Why do I love my hair?
Because it doesn't care
Just like me
It just wants to be free
To just BE
No creamy crack
No water to slick it back
No verbal attacks
Yeah I'm nappy and happy
That's why I love my hair
Why do I love my hair?
Because it's confident and self assured
Nesta listens to no one
Not even me
Nesta knows she's on the right path
To be exactly who she wants
And when she wants to get there
By the way, she apologizes
For not formally introducing herself sooner
That's why I love my hair
Why do I love my hair?
She has taught me patience
She has taught me strength
We Baganda have a saying
The thing that doesn't talk
Cannot beat the thing that talks
So I chalk
All my victories in the battles
Between Nesta & Me
With moisture
And style
All the while
We both look fabulous
That's why I love my hair
Why do I love my hair?
Simply because
Nesta is a part or me
Nesta IS me
And if I don't love me
Who will I love?
Who will love me?
That's why I love my hair
