You comе to my house

I put the lights down

You put the blind down

I'll call you minе now

Mine now, yeah, you're mine now

Let's go say nothing about it

Word on the road, I'm about

Word on the road, I'm in town

You know me, you see I got clout

You don't know my name

You stay in your lane

And this ain't a game

I've been in the way 'fore I rage in the chain

But this ain't a right time, yeah

But you know you're mine, right? yeah

Told my mum I'm on a bike ride, yeah

Really, I've been hustlin' in the day and the nighttime

My guys, know them like day one

White lines, they ain't got skengs, boy

Gyal on my line, they know that I'm peng, gwan

You know that I'm

You know that I'm

You know that I'm

[Verse 2]

Running and cuttin', they see me now

You know that they wanna be me now

The gyal on my ends wanna beat me now

They wanna talk and they see that I'm eating now

Why, why, bye, bye

It's my time, run up and bust up like drive-bys

I know exactly that you want from me and I'll know what I'll give ya

I know that you won't be stressin' when them girls come along for a picture

I got to go for a scripture

Don't let me come and go get ya

Just let me come to your house now

You know that I'll come and dig ya

Down, down, this is my town

Yeah, you was his, but you're mine now

Yeah, you're mine now

I'm dialing your line down

Dialing your line

Dialing your line

Dialing your line

Dialing your line down

[Chorus]

Girl, I hit you on the phone, yeah

If you hear the tone, yeah

Are you with him or alone, yeah

Make you bet, you let me know, yeah

Heart's banging on my mind, mind

Are you wasting my time, time?

Are you his or is you mine, mine?

Are you his or is you mine, mine?

I've been dialing your line down

I've been dialing your line down

Tryna get through to you

Tryna get through to you

Tryna get through to you, girl
