《Keep Ya Head Up》歌词

[00:00:00] Keep Ya Head Up - 2Pac (图派克·阿玛鲁·夏库尔)

[00:00:02] Some say tha blacker tha berry

[00:00:04] Tha sweeter tha juice

[00:00:13] I say tha darker tha flesh and tha deeper tha roots

[00:00:16] I give a hollar to my sisters on welfare

[00:00:19] Tupac cares but don't nobody else care

[00:00:23] I know they like ta beat ya down a lot

[00:00:26] And when ya come around tha block brothers clown a lot

[00:00:29] But please don't cry dry ya eyes

[00:00:30] Never let up

[00:00:32] Forgive but don't forget girl keep ya head up

[00:00:34] And when he tells you you ain't nothin

[00:00:37] Don't believe him

[00:00:38] And if he can't learn ta love ya you should leave him

[00:00:41] Cuz sister you don't need him

[00:00:44] I ain't tryin ta gash up but I just callem how I see em

[00:00:49] Ya know what makes me unhappy

[00:00:52] When brothers make babies

[00:00:54] And leave a young mother ta be a pappy

[00:00:57] And since we all came from a woman

[00:00:58] Got our name from a woman

[00:00:59] And out game from a woman

[00:01:01] I wonder why we take from our women

[00:01:03] Why we rape our women

[00:01:04] Do we hate our women

[00:01:05] I think it's time ta kill for our women

[00:01:07] Time ta heal our women

[00:01:08] Be real to our women

[00:01:09] And if we don't

[00:01:09] Well have a race of babies

[00:01:11] That hate tha ladies that make tha babies

[00:01:12] And since a man can't make one

[00:01:15] He has no right ta tell a woman when and where ta create one

[00:01:19] So will tha real men get up

[00:01:21] I know your fed up ladies

[00:01:24] But keep ya head up

[00:01:25] Chorus

[00:01:26] Eeewww child things are gonna get easier

[00:01:29] Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter

[00:01:35] Eeewww child things are gonna get easier

[00:01:41] Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter

[00:01:46] I remember marvin gay usta sing ta me

[00:01:49] He had me feelin like black was tha thing ta be

[00:01:52] And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tuff

[00:01:55] I thought we had it rough we always had enough

[00:01:57] I often huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke tha rules

[00:02:00] Ran with tha local crew and had a smoke or two

[00:02:03] And realize momma really paid tha price

[00:02:05] She nearly gave her life ta raise me right

[00:02:09] And all I had ta give her was my pipe dreams

[00:02:12] Of how I'd rock tha mic and make it to tha big screen

[00:02:15] I'm tryin ta make a dollar out of fifteen cents

[00:02:17] Its hard ta be legit and still pay tha rent

[00:02:20] And in tha end it seems I'm headin for tha penn

[00:02:23] I try and find my friends but they're blowin in tha wind

[00:02:26] Last night my buddy lost his whole family

[00:02:28] Its gonna take tha man in me

[00:02:30] Ta conquer this insanity

[00:02:31] It seems tha rain will never let up

[00:02:33] I try ta keep my head up and still keep from getting wet up

[00:02:37] You know it's funny when it rains it pours

[00:02:39] They got money for wars but can't feed tha poor

[00:02:42] Sad there ain't no hope for tha youth and tha truth is

[00:02:45] There ain't no hope for tha future

[00:02:48] And then they wonder why we crazy

[00:02:50] I blame my mother for turning my brother into a crack baby

[00:02:54] We ain't meant ta survive cause it's a setup

[00:02:56] And even though ya fed up

[00:02:58] Ya got ta keep ya head up
