Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sit down between the legs of your mother, your sister, your auntie
Remember the scent of grease
Oil sliding down your scalp
In a room of small talk
That's how you learned your womanhood
[Verse 2]
Between the knees of a woman who massaged love into your roots
Who took worthiness and hid it in your braids
So you would always keep your head up
[Verse 3]
How they grow us
How they are us
How their love doesn't ever leave… us
[Verse 4]
How they show us
How they are us
Help us begin our own legacy
Get our own legacy
[Verse 5]
They taught you hair care was self care
That you are worth an evening
Where you do nothing but talk with your hair
To think deply and deep condition
To honor the sacred exchange
A ceremony of our curls
They taught you to live in your truth
So you could always keep your head up
[Verse 6]
How they grow us
How they are us
How their love doesn't ever leave… us
[Verse 7]
How they show us
How they are us
Help us begin our own legacy
