[Intro]
Make it home
Make it home
Make it home
I hope you make it home
Make it home
Make it home
Make it home
[Chorus]
Hey look, I pray you catch a wave
That doesn't subside
This for the nappy heads in Heaven
With a nappy-head Christ by their side
I pray you catch a wave
That doesn't subside
This for the nappy heads in Heaven
With a nappy-head Christ by their side
[Post-Chorus]
May your streets be paved with gold
Hope my whole hood make it home, oh
May your streets bе paved with gold
Hope my whole hood makе it home
[Verse 1]
'Cause the world can be toxic (Ooh, ooh)
Especially when your skin looked like chocolate
At one point they sold us for profit (Ooh)
But we made it out of the gauntlet, we chosen (Yeah)
On my mama, the south side still holding
Go for broke, for the ones that are broken (Broken)
Please don't make me no hashtag or slogan
My whole hood is golden
[Chorus]
That's why I pray you catch a wave (Yeah)
That doesn't subside (Mm-mm-mm)
This for the nappy heads in Heaven
With a nappy-head Christ by their side
I pray you catch a wave
That doesn't subside (Mm-mm-mm)
For the nappy heads in Heaven
Christ by their side (Ooh)
[Post-Chorus]
May your streets be paved with gold (Paved with gold)
Hope my whole hood make it home (Make it home)
May your streets be paved with gold (Streets be paved with gold)
Hope my whole hood make it home, mm
[Verse 2]
'Cause they riding with choppas (Ooh)
And might turn you taper to pasta (Ooh)
Don't hardly see daughters at altars (Ooh)
Probably 'cause there ain't no more fathers, they stole them (Ooh)
Put in cages by racists patrolling (Yeah, yeah)
The hood is a lane to the pens like we bowling
Please don't make me no hashtags or slogan (Or slogan)
Black people are golden
[Chorus]
That's why I pray you catch a wave (Pray you catch a wave)
That doesn't subside (Mm-mm-mm)
This for the nappy heads in Heaven
With a nappy-head Christ by their side
I pray you catch a wave (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
That doesn't subside
This for the nappy heads in Heaven
With a nappy-head Christ by their side
[Post-Chorus]
May your streets be paved with gold (Paved with gold)
Hope my whole hood make it home (Make it home)
May your streets be paved with gold (Paved with gold)
Hope my whole hood make it home
