1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,300
Little something for my godson Elijah
2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,200
And a little girl named Corin
3
00:00:10,700 --> 00:00:13,500
Some say the blacker the berry,
the sweeter the juice
4
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,200
I say the darker the flesh
then the deeper the roots
5
00:00:16,300 --> 00:00:18,700
I give a holla to my
sisters on welfare
6
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,800
2Pac cares if don't nobody else care
7
00:00:21,900 --> 00:00:24,600
And I know they like to
beat you down a lot
8
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:27,300
When you come around the block,
brothers clown a lot
9
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,500
But please don't cry, dry
your eyes, never let up
10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,600
Forgive, but don't forget,
girl, keep your head up
11
00:00:33,700 --> 00:00:36,400
And when he tells you you ain't
nothing, don't believe him
12
00:00:36,500 --> 00:00:39,500
And if he can't learn to love
you, you should leave him
13
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,200
'Cause, sister, you don't need him
14
00:00:41,300 --> 00:00:44,500
And I ain't trying to gas ya up,
I just call 'em how I see 'em
15
00:00:44,900 --> 00:00:46,600
You know what makes me unhappy?
16
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:50,700
When brothers make babies and leave
a young mother to be a pappy
17
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,600
And since we all came from a woman
18
00:00:52,700 --> 00:00:55,600
Got our name from a woman and
our game from a woman
19
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,100
I wonder why we take from our women
20
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,700
Why we rape our women,
do we hate our women?
21
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,700
I think it's time to
kill for our women
22
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,000
Time to heal our women,
be real to our women
23
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:09,300
And if we don't we'll have
a race of babies
24
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,600
That will hate the ladies
that make the babies
25
00:01:12,700 --> 00:01:14,700
And since a man can't make one
26
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,200
He has no right to tell a woman
when and where to create one
27
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:20,300
So will the real men get up?
28
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,250
I know you're fed up, ladies,
but keep your head up
29
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:26,300
Keep ya head up, ooh, child
30
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,400
Things are gonna get easier
31
00:01:28,500 --> 00:01:31,100
Keep ya head up, ooh, child
32
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,100
Things'll get brighter
33
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,600
Keep ya head up, ooh, child
34
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,600
Things are gonna get easier
35
00:01:39,700 --> 00:01:42,450
Keep ya head up, ooh, child
36
00:01:42,500 --> 00:01:44,800
Things'll get brighter
37
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,100
Ayo, I remember Marvin Gaye
used to sing to me
38
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,100
He had me feeling like black
was the thing to be
39
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,700
And suddenly the ghetto
didn't seem so tough
40
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,500
And though we had it rough,
we always had enough
41
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,300
I huffed and puffed about my
curfew and broke the rules
42
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,200
Ran with the local crew
and had a smoke or two
43
00:02:02,500 --> 00:02:04,800
And I realize momma really
paid the price
44
00:02:04,900 --> 00:02:08,400
She nearly gave her life
to raise me right
45
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,000
And all I had to give her
was my pipe dream
46
00:02:11,100 --> 00:02:13,900
Of how I'd rock the mic and make
it to the bright screen
47
00:02:14,300 --> 00:02:17,100
I'm trying to make a dollar
out of fifteen cents
48
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,900
It's hard to be legit and
still pay the rent
49
00:02:19,900 --> 00:02:21,700
And in the end it seems I'm
heading for the pen
50
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,300
I try to find my friends, but
they're blowing in the wind
51
00:02:25,300 --> 00:02:27,600
Last night my buddy lost
his whole family
52
00:02:27,700 --> 00:02:30,600
It's gonna take the man in me
to conquer this insanity
53
00:02:30,700 --> 00:02:32,500
It seems the rain'll never let up
54
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,100
I try to keep my head up and still
keep from getting wet up
55
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,500
You know, it's funny, when
it rains it pours
56
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,800
They got money for wars but
can't feed the poor
57
00:02:42,100 --> 00:02:44,000
Say there ain't no hope for the youth
58
00:02:44,100 --> 00:02:47,300
And the truth is it ain't
no hope for the future
59
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,300
And then they wonder why we crazy
60
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,200
I blame my mother for turning
my brother into a crack baby
61
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:55,500
We ain't meant to survive,
'cause it's a set-up
62
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,700
And even though you're fed up
63
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,700
Keep ya head up, ooh, child
64
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,300
Things are gonna get easier
65
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,000
Keep ya head up, oo...........
