Is that India Arie [00:00:00]

What happened to her hair [00:00:01]

Ha ha ha ha ha[00:00:02]

Dat dad a dat da[00:00:06]

Dat dad a dat da[00:00:07]

Dat dad a dat da[00:00:09]

Dat dad a dat da[00:00:10]

Dad a ooh[00:00:11]

Little girl with the press and curl[00:00:14]

Age eight I got a Jheri curl[00:00:16]

Thirteen and I got a relaxer[00:00:18]

I was a source of so much laughter[00:00:21]

At fifteen when it all broke off[00:00:23]

Eighteen and went all natural[00:00:26]

February two thousand and two[00:00:28]

I went on and did[00:00:30]

What I had to do[00:00:32]

Because it was time to change my life[00:00:33]

To become the women that I am inside[00:00:35]

Ninety-seven dreadlocks all gone[00:00:38]

I looked in the mirror[00:00:40]

For the first time and saw that HEY [00:00:41]

I am not my hair[00:00:44]

I am not this skin[00:00:46]

I am not your expectations no no[00:00:48]

I am not my hair[00:00:53]

I am not this skin[00:00:56]

I am a soul that lives within[00:00:58]

What'd she do to her hair[00:01:03]

I don't know it look crazy[00:01:04]

I like it I might do that [00:01:06]

Umm I wouldn't go that far [00:01:09]

I know ha ha ha ha[00:01:10]

Good hair means curls and waves[00:01:12]

Bad hair means you look like a slave[00:01:15]

At the turn of the century[00:01:17]

It's time for us to redefine who we be[00:01:19]

You can shave it off[00:01:22]

Like a South African beauty[00:01:23]

Or get in on lock[00:01:24]

Like Bob Marley[00:01:25]

You can rock it straight[00:01:26]

Like Oprah Winfrey[00:01:28]

If it's not what's on your head[00:01:29]

It's what's underneath and say HEY [00:01:30]

I am not my hair[00:01:33]

I am not this skin[00:01:35]

I am not your expectations no no[00:01:37]

I am not my hair[00:01:42]

I am not this skin[00:01:44]

I am a soul that lives within[00:01:47]

(Whoa whoa whoa)[00:01:51]

Does the way I wear my hair[00:01:53]

Make me a better person [00:01:54]

(Whoa whoa whoa)[00:01:56]

Does the way I wear my hair[00:01:58]

Make me a better friend Oh[00:01:59]

(Whoa whoa whoa)[00:02:01]

Does the way[00:02:03]

I wear my hair determine my integrity [00:02:04]

(Whoa whoa whoa)[00:02:05]

I am expressing my creativity [00:02:07]

Breast Cancer and Chemotherapy[00:02:11]

Took away her crown and glory[00:02:13]

She promised God if she was to survive[00:02:15]

She would enjoy everyday of her life ooh[00:02:18]

On national television[00:02:21]

Her diamond eyes are sparkling[00:02:23]

Bald headed like a full moon shining[00:02:25]

Singing out to the whole wide world like HEY [00:02:28]

I am not my hair[00:02:31]

I am not this skin[00:02:34]

I am not your expectations no no[00:02:36]

I am not my hair[00:02:41]

I am not this skin[00:02:43]

I am a soul that lives within[00:02:46]

I am not my hair[00:02:51]

I am not this skin[00:02:53]

I am not your expectations no no[00:02:55]

I am not my hair[00:03:00]

I am a soul that lives within[00:03:03]

If I wanna shave it close[00:03:09]

Or if I wanna rock locks[00:03:10]

That don't take a bit away[00:03:11]

From the soul that I got[00:03:13]

Dat da da dat da[00:03:15]

Dat da da dat da[00:03:16]

If I wanna where it braided[00:03:19]

All down my back[00:03:20]

I don't see what wrong with that[00:03:21]

Dat da da dat da[00:03:23]

Dat da da dat da[00:03:24]

Dat da da dat da[00:03:25]
