Keep ya head up (Cover Song) Tupac Shakur

Keep ya head up, ooh, child, things are gonna get easier

Keep-keep ya head up, ooh, child, things'll get brighter (ohh)

Just got to keep your head up even when things are down don't listen to them haters they just drag people

Down turn that frown upside down and be happy everything is gonna be alright.

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

DJ Mac cares, if don't nobody else care

And uh, 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 gas ya up, I just call 'em how I see 'em (you don't need him)

You know me makes me unhappy? (What's that?)

When brothas make babies

And leave a young mother to 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 woman (yeah, yeah)

I wonder why we take from our women

Why we rape our women, do we hate our women? (Why? Why?)

I think it's time to kill for our women (why? Why? Why? Why?)

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 (oh, yeah, baby)

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

Keep ya head up, ooh, child, things are gonna get easier

Keep-keep ya head up, ooh, child, things'll get brighter (ohh)

Keep ya head up never look down cause if you

Look down you'll never find a real man that's down

To earth kinda guy, you'll never learn how to spread your wings and fly got a keep ya head up got a keep ya head up

Keep ya head up, ooh, child, things are gonna get easier

Keep-keep ya head up, ooh, child, things'll get brighter

Keep ya head up, ooh, child, things are gonna get easier

Keep-keep ya head up, ooh, child, things'll get brighter

And uh

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 (left you all by yourself)

'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 nothin' 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

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 the 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 keep ya head up girl
