- My tragedys different
My lifes deep, listen,
Gotta bail, Im limpin
Walked outta hells kitchen
Why bother cherishin
My past is everything , wrong, and my arrogance
Walk down the stairs pissin
Cop us cuz theyre bitchin
life isnt fair, singin
Blues and my rap drippin
Ooze out the blood
Sinkin deep down to earth
thinking leave out a nerp chicken
I should run, forfit, and everything I know LISTEN,
I was
The misdirected
I was
The least expected
Hop on
And get rejected
Walk on
And feel neglected
I feel
Like im the message
Unheard
But Im the message
Im the last prolific remaining offer from the gutter
SHOT
was my girlfriend
when
We was younger
her
I was scarred yo
Bullets
I survived though
Death
Its came easy
Truth
the games needs me
Never let them see me down, smile while Im bleeding
Smile
When your struggilin
Smile
When Your in jail
Smile
When your dead broke
Smile
And the rents due
Smile
You aint got friends now
Smile
And no one knows you
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
Smile
When he leaves you
Smile
Cause girl he needs you
Smile
Plenty single mothers cry the tears you do
Smile
Dispite the war
Smile
despite the pain yo
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
to my man Kareem in prison
I cant speak your name
It hurt me that you never listened
It cant be the same
I had to grow my intuision
Had me deep in pain
Cause i knew my options were either broke or the prison chains
I cant do it
I cant see it, look
Damnit, I cant blow it
I got a judge tellin me my lifes key
they will throw it
nuh-uh, no sir
i plan to have a chauffeur
it seems to me this chopping crack is really going no where
Therefore
Im resurrected
They call me
The poor Injection
I infect you with the real
The Dustyfeetphilosahectagos
I spit, so sick
I skid out
Im fallin
Im Shit outta luck and Im trapped but ill get out
Can You Help me
Im goin crazy
My mom plays trix and i beat on the floor like bush wick
My fists bloody and blistered
a pair Like im balistic
I just stare at the red and smile while im bleedin
Smile
When your struggilin
Smile
When Your in jail
Smile
When your dead broke
Smile
And the rents due
Smile
You aint got friends now
Smile
And no one knows you
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
Smile
When he leaves you
Smile
Cause girl he needs you
Smile
Plenty single mothers cry the tears you do
Smile
Dispite the war
Smile
despite the pain yo
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
There are a few things you gotta take into acount
im not an entertainer ive never been a clown
i was born where tha mothers give birth while they frown
i would walk with the kids that would bbbrrraaaa a sound ah
never really thought id make it to fourteen
and anybody wanted to fight i was most keen
plus i had a little temper it was often forseen
yo say somethin bout my momma id shoot ya dead out clean
But ya gotta keep in mind that I grew up Mogadishu
the only law was gun law
and we dont walk with a pistol
you get laughed at for being so insensitive to the environment
cause how will you be heard when those big boys are firin
war is no place for a child
especially if hes rollin with an AK and a smile
he had witnesses on mother bloody in a towel
but please, please, please, please
but never let em see you down smile while you bleedin
Smile
When your struggilin
Smile
When Your in jail
Smile
When your dead broke
Smile
And the rents due
Smile
You aint got friends now
Smile
And no one knows you
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
Smile
When he leaves you
Smile
Cause girl he needs you
Smile
Plenty single mothers cry the tears you do
Smile
Dispite the war
Smile
despite the pain yo
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
Smile
When your struggilin
Smile
When Your in jail
Smile
When your dead broke
Smile
And the rents due
Smile
You aint got friends now
Smile
And no one knows you
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding
Smile
When he leaves you
Smile
Cause girl he needs you
Smile
plenty single mothers cry the tears you do
Smile
Dispite the war
Smile
despite the pain yo
Never let them see you down smile while you bleeding - Hudba
Been enjoying this song for literally 10+ yrs. Never gets old. This song is for special occasions when I feel/am lost
this song is my mantra to get through the hard times
nice.
All things must pass
what he describes is truly the African way of thinking...I'm Ethiopian and as long as I can remember, that has been the anthem amongst my people and rest of Africa. when we're struggling, when we're dead broke, despite the wars, despite the pain, we keep smiling. one love to my African people and all our Distant Relatives:) Keep smiling yo
"Assalaamu 'alaykum" Ayo Oyemade. Nigeria Much Love, PEACE, RASTA.
I know lots of people have said "Respect from America" so Respect From The Dirty South!!! Tennessee to be exact! Amazing stuff! I love K'Naan and I honestly forgot how amazing this song is until now. It's sad because when I speak of him no one really knows who I'm talking about around here. I'm trying to spread the word of how amazing he is!!
x0x0ke I am also big fan of him wonder why he is overtaken
He is too dope... From South Africa
One of my favorite K'naan songs - definitely in the top five.
am not a fan of rap songs but k'naan made me love rap... his songs are sick!!!
"There are a few things you've got to take into account, I'm not an entertainer I've never been a clown"
Definitely some of my favourite lyrics.
this guy is powerful, i haven't seen much of him, just on tv once and i was hooked. i love him!
Respect from Germany to K'naan and his fans....*thumbs up*
I never get sick of this song.
This song got me through some tough times. And everytime I am feelin down in the dirt I just listen to K'Naan and remember there are people in this world who are in worse situations then me and i should always smile for what I got, and never let people get me down.
This song is so hard...
K'Naan is the greatest international rapper ever....
Respect from the US, Ohio to be exact...We riddin' with you!

Smile, always no matter where, people who have witness that hatred when you're down, there always seems to be a barrier for those that have it different then others even so, smile.

Respect From Kenya
One of my favourite song k'naan you are the best
Respect from Egypt
Respect From Maryland, US
very perfect song, people think that this is a just love song but it isn't, is true storry that happened to a young girl called fatima. i love the way that k'naan, talks or raps about the struggle and the pain and the world and civil wars, all of that. look at the other rappers all they talk about is money, pussy, drugs, and some like that. but k'naan sees his self that he is more bigger than that, and which is really good.
Respect From INDIA....a true rapstar
Just found out about this guy last night and I've been listening to his music all day today.

It makes me feel like others feel the same way u feel at times! now my problems aint as sever,but the message is still the same! I love K'naan he is so infulential! He is probabaly the best singer i have ever heard!
