Her, Is My Hair

I and my hair are quite similar

She wants to be wild in her own way, but her curls are in ultimate control.

Full of life... but sometimes her roots are dry, but she always knows her source.

She's said goodbye to the perms along time ago; she isn't bout that life.

She wants to be wild in her own way but her curls are in ultimate control.

Her best days are when she tries to impress, and the rain falls when she least expects it.

The faith she has in herself keeps her growing.

What could she be if she wasn't exactly who she was?

She wants to shine just like she is... but she can't

Her twist takes time, and she only has one night.

She wants to shine on her own but keeps thinking she needs more,

When she's already enough.

She wants to show the world her God's design was no mistake, but first, she has to know that for herself.
