Keep Your Head — текст песни

Yo, yo; Sometimes when I be chillin' writin' my rhymes

I recollect for a second «Can I find a peace of mind?»

Theese streets’ll have you stressed out, without no doubt

Chilling in two places stay pay in the crackhouse

I keep the trap mouth for 'round those whose line

Can’t afford the cord no for the pricing I be buying

I’m trying maintain, and keep it safe

Frame of mind so negativity can’t break my brain

It’s time to make a stand, although I’m only one man I got a voice

That goes about a million strong

Brothers we’ve got the game twisted, doing it wrong

One of the reasons why our people don’t get along

I hope we get ourselves together, don’t let time prolong

You can wake up in morning and it all be gone

Word is bond, it’s getting on a critical tip

And you ain’t really ready for that microchip

Or some nice man to take you on a long-ass trip

And have you working in on some concentration camp type shit

But nevertheless you have to weather the storm

And… Keep on!

Keep your head, don’t loose your mind

I know life can be hard sometimes

But you’ve got to persevere and weather the storm

Just, keep on!

Yo, through out twenty five years of stress and frustration

The government’s trying to make drugs my occupation

Avoid that temptation, for falling on crack

'Cause once you take an L, it’s hard bounce back

Announce facts, do mics when the mind is lit

And B.L.U.N.T.E.D. is on some other shit

And we loving it, with the unmatched ability

Mad fuckin' style that show our versatility

Cats be feeling me 'cause what I speeks the truth

And the message that I try to give across to the youth

Keep your head steady and always be ready

For weak-ass niggas how who rip trees to confetti

It’s real petty, but you got to persevere

And be the last standing when the guns smoke clear

I fear in the year 2G it’s gonna be, a government plan

To get rid of you and me

But we soon to see what the future bring

And to all my black people as queens and kings

We must, stand together in this time of need

And stop the backstabbing, jealousy and greed

Living lifes fucked up, but it’s better then dead, so.

Keep your head!

Keep your head, don’t loose your mind

I know life can be hard sometimes

But you’ve got to persevere and weather the storm

Just, keep on!

It’s time for me to accept

Responsibility it’s the way on my shoulders

Time goes by, I get older

And wiser and realize it’s a blessing I’m here

I a family member that are grew up with disappear

From gunshots to stab wounds, unprotected sex

Now they lived they life to me and breathe my breath

For that? I can’t rest!

Me being the oldest grand in my fam I got a precedence to sess

So my younger coursing can follow my first step

You don’t have to do what I do but just progress

Plus I’ve got a younger sister, I gotta put a deal with

The tricks in the trade the brothers just tryna hit

And run, twenty-five years young

And have to stay jail my life in feels like I just begun

To lay down a foundation for future generations

They don’t have to struggle, hustle and face incarceration

Tasting bullshit job and deal with discrimination

I want them to have choice, pick and choose your occupation

Start your own business enterprise throughout the nation

Nothing less then power moves making, so!

Keep your head, don’t loose your mind

I know life can be hard sometimes

But you’ve got to persevere and weather the storm

So. Keep on!
