Whenever Im dressed cool,
My parents put up a fight.
(Uh huh, uh huh)
And if Im a hot shot,
Mom will cut my hair at night.
(Uh huh, uh huh)
And in the morning,
Im short of my identity.
(Uh huh, uh huh)
I scream Mom and Dad,
Why cant 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.
Ive had enough, this is my prayer,
That Ill die living just as free as my hair.
Ive had enough, this is my prayer,
That Ill die living just as free as my hair.
Ive had enough, Im not a freak,
Ill just keep fighting to stay cool on the streets
Ive had enough, enough, enough,
And this is my prayer, I swear,
Im as free as my hair.
Im as free as my hair.
I am my hair.
I am my hair.
Sometimes I waltz around,
Put on red highlights.
(Uh huh, uh huh)
Just because I want my friends,
To think Im dynamite.
(Uh huh, uh huh)
And on Friday,
Roxy, High school dance.
(Uh huh, uh huh)
I got my bangs to hide,
That I dont stand a chance.
(Uh huh, uh huh) a chance
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.
Ive had enough, this is my prayer,
That Ill die living just as free as my hair.

And this is my prayer, I swear,

I am my hair.
I am my hair.
I just want to be free, I just want to be me
And I want lots of friends that invite me to their parties.
I dont wanna change, and I dont wanna be ashamed.
Im the spirit of my Hair, its all the glory that I bare.
Ive had enough, this is my prayer,
That Ill die living just as free as my hair.
