Song of The Day: Mos Def "Umi Says"

I bought Mos Def's Album Black On Both Sides When I was 11 years old and one of the major reasons was for this song right here.  "Umi Says" is one of the most up lifting songs i've ever heard it just takes me to a special place...great life philosophy.
Tomorrow may never come
For you or me
Life is not promised
Tomorrow may never show up
For you and me
This life is not promised
Tomorrow may never appear
You better hold this very moment very close to you
Very close to you 
So close to you, So- close to you (your moment in history is right now!)
Don't be affraid, to let it shine
I ain't no perfect man
I'm trying to do, the best that I can,
With what it is I have...
