Baby Don't Cry (Keep Ya Head Up 2)

I feel you

Baby, don't

But you can't, you can't give up

H.E.A.T., 2Pac with Outlawz

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Keep your head up

Now here's a story 'bout a woman with dreams

So picture perfect at 13, an ebony queen

Beneath the surface, it was more than just a crooked smile

Nobody knew about her secret, so it took a while

I could see a tear fall slow down her black cheek

Sheddin' quiet tears in the back seat

So, when she asked me, "What would you do if it was you?"

Couldn't answer such a horrible pain to live through

I tried to trade places in the tragedy

I couldn't picture three crazed **** grabbin' me

For just a moment I was trapped in the pain

Lord, come and take me

Four **** violated, they chased and they raped me

Even though it wasn't me, I could feel the grief

Thinkin' with your brains blown, that would make the pain go

No, you got to find a way to survive

'Cause they win when your soul dies

Baby, please don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Never

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Never give up

Baby, don't cry

Forget him, girl, he ain't gon' never change

I ain't no hater but that **** lost in the game

After the bright lights and big thangs

He probably could love you, but he in love with the struggle

Everyday, his mind on gettin' more

And never your feelings, he's chasin' millions for sho'

Uh-oh, now you 'bout to have his baby?

Another wild-ass ****, that's gon' drive you crazy

You got too much, more livin' to do, I'm spittin' this to you

'Cause you deserve more than what he givin' to you

That's right

Beautiful, black, precious and complicated

A new millennium dime piece, so, fine she...

Got 'em all stuck standin' still when she come through

Baby, take a little more time, love will find you

And sure as the sky's blue, somebody other than me

Gon' give you everything you need, feel me?

Don't cry

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

You'll be alright

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Keep your head up, don't cry

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Never give up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry

I'm tryin' to do all that I can

From jump, now you losin', you was choosin' the wrong man

Dealt the wrong hand, you was young and beautiful

Lost and turned out, what you let that **** do to you?

I knew her since elementary, she blew a kiss to me

Wrote me a note in crayon, wantin' to get with me

We was kids, now she got three kids

They see their father e'ryday, and they don't know who he is

Seen him last night, homie roll a E-class

Mad cheese in the stash, still a deadbeat dad

I bring her, Pampers and food, just to stop through

But those, ain't my seeds, nothin' really I could do

I feel pity for you, you ain't even his wife

17 with three kids, locked down for life

Should've chose me, she 'bout to OD from the pressure

Hell nah, I won't let her

Baby, don't cry

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, baby, baby, no

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Never give up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, you got to keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Keep your head up

Keep your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Never give up

Baby, don't cry

You'll be alright

Don't give up, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry, I hope you got your head up

Even when the road is hard, never give up

Baby, don't cry

Soulshock, Karlin

For all the ladies

Baby, don't cry, got to keep your head up

Keep your head up
