Smile While You're Bleeding

This song that I'm about to post about is really inspirational. If you listen closely to the lyrics, K'Naan, the artist, seems to be telling a horror story from his past. Yes, that may be what it was, but he is really asking for help. K'Naan is from Somalia, and has now moved to Canada. His music talks about experiences, and it all seems very real, unlike some other rap artists.
The song is called Smile, which may sound kind of ironic. It's from K'Naan's first CD The Dusty Foot Philosopher, which I really encourage you to listen to, it's amazing.
Here's a link to listen to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQCTrCCPCaM&NR=1
