Head High Lyrics by Shaun Reynolds

0

[Verse 1: Black Prez]
I'ma tell em like..
I was young had to learn how to walk
I wanted to rap but had to learn how to talk
Had a lot of memories but I kinda forgot
Moving out of Germany had to learn a new block
It's like, down the street we was playing
On the boulevard ouple girls
Little Joe
And Mr. Know
It all the older kids on the block still
Going hard but I would do anything for a Charizard
Easy life, at least that's what my mama said
I was scared I would run into my mama's bed
Wouldn't fight cuz that would get into my mama's head
Nowadays everybody call her mama Prez
Got dark had to call it a night
And everybody laughed when you fell off ya bike
Had my best friends like Kyle and Mike
We could make this a song if the harmony right

[Hook: Ebony Day]
Do you remember I told ya
You gotta keep your head held high
Life can hurt ya desert ya
Keep your head high

[Verse 2: Black Prez]
Damn feel like I'm getting older
Only judging by the height of my shoulders
I was taller than the other kids
Balling with the other kids kicked out
Of class, I was louder than the other kids
Yeah, but we always had a smile on no whips
But our bikes put some miles on
Never felt so blessed
Who'd of thought we be the last ones left
Damn, can't believe my homeys died
I can't believe my homeys cried
Lives gone but I really never thought of mine
"All be ok" yeah I heard that shit a lot of times
But it's not... or maybe it is
We would, never stop... or maybe we did
We was, on the block... livin like kids
If I ever had my own I'd be tellin em this

[Hook:]
Do you remember I told ya
You gotta keep your head held high
Life can hurt ya desert ya
Keep your head high

[Verse 3:]
[Ebony Day & Black Prez:]
(Every time that I look in the mirror see
My future gettin clearer stop tryna find me
I put it all behind behind me every time that
I look in the mirror new plan new era
That's all that I see I'm moving on where I'll be)

[Black Prez:]
Ya, my visions clearer than it's ever been
New game, new pins for my letterman
Heard a knock of opportunity I let em in
Ride out, had me feeling like the Prezident
Yeah yeah, I'm just where I wanna be
Remember where I had to leave
Remember who is on my team
Yeah yeah

[Hook:]
Do you remember I told ya
You gotta keep your head held high
Life can hurt ya desert ya
Keep your head high just gotta
Keep your head high
Keep your head high
