Moonlit Braids

[Verse 1]
She ties her braids like armor
Gloss on her cheek, calm fire in her eyes
Steps through the block in starlight
Got a crescent grin and a truth that shines

[Pre-Chorus]
When the cold wind calls
She don’t fold, no
Every fear gets small
When she says, "go"

[Chorus]
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She saves the day
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She lights the way
Black girl magic
Standing tall again
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She comes through, yeah

[Verse 2]
Sneakers hit the pavement quick
Hand on her heart, she knows what’s real
When trouble comes around the corner
She turns that doubt into steel

[Pre-Chorus]
When the dark rolls in
She don’t shake, no
Hear the whole block sing
As she takes off

[Chorus]
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She saves the day
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She lights the way
Black girl magic
Standing tall again
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She comes through, yeah

[Bridge]
Call her name, and she appears
Side by side with the stars so near
Not a crown, just a spark that stays
One brave heart can change the day

[Chorus]
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She saves the day
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She lights the way
Black girl magic
Standing tall again
Moonlit braids, moonlit braids
She comes through, yeah
