Nappy Hair

Nappy Hair - Jennifer Ray - Lyrics: Getting my hands in my nappy hair Until my fingers hurt and arms burn Is a totally addictive activity Tangling in something soft and something firm. Stretching it out from its tight coil Marveling at the length versus recoil Pulling and stretching it out again With great wads of it filling my hands Nappy hair is grace not disgrace It's part and parcel of the black race. The resilience and tightness of it all Is a roar as well as a siren's call. Melanin is the base of all color And nappy hair was the first curl And deserves honor for it's valor As recessive hair with time unfurled. Dig in it with your nimble fingers Marvel at the richness it represents Ignore the mockery and ugly zingers It's a beginning of hair not a descent. Some people say that less is best And they say that this too shall pass If it is the hair of the east not the west Neither is true. Tight curls always last Melanin is the base of all color And nappy hair was the first curl And deserves honor for it's valor As recessive hair with time unfurled. White cream can straighten it out Heating irons can press it flat But black hair is soulful and devout It bounces back and that's just that It will never be completely banished Cannot ever be killed and extinguished It keeps coming back time after time As if instead of out of scalps out of minds Melanin is the base of all color And nappy hair was the first curl And deserves honor for it's valor As recessive hair over time unfurled. If ever there was a soldier in this world Black hair has been armed and armored It's as tough as muscle with its tight curl It ain't exactly soft, not weak, not a charmer Laying in the sink like small bullets Color of charcoal, at times the color of fire Ready to fight the need to fulfill it. You know what I mean. I'm talking to the choir. Melanin is the base of all color And nappy hair was the first curl And deserves honor for it's valor As recessive hair over time unfurled.
