[Intro]

Offadaback of my ancestors

Let it breathe

Let that breathe

[Verse 1]

Honey still drips from my lips, and it's amazing

Take time for paper to pen, I wash my face and

Call up my couple friends, no fake adjacent

Penthouse high in the sky, still fuck wit' basements

Placement, wherever I wanna be, I'm still gracing

Take time out of my mind that I be thinking

Take a little tote on my trees and I be sangin'

Glory to the love in me and the many faces

Who love the light and exhibits the God that lives inside

Aww, you be glowing at me

Smiling, singing, laughing, you amaze me

Whew, I like to see ya

I wash my hands of all dem people

Who say that I ain't and can't

I really love for me, I be lighting up

And all around the cities

My people get what they been wanting for

And I be moaning some eww's

And I be sleeping too

[Refrain]

Offadaback of my ancestors

Offadaback of my ancestors

[Verse 2]

Sis Hattie, Annie Laurie, Shirley Delores

Linwood Harry, David Lee

Annie Pitt, Warren Braswell

Yup, I'm a part of the Braswell Family

Blu, Cousin Elanora

A. D. Danage too

Gene, Joyce Alice

[Outro]

On this fine day

I can go to the book store

Buy a book (Bill Drummond) and read it

I can go around the world traveling

See some beautiful things (Uncle Lonnie) when they said I was only dreaming

I can sing diverse music to a diverse audience (Marian) in diverse seating

Might not equate to much to some

But (Nina) I'm grateful to all the pioneers who stood up for freedom (Ella) and its meaning

Thankful for everyone who came through the back doors (Frankie)

Rode the backwoods bus through eminent danger (Sarah)

They did it for themselves (Tina)

But ultimately (Billie), they did it for us

Thank you, thank you

All because of you

All because of you
