If I cut my hair, hope I grow it long
Back long, back time like way before
If I wear it straight, will they like me more?
Like those girls on front covers
Long hair make 'em stay little longer
Stay hair, stay straight, though we feel ashamed
By the curls, waves, and natural things
Curls, waves, and natural things
Okay, one time, if I grow it long
Am I good enough? Am I good enough?
About time I embrace myself and soul
Time I feed my selfish soul
It's been so long since I had a sew in
With a frontal and some color
If I cut it all off, will it even grow?
Will it grow back real long?
Gotta prove them all wrong
I don't want no struggles, I don't want no fears
I don't want no struggles, I don't want no fears
I don't want no struggles, I don't want no—
Does it make sense to you why I cut it off?
Okay, one time, if I grow it long
Am I good enough? Am I good enough?
About time I embrace myself and soul
Time I feed my selfish soul
Met a nigga last year, Jimmy Mac was his name
And he told me that he wanna go and ride
I was worried about the clip-ins in my hair comin' out
Couldn't even catch a vibe
Hope he still loves me if he knows that this weave is gettin' old
The extension that I had to offer
He said, "Baby, don't you bother"
But when it's gone, just don't act surprised
'Cause I don't want no struggles, I don't want no fears
I don't want no struggles, I don't want no fears
I don't want no struggles, I don't want no—
Does it make sense to you why I cut it off?
Okay, one time, if I grow it long
Am I good enough? Am I good enough?
About time I embrace myself and soul
Time I feed my selfish soul
