| [00:07.94] | Condict music, uh-huh |
| [00:12.24] | |
| [00:13.03] | See I can kinda recall |
| [00:14.49] | Little ways back small tryin' to bawl |
| [00:16.94] | Always been black and my hair I tried it all |
| [00:19.22] | I even went flat, had a gumdee curly top and all the crap, now |
| [00:23.57] | Tryin' to be appreciated |
| [00:25.50] | Nappy headed brothers never had no ladies |
| [00:28.30] | Then I hit by the barber shop real quick |
| [00:30.49] | Had em give me little twist and it drove them crazy |
| [00:33.54] | And then I couldn't get no job |
| [00:35.73] | Cause corporate wouldn't hire no dreadlocks |
| [00:38.14] | Then I thought about my dogs on the block |
| [00:39.98] | Kinda understand why they chose a stealin' rock |
| [00:42.77] | Was it the hair that got me this far? (uh-huh) |
| [00:45.18] | All these girls these cribs these cars (uh-huh) |
| [00:47.61] | Hate to say it but it seem so flawed |
| [00:49.74] | Cause success didn't come 'till i cut it all off (uh-huh) |
| [00:51.46] | |
| [00:52.71] | Little girl with the press and curl |
| [00:54.89] | Age eight I got a Jheri curl |
| [00:57.34] | Thirteen then I got a relaxer |
| [00:59.95] | I was a source of so much laughter |
| [01:02.32] | Fifteen when it all broke off |
| [01:04.54] | Eighteen and then I went all natural |
| [01:07.18] | February two thousand and two I |
| [01:09.66] | Went and did what I had to do |
| [01:11.99] | Cause it was time to change my life |
| [01:14.20] | To become the women that I am inside |
| [01:16.92] | Ninety-seven dreadlocks all gone |
| [01:19.01] | Looked in the mirror for the first time and saw that |
| [01:21.46] | Hey... |

| [01:39.60] | |
| [01:41.55] | Good hair means curls and waves |
| [01:43.83] | Bad hair means you look like a slave |
| [01:46.26] | At the turn of the century |
| [01:48.14] | It's time for us to redefine who we be |
| [01:50.82] | You can shave it off like a South African beauty |
| [01:53.25] | Or get in on lock like Bob Marley |
| [01:55.68] | You can rock it straight like Oprah Winfrey |
| [01:57.99] | If its not what's on your head |
| [01:59.27] | It's what's underneath and say |
