rukus - black wave lyrics

[verse 1: rukus]
she coulda had + dreads like lauryn, accent foreign
bald head or curly hair, like 06′ corinne
“put ya records on” she said while pouring
up a glass, and the dj didn’t ask, he just started playing jazz +
like that coltraine vibe, +
in a sentimental mood that’s when we locked eyes
on some nina meet darius, “love jones” with various
characters, i asked for her sign, she’s an aquarius
“you get shy if people stare at us?” + she nodded no
asked if i’d been to selma, said “you gotta go!”
jill over badu, she like malcolm, not martin
she boujie but she still buy ramen noodles by the carton
she told me “go back to africa” + after the party
not like a “bootie scratcher” + she talking marcus garvey
on some “start a revolution and liberate black bodies”
only buy black owned, spend ya money at home, and i said…

[chorus: marium echo]
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
[verse 2: rukus]
she coulda had + braids like janet, pixie like nia
hair over her eye like ’96 aaliyah
she “one in a million”, black queen resilient
she hates being called strong, cuz she really has feelings
+i feel that +
we lay and stare at the ceiling
talk about books we reading, to find healing
she’s a feminist + seeing s+xism irks her
she don’t believe in hoes, “please call’em s+x workers”
she tells me “black men are the white men of black people”
“we both black, but i’m female + how is that equal?”
i start to argue, but it’s hard to + she good with words
she asked, “ever had to scream and hope that you were heard”
“or feel afraid saying no to what a guy asks you,”
“or feel afraid someone could grab and kidnap you?”
d+mn + i answered no to it all
she said “we gotta protect each other + for the long haul”, and i said…

[chorus: marium echo]
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
[bridge: marium echo]
things i think of when we lose our way
dreams of being free, my mind replays
ohhh…
if you make me smile, the ocean will spray
and i’ll hit you with my wave…

[chorus: marium echo]
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
i been on the same wave
i been on the, i been on the
