A TRIBUTE TO BOB MARLEY
(76th birthday)
Because you have given the World "So Much Things To Say", we shall never be lost for words.
When I said that you have given us so many things to say, 40 minutes of listening to your anthology less than an hour ago, produce so many things for me to say.
But just to say a few, this Earth-Strong tribute goes to you.
Once upon a time your work includes, ‘simmer down’, it was for us to stay focus, and not to be confused by petty things.
For those unbelievers, you lectured them that ‘your music is going to teach them a lesson’.
When you cite Get up! Stand up! You were giving us encouragement to be strong.
When you cite Exodus, it was your collateral vision of what could be achieved through unity.
When you said, ‘open your eyes and look within’, it was for us to look within for decision making.
And because there may be a time when there’s so much trouble in the world, you provided us with redemption songs.
[Brother Bob!] Because you have given us ‘so many things to say’, we shall never be lost for words.
