Lyrics Baby Don't Cry (Keep Ya Head Up II) - 2Pac , Outlawz

I feel you
Baby don't
But you can't
You can't 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
Even when the road is hard
Never give up
Now here's a story
'Bout a woman with dreams
So picture perfect at thirteen
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 niggaz grabbin me
For just a moment I was trapped in the pain
Lord come and take me
Four niggaz 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
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
Uh
Forget him girl
(Forget him girl)
He ain't gon' never change
I ain't no hater
But that nigga 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 mo'
(Gettin mo')
And never your feelings
He's chasin millions fo' sho'
Uh oh (uh oh)
Now you bout to have his baby?
(Dayamn)
Another wild-ass nigga
That's gon' drive you crazy
You got too much, mo'
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 mo' time
Love'll find you
And show us the sky's blue
Somebody other than me
Gon' give you everything you need
Feel me?
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
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 nigga do to you?
(Damn)
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
Homey 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
Nuttin really I could do (nah)
I feel pity for you
You ain't even his wife
Seventeen with three kids
Locked down for life
Shoulda chose me
She bout to O.D. from the pressure
Hell nah
I won't let her
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 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
