Intro: Wyclef Jean (2Pac)
Hey (I feel you) tribute to 2Pac (But you can't, you can't give up)
Wyclef AKA The Preacher's Son, lord lord
Chorus: 2Pac (Wyclef Jean)
Baby don't cry, I hope you got your head up (Yeah!)
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 (Don't Cry)
Verse 1: 2Pac
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 n****z grabbin me
For just a moment I was trapped in the pain, Lord come and take me
Four n****s 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
Chorus: 2Pac
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 {never give up}
Baby don't cry, I hope you got your head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Interlude of 2Pac interview:
No matter what these people say about me my music does not glorify any image
My music, is spiritual if you listen to it
It's all about emotion
I tell my, my, my innermost darkest secrets
Verse 2: Wyclef Jean
The block is hot, sellin rocks
Crooked cops, fiends on the block
Where is the love, love, love HEY!
Where the wrong colors on your head
Find you sleepin with the dead
Where is the love, love, love, love, love
Five of us use to sleep on one bed
Mom on welfare too proud too beg
Jerome's on the corner screamin deuce deuce
Yesterday they found his body on the roof roof
Now he's rollin dice in gangsta's paradise
With 2Pac, Biggie and Christ
But I can't front, death hurts
But I know he mustc return to the (?) throne
Hey! Thugs are dyin mother's cry
So be forced to walk with iron
Where is the love, love, love, hey
Father father, watch your children
Protect them from the villian
Where is the lov, love, love, yeah!
Chorus & Outro: 2Pac
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 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 {never give up}
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 |
