Keep Ur Head Up

Keep your head up to the sky

Determination will get right

You can hold me when it's cold

If you can only let me know

Young girl lost, when is you gon' learn to love yourself?

To trust him mean that you can't even trust yourself

He was a dog when you met him, now you mad as shit

You can't change that man, what you see is what you get

And just because he throw you out, don't let him walk over you

Have some pride, you're a woman, make him respect you

Brought bitches for him, took a couple stitches for him

He at his baby mom house, while you wash his dishes for him

How you gon' play? Believe anything he say

Choose him over your family on any given day

I can tell you not happy, cryin' yourself to sleep

Got a hit out on his ass and you still pushin' his Jeep

Your career ain't pursuin' it

When miserable, what's love got to do with it?

I know it's hard, but you gotta do what's right for you

See can't nobody hurdle obstacles in life but you

Keep your head up to the sky

Determination will get right

You can hold me when it's cold

If you can only let me know

Makes no sense, what us ladies gotta put up with

The backbone of y'all **** and we put up with

Everything, we hold y'all down when times is bad

Fuckin' sis for two years, now you know you the dad

Tryna escape responsibility, be a man

And you won't even take a blood test, ****, you ain't a man

Lie after lie, said you'd always be there

That's fucked up, 'cause the baby ain't ask to be here

Now she gotta struggle, shakin' her ass in a thong

Tryna make ends meet, stressed out, all alone

Scrapin' up Pamper money, tryna keep her head focused

Hard to stay strong when better days seem hopeless

Everything happens for a reason, it was written

Tried to make you stumble in this game, but you didn't

Might seem tough, but it'll be aight, girl

Get it together, do your thing, live your life, girl

Keep your head up to the sky

Determination will get right

You can hold me when it's cold

If you can only let me know

Got turned out, now you went and got loose at the panties

Went from weed to pills to coppin' those candies

Ain't had a seed yet, but you headed for the grave

Screwin' everybody, don't give a shit about AIDS

Lettin' **** run through you, and use you up

You don't know that shit could mentally abuse you up?

A free suck in a big truck

Neighborhood **** callin' you a free fuck

Your grandmother havin' thoughts of gettin' rid of you

Your mom smokin', you whorin', that's pitiful

All kinds of thoughts is goin' through your head

Make a change, ain't used it in a long time

But you got a brain, get yourself together, ma

You better straighten up, it's hard as shit on your own

Plus you growin' up, go to school, get a job, make your own cash

Then what them **** gon' say when you walk past?

Keep your head up to the sky

Determination will get right

You can hold me when it's cold

If you can only let me know

Take my hand

I'm here

Tell me

Keep your head up to the sky

Determination will get right

You can hold me when it's cold

If you can only let me know
