K-ci & jojo - Baby Don't Cry
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Now here’s a story about 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 black 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 you could 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, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry
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 thanks
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 this 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 millenium dime piece, so fine she
Got ‘em all stuck standin’ still
When she come through,
Baby take a lil’ mo' time
Love will 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, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya 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 ya losin’ ya was choosin’ the wrong man
Dealt the wrong hand (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 were kids
Now she got three kids
They see their father ev’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 deathbeat 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 3 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
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
Even when the road is hard, never give up
Baby don’t cry, I hope ya got ya head up
