2Pac — Baby Don’t Cry/Keep Ya Head Up II Original Version

[Intro: 2Pac] I feel ya.. baby don’t… But you can’t, you can’t give up [Hook: 2Pac] 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 Uh [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 niggas grabbin’ me For just a moment I was trapped in the pain Lord come and take me Four niggas 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 [Hook: 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 don’t cry
