Some say the blacker the berry
The sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh
Then the deeper the roots
I give a holla to my sisters on welfare
Aiko cares, but don't nobody else care
I know they like to beat you down a lot
When you come around the block
Brothers 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 ain't nothin'
Don't believe him
And if he can't learn to love you
You should leave him
‘Cause, sister, you don't need him
And I ain't tryin' to gas you up
I just call 'em how I see 'em
You know what makes me unhappy?
When brothers 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, yeah
But keep ya head up

Things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter
Keep ya head up (uh)
Things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter
Keep ya head up things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter (aye)
Things are gonna get easier
Ooh, child, things'll get brighter
Keep ya head up keep ya head up
Things'll get brighter
