Take a minute
Pillaged and raped through the constant dumping of nuclear waste, local fishermen armed with guns began to protect their coast line. It was only a matter of time before greed overwhelmed these men and transformed them into pirates. We aren't talking Captain Hook or Peter Pan here, this is Somali, the birth place of K'naan. The dirtiest depths of grit, grime, and struggle for survival makes East Oakland look like a damn luxury vacation in comparison to Somali. If you need any more proof that roses can grow from concrete look no further. K'naan is the light tower that keeps the smallest sliver of hope alive. He inspires and motivates just by being himself. Please just take a minute and listen to this incredible song. Lyrics: K'naan - Take a minute And any man who knows a thing knows He knows not a damn, damn thing at all And every time I felt the hurt And I felt the givin' gettin' me up off the wall I'm just gonna take a minute and let it ride I'm just go...
