Part of a full-length album of original songs conceived, written, and performed by a group of ten selected LGBTQIA+ young people from across the United States. And the craziest part... they recorded the whole thing from the comfort of their own homes.
lyrics
Daniel:
Prepare to meet your match, baddest of the batch
You ain’t got nothing on me, you aint got my sleek and shine
Oh I’m not what you thought? You seem kinda distraught
Not from your generation, it’s my turn to live my prime
Living oh so free, hair blowing with the breeze
You got issues with who? ‘Cause that sure as hell ain’t me
Shake it from side to side, keep this ponytail up high
I pull up with no script, never stutter never lie
And if you’re here with me
And if you’re feeling me
Just put your worries away
Long hair vibes everyday
And if you’re here with me
And if you’re feeling me
Just put your worries away
Long hair vibes everyday
AJ:
Grow my hair out to like three feet
I don’t really care ‘cause no one knows me
Go ahead and stare, I know what I want and what I want is long hair
Daniel:
And if you’re here with me
AJ:
(All I want is long hair)
Daniel:
And if you’re feeling me
Just put your worries away
Long hair vibes everyday
And if you’re here with me
And if you’re feeling me
Just put your worries away
Long hair vibes everyday
I wanna be the best of the best, impress
Wanna see the way they turn their heads when I dress up
They looking at me from the ground cause I’m up
You know I’m never coming down
Long hair don’t care, look at how it flows in the summer hot air
Yeah I’m feeling fine and it doesn’t kill my vibe when you speak your vile lies
Get your hair as long as mine
I’m living oh so free, hair blowing with the breeze
You got issues with who? ‘Cause that sure as hell ain’t me
Shake it from side to side, keep this ponytail up high
I pull up with no script, never stutter never lie
I’m living oh so free, hair blowing with the breeze
You got issues with who? ‘Cause that sure as hell ain’t me
Shake it from side to side, keep this ponytail up high
I pull up with no script, never stutter never lie
AJ:
Mr. or a Mrs. doesn’t matter
The way you look or dress isn’t a factor
Go ahead and stare, I know what I want and what I want is long hair
AJ:
Long hair
Daniel:
And if you’re here with me
AJ:
Hair
Daniel:
And if you’re feeling me
AJ:
Long hair
Daniel:
Just put your worries away
Long hair vibes everyday
AJ:
Long hair
Daniel:
And if you’re here with me
AJ:
I want long hair
Daniel:
And if you’re feeling me
Just put your worries away
AJ:
Long hair
Daniel:
Long hair vibes everyday
AJ:
Long hair
Long hair
Long hair
Long hair
Long hair
Mmmmm
Long hair
Long hair
