E.i. the King - Keep Ya Head Up Lyrics

(E.i. talking)

-Hook- x2

Keep ya head up...
Sick and tired doing time know you fed up
Police caught you in the crime throw your hands up
Why they gave you all that time don't you give up na


-Verse 1-

They threw his life away,
They ain't playing they be serious as night and day
Whole family was in the courtroom when he lost his case
Mandatory sentence that mean it go day for day

Gotta hold on, stay strong
Everybody else dun moved on, so long ain't nobody there to lean on,
So wrong
That's what's happens when your bid long

This for my dawgs up on the road who caught a sentence
Who been waiting on appeals to be granted pray for blessings
No one knows just how feel can't relate to the depression
If we really being real you want to cry but you suppress it

Everybody gangster till they facing time and then they snitch
How you catch a life sentence and you ain't even have the stick
Codefendant held it down at first the end is when he flip
You ain't even do nothing you just when along for the trip make me sick

Everybody says its gunna be alright
But no one really knows what's going on inside
Been up at night and contemplating suicide
.....yea

I try to keep my head up all I feel is pain
I look for sunshine but all I feel is the rain
Stuck in my circumstances I been locked in chains
.....


-Hook- x2

Keep ya head up...
Sick and tired doing time know you fed up
Police caught you in the crime throw your hands up
Why they gave you all that time don't you give up na


-Verse 2-
cnd I been holding all my people down
There's too many in the system I can't even count
Cnd I never forget ya just cuz I made it out
I'm out here waiting on ya pray to God to free you now

When you going through the storm it make you better
There is purpose for the pain don't be ashamed of the umbrella
Everything is falling down but Jesus hold it all together
Give you peace that is eternity you know it last forever

Everyone was there in County went to prison then they dip
Got no money on the books live of the land and make it flip
This ain't Peter Pan in Never Land they killing off the rip
Cll that drama in the fence will stain ya mind and make ya sick it make ya flip

I know that time is weighing heavy right now
Cnd ain't no way someone else can calm ya mind down
They can't relate you on your own is what you find out
...yea

I try to keep my head up all I feel is pain
I look for sunshine but all I feel is the rain
Stuck in my circumstances I been locked in chains
.....


-Hook- x2

Keep ya head up...
Sick and tired doing time know you fed up
Police caught you in the crime throw your hands up
Why they gave you all that time don't you give up na
