- KNaan 15 Minutes Away 歌詞
- KNaan
- And any man who knows a thing knows,
he knows not a damn, damn thing at all,
And everytime I felt the hurt and I felt the givin gettin me up off the wall,
Im just gonna take a minute and let it ride,
Im just gonna take a minute and let it breeze,
Im just gonna take a minute and let it ride,
Im just gonna take a minute and let it breeze,
How did Mandela get the will to surpass the everyday,
When injustice had him caged and trapped in every way,
How did Ghandi ever withstand the hunger strikes and all,
Didnt do it to gain power or money if I recall,
Its to give; I guess Ill pass it on,
Mother thinks itll lift the stress of babylon,
Mother knows, my mother she suffered blows,
I dont know how we survived such violent episodes,
I was so worried, and hurt to see you bleed,
But as soon as you came out the hospital you gave me sweets,
Yeah, they try to take you from me,
But you still only gave em some prayers and sympathy,
Dear mama, you helped me write this, by showing me to give is priceless.
All I can say is the worst is over now ,
We can serve the hard times, divorce is over now,
They try to keep us out, but they doors is open now,
My ***** Akon is gettin awards for covers now,
This is KNAAN, and still reppin the S
Comin out of Mogadishu and still draped in the mess,
And no matter how we strong, homie,
It aint easy comin out of where we from , homie.
And thats the reason why, I could never play for me,
Tell em the truth, is what my dead homies told me,
Oh yeah, I take inspiration from the most heinous of situations,
Creating medication out my own tripulations.
Dear Africa , you helped me write this, by showing me to give is priceless.
Nothing is perfect man, thats what the world is,
All I know is,
Im enjoying today.
You know, cause it isnt everybody that you get to give.
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
yeah, yeah, yeah yeah
