Keep Ya Head Up (Ode to Tupac)

from Sounds of a Dreamer by Channel

/

lyrics

It’s gone get a lil brighter like Tupac said
And some say he’s back but Tupac’s dead
Jesus died on the Cross and like Tupac bled
And gives life through the
scriptures that Tupac read
So run with me no Hail Mary though
And fight through the rounds of life
No merry go
Concrete jungles hardknock lifer
One man band this that hard Rock cypher
I do it for the fighters I write for the dreamers
I write for the crowds who be hype in arenas
Screaming out Jesus do it to the death of me
I’m so about His Name
like the worlds about celery
chasing my green but I be chasing my King
the feeling is monumental this
a much bigger dream
This is Martin Luther King in your speakers
Urban theologians we some modern day teachers
Red Ink

Graveyards full of dreams that we aint gone see
So I don’t entertain thoughts but what I ain’t gone be
I’mma be great just like He said I’d be
And I rumble in the jungle like a young Ali
This for the bloods and crips its time we put the guns down
We all kings we just fighting over the wrong crowns
I want the one that was made out of thorns
Cause He laid down His life for the pawns
True kings even serve they own enemies
And trust the Word of God as they only remedy
Aint no other words for us to live by
So we read through the scripture instead of getting high
Keep your head up if you fed up with cancer and bills
Cause neither seem to let up
Just keep pressing on everyday grind on
Cause even when it storms true believers still shine on

This for all the mothers trying to raise kids
And teenagers who making it through divorces
And those clinging to their very last dime
Searching for a hot meal though its been hard to find
I’m just a voice of hope from the Most High
I know He seem far away but He’s close by
Just keep your head up we gotta pray more
This world try and knock us down but He came for
Everybody in the struggle who been going through pain
And you been dealing with the stress of life haaa
But just call on His name
Jesus the one who came down and died
And raised from the grave so that we could have life
There ain’t a price more greater a hope now or later
Than the Son who would embrace us as a savior

Keep ya head up
