[00:00.00]Keep Ya Head Up (Explicit) - 2Pac (图派克)
[00:00.34]Little something for my godson Elijah
[00:01.53]And a little girl named Corinne
[00:03.22]
[00:10.22]Some say the blacker the berry
[00:11.78]The sweeter the juice
[00:12.91]I say the darker the flesh
[00:14.28]Then the deeper the roots
[00:15.65]I give a holler to my sisters on welfare
[00:17.97]Tupac cares and don't nobody else care
[00:21.22]And uhh
[00:21.97]I know they like to beat ya down a lot
[00:24.22]When you come around
[00:25.16]The block brothas clown a lot
[00:27.09]But please don't cry
[00:28.28]Dry your eyes never let up
[00:29.97]Forgive but don't forget
[00:31.53]Girl keep your head up
[00:33.15]And when he tells you
[00:34.16]You ain't nutting don't believe him
[00:35.84]And if he can't learn to love you
[00:37.47]You should leave him
[00:38.18]
[00:39.06]Cause sista you don't need him
[00:40.74]And I ain't trying to gas ya up
[00:42.31]I just call em how I see em
[00:44.37]You know it makes me unhappy
[00:46.18]When brothas make babies
[00:47.31]And leave a young mother to be a pappy
[00:50.18]And since we all came from a woman
[00:51.93]Got our name from a woman
[00:53.37]And our game from a woman
[00:55.80]I wonder why we take from our women
[00:57.61]Why we R**e our women
[00:58.92]Do we hate our women
[01:01.50]I think it's time to k**l for our women
[01:03.19]Time to heal our women
[01:04.69]Be real to our women
[01:06.57]And if we don't will have a race of babies
[01:08.88]That will hate the ladies
[01:10.25]That make the babies
[01:12.13]And since a man can't make one
[01:13.94]He has no right to tell a woman
[01:15.75]When and where to create one
[01:17.38]So will the real men get up
[01:19.75]I know you're fed up ladies
[01:21.63]
[01:22.34]Keep ya head up
[01:23.84]Oooo child things are gonna get easier
[01:27.92]Keep ya head up
[01:29.60]Ooooo child things are gonna get brighter
[01:34.15]Keep ya head up
[01:35.09]Oooo child things are gonna get easier
[01:39.15]Keep ya head up
[01:40.72]Ooooo child things are gonna get brighter
[01:44.34]Aiyyo I remember Marving Gaye
[01:46.37]Used to sing ta me
[01:47.68]He had me feeling like black was the thing to be
[01:50.43]And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tough
[01:53.62]And though we had it rough
[01:54.91]We always had enough
[01:56.15]I huffed and puffed about my curfew
[01:57.66]And broke the rules
[01:59.03]Ran with the local crew
[02:00.34]And had a smoke or two
[02:02.03]And I realize momma really paid the price
[02:04.49]She nearly gave her life
[02:06.12]To raise me right
[02:07.94]
[02:08.68]And all I had to give her was my pipe dream
[02:10.68]Of how I'd rock the mic
[02:11.93]And make it to tha bright screen
[02:14.19]I'm trying to make a dollar
[02:15.56]Out of fifteen cents
[02:16.68]It's hard to be legit and still pay tha rent
[02:19.37]And in the end it seems
[02:20.87]I'm heading for the pen
[02:21.87]I try and find my friends
[02:23.06]But they're blowing in the wind
[02:24.81]Last night my buddy lost his whole family
[02:27.12]It's gonna take the man in me
[02:28.56]To conquer this insanity
[02:30.24]It seems the rain'll never let up
[02:31.93]I try to keep my head up
[02:33.81]And still keep from getting wet up
[02:35.89]You know it's funny when it rains it pours
[02:37.92]They got money for wars
[02:39.30]But can't feed the poor
[02:40.50]
[02:41.55]Say there ain't no hope for the youth
[02:43.50]And the truth is
[02:44.24]It ain't no hope for the future
[02:47.12]And then they wonder why we crazy
[02:48.81]I blame my mother
[02:50.12]Or turning my brother into a crack baby
[02:52.74]We ain't meant to survive
[02:54.00]Cause it's a setup
[02:55.18]And even though you're fed up
[02:57.34]Keep ya head up
[02:58.72]Oooo child things are gonna get easier
