Rooted

Better than rooted now
Mi seeds, we did now
Mi rooted in the melanin

Young girl, stay rooted
I done plant my seeds, now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
ATL bred, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted

All my songs come with melanin
Got the heart, got the soul like Harriet
A queen since she born, that was evident
That's evidence, of black excellence
I can tell a good dog when I'm pettin' 'em
Know that if I have his tribe, he protectin' 'em
Mother of a child and God, I invest in 'em
Nutritionin', brown milkin' 'em (Brown milkin' 'em)

Young Rosa, young Luther, keep marchin' (Yeah, yeah)
Flood gates comin' open, don't stop 'em
I know that life, it ain't easy (Oh-oh, oh)
Your life, it matters, believe me (Oh-oh, oh)
Rule out the fakes and the frauds
It's hiding behind a facade

Young girl, stay rooted
I done plant my seeds, now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
Can't pull the hood out me, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted
I done plant my seeds now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
ATL bred, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted

All my rules stay embedded in
Hard work, let 'em know, ain't no trainin' in
Poppin' off on the charts, that's a better win
Than poppin' off in the streets, ain't no checkin' it
I can tell a good dog when I'm pettin' 'em
Know that if I have his tribe, he protectin' 'em
Mother of a child and God, I invest in 'em
Nutritionin', brown milkin' 'em (Brown milkin' 'em)

Young Rosa, young Luther, keep marchin' (Yeah, yeah)
Flood gates comin' open, don't stop 'em
I know that life it ain't easy (Oh-oh, oh)
Your life, it matters, believe me (Oh-oh, oh)
Rule out the fakes and the frauds
It's hiding behind a facade

Young girl, stay rooted
I done plant my seeds, now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
Can't pull the hood out me, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted
I done plant my seeds, now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
ATL bred, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted

Watch out boy
You think you can pull me up out of my stems
Nah, mi rooted in the soil
Mi rooted in the melanin

Young girl, stay rooted
I done plant my seeds, now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
Can't pull the hood out me, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted
I done plant my seeds, now I'm rooted
Brown skin poppin', I'm rooted
ATL bred, I'm rooted
Rooted, nappy head rooted
