A Black Girl and her braids
A Black Girl and her braids
Can't tell her nothin'
Please don't touch it
You know she looks amaze
A Black Girl and her braids
A Black Girl and her braids
Protective style for a while
It's one that always slays
A Black Girl and her braids be the best
When you see her with the fresh extensions
Know that she is blessed
No stress
From having to do her hair when she wake up
Can just throw on some makeup and go
Or no
Bare face and braids is a look too honey
Have her feeling so free even though that style
Prolly set her back some money
But it's a sound investment
Cuz a Black Girl and braids goes best wit'
Everything
Doorknockers and red lips
Everything
Sundress with full hips
Everything
Slaying the red carpet
Everything
But sometimes they give us grief
Say we can't rock braids and write a legal brief
Maybe we can be the executive assistant
But with braids we could never be chief
Cuz for some reason they feel braids can't be corporate
Rather see me forfeit my time to twist my hair every night
Or straighten my coils for Karen
Cuz the kinkiness in my cubicle
To her just don't sit right
If I adjust my crown to look more White
That will relax her
That's why we must pass the Crown Act everywhere
Cuz we can reign with cornrows or a relaxer
I want my hair in a box not me
A Black girl and her braids be the definition of free
At night she can just go lay down like her baby hairs
Ain't got to worry 'bout nothin' else
Cuz a Black woman's got enough cares
Braids are not superficial they're beneficial
And we don't need no White girl on TikTok
To validate our flyness cuz we been official
Whether you go to the Africans or Keisha in 5B
If she know what she doin'
It's gon' be tight
Just make sure she don't grip too strong
Cuz if she do it's gon' be tight
And that's the type of Black on Black
Crime our community cannot withstand
We've lost too many edges from the weight of a heavy hand
But sometimes our sistas are willing to just pay that price
Cuz that fresh out the chair crispness be feeling too nice
Feel like Christmas cuz these braids be a gift
Make you swing them back and forth like you turned into a gif
You say you wanna protect Black women
Well braids be a protective style no cap
You wanna give her joy
Well then scratch in between her parts with a pen cap
Ooooo that joint be bliss
Feels as good as when I step out the shop with a fresh set of knotless
Or goddess
Or maybe just some straightbacks for vacation
We gon' get it braided up for any occasion
Rooted in Africa it's a style that never fades
Ain't nothin in this world like a Black Girl and her braids
