2PAC- Keep Ya Head Up (Instrumental)

Keep Ya Head Up (Instrumental)
Lyrics:
Little somethin for my godson Elijah and a little girl named Corinne

Verse One:

Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots
I give a holler to my sisters on welfare
Tupac cares, if don't nobody else care
And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot
When you come around the block brothas clown a lot
But please don't cry, dry your eyes, never let up
Forgive but don't forget, girl keep your head up
And when he tells you you ain't nuttin don't believe him
And if he can't learn to love you you should leave him
Cause sista you don't need him
And I ain't tryin to cash up, I just call em how I see em
You know it makes me unhappy (what's that)
When brothas make babies, and leave a young mother to be unhappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?
I think it's time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don't we'll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can't make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one
So will the real men get up
I know you're fed up ladies, but keep your head up

Chorus

Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter

Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter

Verse Two:

Aiyyo, I remember Marvin Gaye, used to sing ta me
He had me feelin like black was tha thing to be
And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tough
And though we had it rough, we always had enough
I huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke the rules
Ran with the local crew, and had a smoke or two
And I realize momma really paid the price
She nearly gave her life, to raise me right
And all I had ta give her was my pipe dream
Of how I'd rock the mic, and make it to tha bright screen
I'm tryin to make a dollar out of fifteen cents
It's hard to be legit and still pay tha rent
And in the end it seems I'm headin for tha pen
I try and find my friends, but they're blowin in the wind
Last night my buddy lost his whole family
It's gonna take the man in me to conquer this insanity
It seems tha rain'll never let up
I try to keep my head up, and still keep from gettin wet up
You know it's funny when it rains it pours
They got money for wars, but can't feed the poor
Say there ain't no hope for the youth and the truth is
it ain't no hope for tha future
And then they wonder why we crazy
I blame my mother, for turning my brother into a crack baby
We ain't meant to survive, cause it's a setup
And even though you're fed up
Huh, ya got to keep your head up

Chorus

Verse Three:

And uhh
To all the ladies havin babies on they own
I know it's kinda rough and you're feelin all alone
Daddy's long gone and he left you by ya lonesome
Thank the Lord for my kids, even if nobody else want em
Cause I think we can make it, in fact, I'm sure
And if you fall, stand tall and comeback for more
Cause ain't nuttin worse than when your son
wants to kno why his daddy don't love him no mo'
You can't complain you was dealt this
hell of a hand without a man, feelin helpless
Because there's too many things for you to deal with
Dying inside, but outside you're looking fearless
While tears, is rollin down your cheeks
Ya steady hopin things don't all down this week
Cause if it did, you couldn't take it, and don't blame me
I was given this world I didn't make it
And now my son's getten older and older and cold
From havin the world on his shoulders
While the rich kids is drivin Benz
I'm still tryin to hold on to survivin friends
And it's crazy, it seems it'll never let up, but
please... you got to keep your head up

Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice

I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots

I give a holler to my sisters on welfare

Tupac cares, if don't nobody else care

And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot

When you come around the block brothas clown a lot

But please don't cry, dry your eyes, never let up

Forgive but don't forget, girl keep your head up

Keep ya head up, I know your fed up,

cause in the hood, things are messed up,

gangs kill you because of the way ya dressed up.

and we say whats up? but we get no reply,

everyday im living to die, sometimes I sit and cry,

but still there hope deep within,

I keep my head up and just keep smiling,

and soon all this will all be gone, Thats why i listen to this song,

a song from the great one... Just keep ya head up.

Gone ride for my side,Its the nawf side chunk it up high,in the sky next to my flag,no I dont brag,leave u in bags,n toe tags,had to grow fast,pimpin grown ass for sum cold cash,man u kno dat an fo show dats how is gone be,but to me coke keys n crack o z is all ill see since the age of 3,i was tough to be a g,livin free away from the penintentiary, eventually my destiny will cee wat its ment to be,but who knows so I flow to fill this hollow hole inside my soul

[cjewelz]

I've read faget critics say Makaveli didn't have beats before Me Against The World. What the fuck is this? All his albums have beats that compliment his flow. Makaveli didn't put his vocals on wack beats like N'ass has done.

[idontknowmypasswor]

yo some people say its hard to make a rap song its harder to take off yo girls thong cus when u feel ur rap in the heart u dont need a bong or a toke of the marihuana smoke been doin this since a little child free young and wild and i have in mind keep doin this for a while cus this is my style what represents me as a nigga and makes me feel a real nigga when whiteys look at me like if i was an action figure cus i where my pants low they think if i enter to grocery store ima do a big show hel no

[LimpBalm]

@jackazzjesse nice verse my nigga

[MrSAMBOdaRAMBO]

Now momma I know sometimes we have your differences. You don't really like to hear my rap but please listen to this. I understand I'm a young man trying too quick to live my own life. Stay out late partying can get us into fights. But i want you to know I still love you at the end of the night. It may seem sometimes like I can get fed up. But please momma, try and keep your head up.
