Thanks and Praises to the Most High God. This has been fun. I am looking for people to add to this musical trip I'm on. However, greater is He who is in me than is in the world. I am a one woman band... I play all these instruments... not always well, but I am playing 'em. Check out my blog, too... if you get a chance. Again... looking to collaborate Blessings

Story behind the song
I wrote these lyrics about cutting my locks because I have cut them several times over my life to release what I thought was the negative energy. Low and behold, it was truly my own guilt and grief that lead me to attacking my hair. PTL I am passed that part of my life. Be blessed and hold on.
Lyrics
When you have to cut yo locks/know you bound up in some box/know you tripping over something/telling yo self lies and sufferin/over some stupid obligation/ or the guilt of some frustration/or the shame you carried with you/ when you made the first mistake boo/and now all you do you can do/ until life finds freedom for you/when you got to cut yo locks/ and you got to shave yo head/know into a hole you've fallen/ and you might be out of wed/and your mind it seems to have left you back at some intersection/when you finally came around and found you fell into deception/kicking all yo butt to find out/ that it was a trap and no doubt/God the Father disciplines His/and redeems those that are His kids/and you sho nuf know you His/ when depression does sink in/and a path is carved out for light/ and your steps begin to get right/and your head begins to get tight/and that dude you with gets left right/when you got to cut yo' dreads/ when you got to shave your head/when you gotta to cut your locks/ when you fall into that box/over some stupid obligation/ or the guilt of some frustration/or the shame you carried with you/ when you made the first mistake boo/and you gots to shave them locks
