ALWAYS KEEP YOUR HEAD UP
Always keep your head up,
Don't let the pressure build-up.
Every day you will have different situations
It may be because you have low expectations
Take your time to look around
Better times will come around
Most problems can be solved
It may take you more to get involved
Don't be afraid keep your faith
Eventually, you will get that big break
Sometimes it will be hard for you to cope
All you need is to be under control
And remember you are never alone
Trust in God
He will respond
You will always have challenges to get through
So always remember to keep your head up high

I know you're tired of going through the pain, and tired of standing in the pouring rain. From the moment you were born, a target on your back, facing the sun's warmth, yet feeling the dark attack.
You've seen both light and shadows, pressure on your mind, hold on, keep your head up, brighter days you'll find. Ooh child, things are gonna get easier, hold on to hope, the light shines clearer.
People see just pieces of the puzzle you endure,
Unaware of the whispers, and wounds that feel so pure. They don’t know the terrors that play when you sleep, nor the depth of the secrets, in your heart you keep.
Abuse and sorrow, feeling you don't belong, yet, through it all, you strive to stay strong. Ooh child, things will get brighter, with every step forward, your soul grows lighter.
Keep your head high, let your spirit soar, brighter days ahead, you're meant for more. In the midst of pain, find the strength inside, for in your resilience, your spirit will rise.
Don't be sad, why be blue
Royalty blue, purple hue
HOLD YOUR HEAD UP
Heavenly steps keep your feet clean
Jesus carries us, there's no reason for us-to talk
HOLD YOUR HEAD UP
Hold your head up, praises arms, fingers, hands and voices
In Our Daddy Abba Father Elohim, ALL provider
HOLD YOUR HEAD UP
He's Our Blessed rain/reign
Amen
HOLD YO HEAD UP

Keep your Heads up high
Inspire your self
And keep moving
Don't impress no one but your self
Yes be in competition with your self
Instead of the world that don't care
Set your goals and get them
Set up another go for it
Be limitless my friend
Who told you you cant do it
You can always get to your height
Your dreams are possible
So Inspire yourself
Never say never
Keep your head up high
Keep your head up high
The world can never come
After you
If you are not successful
Success speak for it self
So is not your fault you got haters
If your are wise turn them to motivation
They never believe in you
But your achievement could turn
Enemies to friends
So inspire yourself
Be limitless
Let no one stop you
Your are already a force
So stand tall or fall below
Despite all challenges of life
Be yourself be focus
Keep your head up high
We need a touch of inspiration,
To lighten our pain and frustration.
Despite the sacrifices and amendments,
America remains mad and against us.
With the entire country on lockdown,
It seems impossible not to feel down.
It’s hard for us to keep our head up,
When worldly issues continue to pile up.
Everyone is on edge and extremely sensitive,
An eruption could occur at the drop of a pen.
Race, injustice, and corruption are the triggers,
The black and blue bullets are the driving killer.
An awakened volcano is not a pretty sight,
Any moment it may start yelling at the sky.
Surely people are on the verge of blowing up,
It’s a challenging time to keep our head up.
I like to stick my head up.
Sometimes it gets lopped off.
While the angry one glares at me.
I like to give them my views.
Especially when they are unpopular.
Even when they surround me and mob me
Yelling and screaming in a threatening way.
I like to be counted.
Even when they take swords and hatchets
And lop my head off at the neck.
Even when they do it jaggedly.
That’s on them, right?
I like to stick my head up.
Sometimes it gets lopped off.
By the angry ones.
Served to me on a Santa Claus platter.
And it laughs.
I wonder how bright the stars were
When there was no electricity to drown them out
When the ancients roamed the earth
At a time, of building with stones
Did they look up as much
as we look down at our phones?

Always remember to keep your head up
When you face the world alone
These hills are mighty steep
As you try to find yourself on the horn
Fulfill your purpose accordingly
Continue to rise up
Have the strength and courage to carry on
And reach for the top
If I hold my head up
I shall not prosper
But if I raise my arms and hands
I shall stand
In the midst of HIM
Him whose the creator of all
I shall walk and not crawl
For I've heard it all
Up
Prosper
Hands-stand
In the midst of HIM
creator of all
I will not fall, I shall not crawl
If I hold my head up
I WILL PROSPER
I will not relinquish the slaughter
I come in peace
God is my peace
I shall release
His provident?

Watch the tide rise and fall
Just to know you're alive
No one sees what I see
They don't know what I hide
It's easy to drown
In the doubts of your mind
But we're not backing down
'Til the sun warms the sky
Keep your head up
I walk on so alone am I
Heartbroken now you've said goodbye
Each step is hard to take
And with my friends I will fake
That I am alright and not sad at all
As I hold my head up so the tears won't fall
I can't bear the thought of my life now we are apart
And how I will now have to live on and re-start
My lonely life again without you
Now our life together is through
So when you see me with my head to the sky
Know it's so the tears will not fall by.

Keep Ya Head Up
We get in the grip of governments scheme
While we pretend to hold hands in the land of mean
Sporting new clothes & attire
What is my hearts burning desire
Through a whole host of chorus that sings
Let's rejoice & toast to the king of kings
Keep ya head up even in social demise
One word to the wise it's best to surprise
Rise up ole man of God through the shutters
A peril of merciful fate on a latent desire
Through the stained glass window of saints gone before
We keep on knocking on heaven's door
A whole host of emotions lest I implore the opened door
Shattered glass a move to fast out on the village scene
Through viscious insults we evoke the pages in between
In times of trouble fighting back the tears from my eyes
It is no surprise that the late Tupac would promote
Keep ya head up through the pale stars at night
Never to relent in ever giving up on the fight
Through voices in the mere madness with riots in the street
A soldier cry's as a mortar is next to his feet
There's only one chance at this life to never repeat
With a line being drawn in the sand when will we understand
First,
Second,
Third,
Fourth,
Or
Honorable Mention,
At least I gave it a try
And
I will do it again
Pushed back into a corner by what they claim her to be
They're not the same as what they claim they want to be
Stronger, they are taller by far born to rule and lead the way
She's no good lower class less than zero broken glass
Head down she looks away eyes closed as if to pray
No one listens no one cares no one there to wipe her tears
Who is she to draw a breath every one the fear of death
Must be strong have no fear eyes wide open crystal clear
Moving swiftly crouching low hang on tight don't let go
Trying hard to have a voice pushing forward only choice
Can't go back must push on fighting till the break of dawn
Face turned up feel the sun war is over battles won
Sometimes you feel all alone when the days seem long.
Going down a path where the rights seem wrong.
On the road of darkness.
No lights being shown.
But no matter how far you get.
It leads back home.
So we stay stuck in the perdicament
That you tried to get out of
Climbing out a hole you can't get pulled out of
Spending time on ya knees
Praying for a miracle
Walking with your head high
Even though the pain umbearable
You gather with many
But hold hands with a very few
You can share plates with others
But give your last to your crew
And you can't tell difference
Cuz you can't trust them neither
It's the same face everyday
But showing different features
Click click. Can you picture this
Those same little bastards
Trying to make you quit
Saying they got ya back
But they ain't too legit
Thinking ya'll vibin together
Then they switch up quick
