Cabelo Crespo
Aka Rasta
Curly Hair
They recognize me from afar
Because they see the blonde dreads
They know it's unmistakable
And in my hair there's a lot of history
Personality, and attitude
It's incredible (it's incredible)
What clothes I'm wearing doesn't matter
Because my hair always puts me above the level
Wherever I go, I leave my mark
Like a scar
I walk unforgettable
My hairstyle goes beyond appearance
Represents my culture
Resistance (resistance)
Haile Selassie made me proud of who I am
I won't diminish myself
For sure
(No)
They always want to steal everything that's ours
But they will never succeed in stealing our essence
(They won't)
Curly hair, black power, braid, dread
Black is beautiful
It's a beauty
Since they don't want to give me a job
Because of my hair
I open my own company
I only hire black people to work
And I guarantee it will be an example of efficiency
(It will be)
I no longer accept this nonsense
Honestly, our patience is over
(It's over)
So many years living in the shadow of oppression
But now the predator will become prey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
(Stop, stop, stop, stop)
Comedy, look at this mouth
It's not bad hair
It's curly hair
How bad is it
If you pass a fork through the afro once
And it looks perfect?
So beautiful, natural
You don't even need to spend a fortune on treatment
They don't envy the weak
That's why they want my qualities to become defects
My curly hair, so beautiful it is
My black skin, so beautiful it is
I carry attitude, from head to toe
I come from Wakanda, son of Africa
My curly hair, so beautiful it is
My black skin, so beautiful it is
I carry attitude, from head to toe
I come from Wakanda, son of Africa
I left my blonde dread to bring more gold
I always want more, I'm like a miner
My mine is my studio, it's my microphone
I'm living in a mine, but I'm not a miner
I'm not living in Manaus, but I'm cool
A lot of style in my clothes and in my hair
There's no point in joining the dance and not having rhythm
There's no point in dressing in black and not being black
(It's no use)
The girls like my black skin
And they also like my swagger
You never touch my hairstyle (never)
Some hate me, the girls like me
My curly hair, so beautiful it is
My black skin, so beautiful it is
I carry attitude, from head to toe
I come from Wakanda, son of Africa
My curly hair, so beautiful it is
My black skin, so beautiful it is
I carry attitude, from head to toe
I come from Wakanda, son of Africa
Wakanda forever!
