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 short of my identity
(Uh huh uh huh)
I scream mom and dad why can't I be who I want to be?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 livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair

I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on these streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer, I swear
I'm as free as my hair
I'm as free as my hair
I am my hair
I am my hair
