Haliwa
This that strong kinda love
Hold you down kinda love
Rep my city, raising kiddies, aging pretty
Never drop your crown kinda love
I get it from my mama
And she get it from hers
Passing down the mantle
Put the flame to the candle of them redbone girls
Springing up in the 252
Like a tree that's planted by the water
I know exactly who I am
Because I am my mothers daughter
Yeahhhhh
All day Everyday
Soul tied to my tribe like
Yeahhhhh
All day everyday
Haliwa, Haliwa
Got my city on my back like a cape
No cap
Like a cape
No cap
Like a cape
If it won't for where I'm from
I wouldn't be where I'm at
Wouldn't be where I'm at
Haliwa, Haliwa
Your whole history is because of me
Indigenous and excellent
Carolina makes em a different way
Heart of gold in melanin
That same strong kinda love
Hold you down kinda love
that watch the way you talk to me and mine kinda love
Respect is earned
But with me required
Cause your license to loot all my land expired
Springing up in the 252
Like a tree that's planted by the water
I know exactly who I am
Because I am my mothers daughter
Yeahhhhh
All day Everyday
Soul tied to my tribe like
Yeahhhhh
All day everyday
Haliwa, Haliwa
Got my city on my back like a cape
No cap
Like a cape
No cap
Like a cape
If it won't for where I'm from
I wouldn't be where I'm at
Wouldn't be where I'm at
Haliwa, Haliwa
Hold you down kinda love
Rep my city, raising kiddies, aging pretty
Never drop your crown kinda love
I get it from my mama
And she get it from hers
Passing down the mantle
Put the flame to the candle of them redbone girls
Springing up in the 252
Like a tree that's planted by the water
I know exactly who I am
Because I am my mothers daughter
Yeahhhhh
All day Everyday
Soul tied to my tribe like
Yeahhhhh
All day everyday
Haliwa, Haliwa
Got my city on my back like a cape
No cap
Like a cape
No cap
Like a cape
If it won't for where I'm from
I wouldn't be where I'm at
Wouldn't be where I'm at
Haliwa, Haliwa
Your whole history is because of me

Got my city on my back like a cape

I wouldn't be where I'm at
Wouldn't be where I'm at
Haliwa, Haliwa
