Keep Your Head High

I been feeling mixed e- ok I been feeling mixed emotions lately I admit Becoming more decisive In what I omit Never had these thoughts Never had it Never had to run Always had to choose business over having fun As a kid, I had to grow up fast now Always bothered by why other kids would leave me out I had to speak up all the time so they hear me out Screaming at the top of my lungs like can you hear me now? Get on the bus leaving school sad Finally home but mom's at work now I'm getting mad Taught myself how to be lonely in my own space Now I'm older and I'm stuck in my own space Got the phone calling mom while she busy now Answers it with limited time we can talk it out Start to talk about my day and how it went about But I can't explain it and she got to go Leaving now To grandma's house I go She's just down the hill To talk about my emotions my emotions when I need to spill Mediator of the family who will keep it real Sad and angry at the same time, but she know the deal Open the door smelling food from the kitchen room Granny on the couch watching my every move Run into her arms, cry my eyes out she don't why But she says she understands and to keep my head held high She says my time will come and to keep my head high Leaving granny's house I'm headed back home now Mom is there, off of work so we can talk it out She's always making time when she doesn't have it at all We get right to it Talk for hours and we never stall We cry, we laugh, we get mad, but we always rekindle Knowing family is precious and can never dwindle She taught me honesty and just to never lie She says my future is bright and to keep my head held high So I'm a keep my head held high, yeah! For anyone who went through a similar life as I did I understand and I got you And I'm not the type of person to just say stuff to win you over Whatever you're struggling with financially, emotionally, physically, mentally Everybody is human and we all go through at some point You got to learn to suck it up sometimes and just keep your head high
