I'm goin' back to the South

I'm goin' back, back, back, back

Where my roots ain't watered down

Growin', growin' like a Baobab tree

Of life on fertile ground, ancestors put me on game

Ankh charm on gold chains, with my Oshun energy, oh

Drip all on me, woo, Ankara Dashiki print

Hol' up, don't I smell like satya, Nag Champa incense?
