Don’t tell me not to grow my natty dread

Summer 2008

Summer 2009

I would like to promote natural sisters beacause it really did upset me when relative or so call friends questioned the dread locking of my hair. What I have discovered is that there is no need to get upset because what I have discovered is people do not like change. If they see something that is different to what they feel is right they automatically assume what others are doing is wrong. This is a natural human response to the person who does not understand or know his own self. What I have discovered if people cannot accept me for me that is there problem and not mine. To put it bluntly shit happens so deal with it. I believe my hair is a gift from god and that I am free to grow it in any way I choose free from chemicals, straighteners, weaves, perms, relaxers, wigs, hair extentions and irritating weaves.

So to all who don't like my natty dread here goes...

Don’t tell me not to grow my natty dread
I’m not listening to the lies he or she or even you just said
Who god bless no man curse
Because I know who I put first
Don’t worry about the locks on my head
Just because it natty dread
Worry about what you do
Because I know who I belong to
I refuse to put braids in my hair
Because I know this is my natural hair
Don’t tell me about the chemical
Because none of it is real
See my hair its pure and true
You destroy your own because have no clue
Don’t tell me not to grow my hair
So you can pretend to me its to show you care
My hair for me is a natural art
But to you it looks a load of fart
That’s because you don’t know who you belong to
But I know my hair is forever fruitful
I’m proud of what grows from inside
It shows me that I wear my pride
You stand afar and critizie
Because you are foolish and unwise
But let me tell you where my hair comes from
Its a true blessing not from bobbywrong
My hair is natural, my hair is true

my hairs suits me its not here to please you

so if you can't accept me for who i am i really

don't care or give a damn.
