Carrying the weight of every single day Having lost your way, feeling defeated Sat staring, counting spiral patterns on the wall You wonder if your luck is ever gonna turn around, but oh You need a little light to guide the way Waiting on the sun to shine again You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high You need a little hope to carry on In the middle of the night when you're all alone You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high Your bedroom carpet stained with rosé wine Empty's left behind, the morning after The distant purr of cars on soaking roads And the street echoes, the noise of laughter The bottom of the bottle, finds you almost every night You wonder if your life is ever gonna turn out right again You need a little light to guide the way Waiting on the sun to shine again You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high You need a little hope to carry on In the middle of the night when you're alone You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la Confused and battered by the motion of the changing tides You're nearing empty and you've barely got the will to fight You wonder if you're gonna live or if you will survive, oh You need a little light to guide the way Waiting on the sun to shine again You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high You need a little hope to carry on In the middle of the night when you're alone You gotta keep your head up high You gotta keep your head up high La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la

Yeah (Statik Selektah) Time waits for no man, life is but a two-step slow jam Dancin' with the devil, tryin' not to lose my balance Look, God blessed the kid with many talents, he was chosen It's why you see him livin' in the moment Every second, gotta own it 'Cause you never know when could be your last Time breathin', now you bleedin' from the gun blast And you thinkin' 'bout the past, see your whole life in a flash Best friends lowerin' your casket, now your son a bastard Pressure on his shoulders make him gotta grow faster Where I'm from, the stories never end with no happily ever afters (uh) Just broken families forced to start new chapters A natural disaster, the cycle in a loop And we caught up in a rapture Not to mention all the other factors Government agendas against rappers They wanna see us either dead or captured So I hold my head high 'til they put me below Best know 'til the day I die I'ma keep my heat close This is for my niggas who took a day to relax Huggin' their block but the block ain't hug 'em back So we hold our head high 'til they put us below Best know 'til the day we die we gon' keep this heat close This is for my niggas who took a day to relax Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug us back Took a trip to Miami that March (uh) Couple weeks right before my daughter got born (uh) To meet up with this kid by the name of X Had to go to him 'cause he was on house arrest, nonetheless Our first time meetin', we was always on the FaceTime He offered me his place to stay, "Thank you, but I decline" First impression in my mind, "Now that's a stand-up nigga Someone I could call a friend of mine and that's tough, nigga" Shit, I could talk about any type of stuff with him Never gave a fuck about who didn't fuck with him See, that's my nigga, I had to keep it a buck with him When he played me his album, I told him what he was missin' A lot of niggas woulda took that shit different Woulda thought that I was dissin' Instead, we found this beat and started riffin' Shit had me reminiscin', had me thinkin' 'bout Steelo Now that I can see his vision So I hold my head high 'til they put me below Best know 'til the day I die I'ma keep my heat close This is for my niggas who took a day to relax Huggin' their block but the block ain't hug 'em back So we hold our head high 'til they put us below Best know 'til the day we die we gon' keep this heat close This is for my niggas who took a day to relax Huggin' the block but the block ain't hug us back

Where were you when I needed heat? I'm frozen! Gotta get myself up And believe I'm broken Swim forward, we're underwater She took your breath away Tell me, love Thought you said you'd die for me?! No heavy rain's gonna hold me down anymore Nothing to shame's gonna strain myself, oh no Another day I'm the shine in your eyes Another day's gonna hold my head up high Higher higher higher (my head up), Higher higher higher (my head up), Higher higher higher (my head up), Higher higher higher higher higher One day was all it took for us, to fall apart Ship sinking with my heavy heart Come rescue us! I stay strong, bite them word son my tongue Lights flash, you walk away Laughs will be, got no room for hating me No heavy rain's gonna hold me down anymore Nothing to shame's gonna strain myself, oh no Another day I'm the shine in your eyes Another day's gonna hold my head up high Higher higher higher (my head up) Higher higher higher (my head up) Higher higher higher (my head up) Higher higher higher higher higher All these times I told myself Inseparable, but the time will tell Nothing is said in stone I left when in control All these nights I beg for rest Spend it in two in wilderness Nothing is said in stone Turn my back, hit the road. No heavy rain's gonna hold me down anymore Nothing to shame's gonna strain myself, oh no Another day I'm the shine in your eyes Another day's gonna hold my head up high Higher higher higher (my head up) Higher higher higher (my head up) Higher higher higher (my head up) Higher higher higher higher higher
