1.Baby don't cry
I feel you (Baby, don't)
But you can't, you can't 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
Now here's a story bout a woman with dreams
So picture perfect at 13, 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＊＊＊＊s 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' wit' your brains blown that would make the pain go
No, you gotta find a way to survive
Cause they win when your soul dies
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
Forget him girl, he ain't gon' never change
I ain't no hater, but that n＊＊＊＊ lost in the game
After the bright lights and big thangs
He probably could love her, but he in love with the struggle
Everyday his mind on gettin mo'
And never your feelings, he's chasin millions fo' sho'
Uh, oh, now you bout to have his baby, huh
Another wild a＊＊ n＊＊＊＊ that's gon' drive you crazy
You got too much, more livin' to do, I'm spittin' this to you
Cause you deserve more than what he givin' to you
Beautiful, black, precious, and complicated
A new millennium dime piece, so fine she
Got em all stuck standin' still when she come through
Baby, take a little more 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, 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
I'm tryin to do all that I can, from jump
Now you losin', you was choosin' the wrong man
Dealt the wrong hand, you was young and beautiful
Lost and turned out, what you let that n＊＊＊＊ do to you
I knew her since elementary, she blew a kiss to me
Wrote me a note in crayon, wantin' to get wit' me
We was kids, now she got 3 kids
They see their father every day and they don't know who he is
Seen him last night, homey rollin' E-class
Mad cheese in the stash, still a deadbeat dad
I bring her Pampers and food, just to stop through
But those, ain't my seeds, nothin' really I could do
I feel pity for you, you ain't even his wife
17 with 3 kids, locked down for life
Shoulda chose me, she bout to OD from the pressure
Hell, nah, I won't let her
Baby 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, 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, 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, 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
Uh, uh, yeah, don't give up
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry
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
For all the ladies
Baby don't cry
Got to keep your head up
Makaveli the Don, a'ight
