letra de all 2pac 1-90 songs: keep ya head up 4:24 - 2pac

[intro: 2pac]
lil’ some’ for my godson elijah
and a lil’ girl named corin
some say the blacker the berry

[verse 1: 2pac & dave hollister]
the sweeter the juice, i say the darker the flesh
then the deeper the roots (oh)
i give a holla to my sisters on welfare, 2pac cares
if don’t n0body else care (oh)
and, uh
i know they like da beat cha down a lot
when you come around the block, brothers clown a lot
but please don’t cry, dry your eyes, never let up
forgive, but don’t forgеt, girl, keep ya head up
and when he tеlls ya you ain’t nutting, don’t believe him
and if he can’t learn a love ya, you should leave him
’cause, sister, you don’t need him
and i ain’t tryna gas ya up, i just call ’em how i see ’em (you don’t need him)
you know what makes me unhappy? (what’s that?)
when brothers make babies
and leave a young mother da be a pappy (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
and since we all came from a woman
got our name from a woman and our game from a (yeah)
woman (yeah)
i wonder why we take from our women
why we rape our women, do we hate our women? (why? why? why? why? why? why?)
i think it’s time da k!ll for our women, time da 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 (oh, yeah-yeah)
and since a man can’t make one
he has no right da 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 ya head up (keep your head up)
[chorus: dave hollister & 2pac]
ooh, child, things are gonna get easier (keep-keep your head up)
ooh, child, things’ll get brighter (oh-oh-oh, oh, keep your head up)
ooh, child, things are gonna get easier (keep-keep your head up)
ooh, child, things’ll get brighter (ayo, i remember marvin gaye)

[verse 2: 2pac & (dave hollister)]
used to sing da me
he had me feeling like black was the thing da be
and, suddenly, the 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
i realize mama really paid the price, she nearly gave her life
to raise me right (oh, yeah-yeah)
and all i had a give her was my pipe dream
of how i’d rock the mic and make it to the bright screen
i’m tryna make a dollar out of fifteen cents
it’s hard a be legit and still pay your rent
and in the end, it seems i’m heading for the pen’
i try da find my friends, but they’re blowing in the wind
last night, my buddy lost his whole family
it’s gonna take the man in me da conquer this insanity (oh, no, no, no)
it seems the rain’ll never let up
i try da keep my head up and still keep from getting wet up, huh
you know, it’s funny, when it rains, it pours
they got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor
said it ain’t no hope for the youth
and the truth is it ain’t no hope for the future
and then they wonder why we crazy, huh
i blame my mother for turning my brother into a crack baby
we ain’t meant da survive ’cause it’s a set-up
and even though you’re fed up, huh
you gotta keep ya head up (keep your head up)
[chorus: dave hollister & 2pac]
ooh, child, things are gonna get easier
(keep-keep your head up)
ooh, child, things’ll get brighter (oh-oh-oh, oh, keep your head up)
ooh, child, things are gonna get easier
(keep-keep your head up)
ooh, child, things’ll get brighter (and, uh, to all the ladies having babies on they own)

[verse 3: 2pac & (dave hollister)]
i know it’s kinda rough and you’re feeling all alone
daddy’s long gone and he left ya by your lonesome
thank the lord for my kids even if n0body else want ’em, ’cause i think we can make it
in fact, i’m sure
and if you fall, stand tall and come back for more (oh-oh)
’cause ain’t nutting worse than when your son
wants to know why his daddy don’t love him no mo’
you can’t complain, you was dealt this h-ll of a hand
without a man, feeling helpless (i know you were)
because there’s too many things for you da deal with
dying inside, but, outside, chu’re looking fearless
while the tears is rolling down your cheeks
you’re steady hoping things don’t all fall this week (yeah)
’cause if it did, chu couldn’t take it (yeah), and don’t blame me
i was given this world, i didn’t make it (oh, yeah)
and now my son’s getting older and older and cold
from having the world on his shoulders
while the rich kids is driving benz
i’m still tryna to hold on to surviving friends (oh, yeah)
and it’s crazy, it seems it’ll never let up
but, huh, please
you got to keep ya head up

- 2pac
