[Pre-Chorus]
Love it when you wake up
All natural, no makeup
My smile's making you fake blush
You know where that could take us, uh
Love it when you slide next to me and say
"How was your day, love?"
Girl, why you gotta say stuff?
God gave you that great touch
[Chorus]
I'm loving the headwrap that you're rockin' girl
Regal when you walking, girl
No one could tell you nothing, girl
Not just here but across the world
Headwrap that you're rockin' girl
Regal when you walking, girl
No one could tell you nothing, girl
Not just here but across the world and you
[Verse 1]
Told me that you hate it when they come up to you and try to touch you
Or maybe they ask you a question like
"How'd you get that around your head?"
You just kinda smile and say
"This is easy, it's counting down to ten."
But in your mind you're thinking, "Man, oh man"
Yeah, headwrap diaries, baby girl why you eyeing me?
Got a brother rapping about wraps, no apologies
Can't take off prology, girl you're no anomaly
Aunties were wearing it long before the colonies
Passed on to you, and now your wraps on the view
Different colors, hair braided, underneath all for who?
I'm tryna leave the crib before 3 like you knew
"Comfort before everything," you scream out the room
But I love it, I ain't bothered, I'm patient
Girl take your time, I'm waiting
Get your headwrap on my lady
You gon' teach those skills to my baby
[Pre-Chorus]
Love it when you wake up
All natural, no makeup
My smile's making you fake blush
You know where that could take us, uh
Love it when you slide next to me and say
"How was your day, love?" (How was your day, love?)
Girl, why you gotta say stuff?
God gave you that great touch
[Chorus]
I'm loving the headwrap that you're rockin' girl
Regal when you walking, girl
No one could tell you nothing, girl
Not just here but across the world
Headwrap that you're rockin' girl
Regal when you walking, girl
No one could tell you nothing, girl
Not just here but across the world and you
[Verse 2]
"Wear it with pride," as the lotto goes
From your mama though, that's how you now, prob
Got me feeling like I can't wait to get you out of those
Young lady look at how you make me, guess you're on a row
Oh, who parked it? Who got the clothes in designer flow?
You, you got the glow from a long time ago
Bought it from the market, now you wear it like an artist
But like everything we own, the gentrify and recharge it
Remember when they laughed at the headwraps that you wear?
Now they wanna know, but you gotta tell 'em it's rare
Trade secrets, they cannot be given out for some air
They paying, tell 'em triple the price, that's for my [?]
I don't care, let the speakers hear, "No"
And no small games if you need to reload
My baby girl got the headwrap on
By the time that its morning, have the headwrap gone
[Pre-Chorus]
Love it when you wake up (Mm)
All natural, no makeup (Mm)
My smile's making you fake blush (Mm)
You know where that could take us, uh
Love it when you slide next to me and say
"How was your day, love?" (How was your day, love?)
Girl, why you gotta say stuff?
God gave you that great touch
[Chorus]
I'm loving the headwrap that you're rockin' girl
Regal when you walking, girl
No one could tell you nothing, girl
Not just here but across the world
Headwrap that you're rockin' girl
Regal when you walking, girl
No one could tell you nothing, girl
Not just here but across the world and you
