Take a trip with me to the beauty supply
I know you can't stand it
Man, I'm cryin', cry
Take a trip with me to the beauty supply
I know you can't stand it
Man, I'm cryin', cry

Fresh out the box, a bundle, two fifty
Rapunzel make pennies, market share plenty
The feminist in me don't bent
I support the black business, no compromise
A lot of self haters, the self love
To braid my hair down and masquerade us
Because I just wanna be the love of my life
Set aside my own standard and really demand hers
Silly and absurd, wearin' an earth cap wig hat
And then preach I love everything black
I know this ain't cap, it's cap
We cap the track, sabotage up my homie back, like

No identity, same enemy, me
When I believe in prettier with my weaves
When I could see the forest behind the trees
I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll be free

Take a trip with me to the beauty supply
I know you can't stand it
Man, I'm cryin', cry
Take a trip with me to the beauty supply
I know you can't stand it
Man, I'm cryin', cry

Love me down by the edge of the river
Pay to god that my edges deliver a good look
Infantile baby hair make the men look
Eurocentric look-book, residential forever
We live in a momentary lapse of judgement
Black and cushion, sleep at the will
We trusted the plantation to drive us home
Hallelujah and out of lots of white bitch
Voile, mark a toupee

Cosplay a new identity, same enemy, me
When I believe in prettier with my weaves
When I could see the forest behind the trees
I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll be free
No identity, same enemy, me
When I believe in prettier with my weaves
When I could see the forest behind the trees
I'll be free, I'll be free, I'll be free

Take a trip with me to the beauty supply
I know you can't stand it
Man, I'm cryin', cry
Take a trip with me to the beauty supply
I know you can't stand it
Man, I'm cryin', cry

Yeah
Take a trip with me
Oh, oh, oh
