Beware of … The HAIR … !!!
YEAH BEWARE of The HAIR … !!!

DON'T You Dare STARE … !!!
In Case My Hair...
Decides To SCARE …
And ATTACK Your Lair … !!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah It May Get DREAD …
And... LOCK Like Feds' " … !!!

Because Just Like THEM It Fires Bullets … !!!
WITHOUT A... Sound Defence … !!!!?!!!!

Like … ZIMMERMAN Did...
To Young TRAYVON'... Kid … !!!

Does That Make Sense … ???
Come On USE Your Heads … !!!

UNLIKE Black Girls …
Who Remove Their CURLS...
To Make Their Hair Swirl...
Just Like … White Girls … ?!?

Dealing In... WEAVES... ???
What Do They Achieve … ?!?
Some Kind of Belief …
That STRAIGHTENED Hair …
Makes Them Look Sweet … ?!?

Like Some Kind of CARE BEAR …
See That's The SAD Thing … !!!
These Attitudes EXIST...
About Peoples' Hairstyles … !?!
While Cops Act WILD...
And **** Young Child … !!!!!

FOOLISH Stereotypes In Modern Times … ???
STILL Ride HIGH In Many Peoples' Minds … ?!?

And Yeah I'm Talking About ALL Types …
Black And White And Asians Alike … !!!

Seem To Get … UPTIGHT …
When They See Me Walking …
... In The SUNSHINE … !!!!!

As If My Vibe Is About To INCITE …
Some Kind of … Street Fight … ?!?

WHY Because My Hair …
ISN'T … Short and Nice … ???

They Just DON'T CARE...
About What's... INSIDE … !!!

It's... NOT As If...
My Hair SHOOTS BULLETS...  ?!?

People Are TOO QUICK … !!!
To Judge And Think … ?
That They Know The Man …
Who Lies … " WITHIN " …

In Fact They REACT … !!!

THINKING Is The Thing...
That They CLEARLY LACK … !!!

It CAN'T Possibly Be …
Cos' I'm TALL AND BLACK …
And Let My Hair ENJOY The Air … !?!

Beware BEWARE …
of The … FUNKY Hair … !!!

It May Just... SHOOT …
And... Take Your LOOT … !!!

STUPIDITY Seems …
To ROAM The Streets … ?!?

Or... Could It Be …
... " Peoples' Beliefs "... ?!?

Some In TRUTH Are Actually Cool …
But... MOST Are FOOLS...
Who STILL NEED School... !!!

Why Do... CHICKS … ?
Say Things Like THIS … ?!?

" I hate to ask, but,
can I please touch it ? "

Maybe I Should Ask …

" Can I Touch Your **** !!! "

The PROBLEM Is ….
A Lot of These Chicks …
Really Seem To Think …
That I'm Cool With It … ?!?

When In Actual Fact It Makes Me SAD …
That They Could Be So LOST At Sea …

In A Time Where We …
LACK UNITY And HUMANITY... !!!

Where Mentalities Buy FALLACIES …
That... IGNORANCE FEEDS … !!!

Like … HAIR Being SCARY … !?!
Because of It's … " STYLE " … ?

It May Look WILD But Why Be WARY … ???
It Hides NO GUNS Or … IGNORANCE … !!!!

In FACT It Resides …
On The DEEPEST of Minds …
Who Writes These Rhymes …

To EDUCATE Minds About Stereotypes …
That Have NO PLACE In The World TODAY … !!!

So... STOP With The STARES …
And … FEAR FILLED GLARES … !!!

Cos' it's Really NOT FAIR …
To Judge On The Basis of Someone's …

............... " HAIR " .......... ?!?
Some of the issues of being black, and just letting your hair grow freely ....
