I’s free now,
No thanks to yo brain washing,
Massa, you had me tinking Hawaiian Silky was de way to be,
It all started with my mammy,
when I’s was just a lil’ chile,
she done took me to de womans’ place to put dat white stuff in my head,
I’s come out with de long tresses, no stresses
I done spent hundreds to look like YOU
but I was fooled,
me head wasn’t made for dat,
me roots is from the motherland
not your land,
dey was made to be free,
kinky and witout harmful manmade goop,
I’s free
After yeas of slavery to yo idear,
Good hair,
Bad har,
It’s all de hair,
I’s free
I’s going to celebrate me freedom.
No mo’ shackles to the creamy stuff,
I’s free,
I dreamed about dis day and it tis finally here,
I’s free
-Vida
Note: Words can not describe how great I feel to be free of the creamy crack!
I should have gone natural sooner!
I have a great curl pattern (so I’ve been told)!
I get compliments wherever I go!
