And any man who knows a thing knows, he knows not a damn, damn thing at all,<br />And everytime I felt the hurt and I felt the givin' gettin' me up off the wall,<br />I'm just gonna take a minute and let it ride,<br />I'm just gonna take a minute and let it breeze,<br />I'm just gonna take a minute and let it ride,<br />I'm just gonna take a minute and let it breeze,<br /><br />How did Mandela get the will to surpass the everyday,<br />When injustice had him caged and trapped in every way,<br />How did Ghandi ever withstand the hunger strikes and all,<br />Didn't do it to gain power or money if I recall,<br />It's to give; I guess I'll pass it on,<br />Mother thinks it'll lift the stress of babylon,<br />Mother knows, my mother she suffered blows,<br />I don't know how we survived such violent episodes,<br />I was so worried, and hurt to see you bleed,<br />But as soon as you came out the hospital you gave me sweets,<br />Yeah, they try to take you from me,<br />But you still only gave 'em some prayers and sympathy,<br />Dear mama, you helped me write this, by showing me to give is priceless.<br /><br />{Chorus}<br /><br />All I can say is the worst is over now,<br />We can serve the hard times, divorce is over now,<br />They try to keep us out, but they doors is open now,<br />My nigga Akon is gettin awards for covers now,<br />This is K'NAAN, and still reppin' the S<br />Comin' out of Mogadishu and still draped in the mess,<br />And no matter how we strong, homie,<br />It ain't easy comin out of where we from, homie.<br />And that's the reason why, I could never play for me,<br />Tell 'em the truth, is what my dead homies told me,<br />Oh yeah, I take inspiration from the most heinous of situations,<br />Creating medication out my own tripulations.<br />Dear Africa, you helped me write this, by showing me to give is priceless.<br /><br />{Chorus}<br /><br />Nothing is perfect man, that's what the world is,<br />All I know is,<br />I'm enjoying today.<br />You know, 'cause it isn't everybody that you get to give.<br /><br />{Chorus}<br /><br />Yeah, yeah, yeah x 8
