Whenever I'm dressed cool, My parents put up a fight. (Uh huh, uh huh) And if I'm hot shot, Mom will cut my hair at night. (Uh huh, uh huh)
And in the morning I'm sure of my identity, (Uh huh, uh huh) I scream Mom and Dad why can't I be who I wanna be? (Uh huh, uh huh, to be) I just wanna be myself, And I want you to love me for who I am.
I just wanna be myself, And I want you to know, I am my Hair.
I've had enough, this is my prayer, That I'll die living just as free as my Hair.
I am my Hair! I just want to be free, I just want to be me And I want lots of friends who invite me to their parties.
I don't wanna change, and I don't wanna be ashamed. I'm the spirit of my Hair, it's all the glory that I bare. I am my Hair.
