Little somethin for my godson Elijah and a little girl named Corinne
Verse 1:
Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots
I give a hollar to my sisters on welfare
Tupac cares, if don`t nobody else care
And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot
When you come around the block brothas clown a lot
But please don`t cry, dry your eyes, never let up
Forgive but don`t forget, girl keep ya head up
And when he tells you you aint nuttin`, don`t believe him
And if he can`t learn to love you, you should leave him
Cause sista you don`t need him
And I ain`t tryin to gas ya up, I just call em how I see em
You know it makes me unhappy (what`s that)
When brotha`s make babies, and leave a young mother to be a pappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women, do we hate our women?
I think it`s time to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don`t we`ll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can`t make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one
So will the real men get up
I know you`re fed up ladies, but keep your head up
Chorus
Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child thingh, I coud make it safe and clean,
If only I was sure that your head on the door was a dream,
I`ve waited hours for this,
Made myself so sick I wished I`d stayed
Asleep today,
Never thought this day would end,
Never thought tonight could ever be
So close to me,
Well if I had your faith, I could make it safe and clean
If only I was sure that your head on the door was a dream
