Well, it grow together. It's like, first time I try to write a song is the first time I try to play the guitar. And so I can write a song without the guitar. But it really grow together. I really like stay with my guitar. But it just happen, is the inspiration come through man. Because, I personally, it look like, could I write a whole heap a tune, it look like. But I pick special tune to write. Cause a man can think of plenty things. Yuh know wah ah mean.
Won't you help to sing these songs of freedom? 'Cause all I ever have… redemption songs; redemption songs.
One love, one heart . . . Let’s get together and feel all right
Light up the darkness
The things that seem insignificant to most people such as a note, song or walk become invaluable treasures kept safe in your heart to cherish forever.
My future is righteousness.
I woke up this morning, Smiled at the rising sun, Three little birds, Sat on my doorstep, Singing sweet songs
Though the road's been rocky it sure feels good to me.
Look for things marked positive to you, like songs, because all dem things are right.
People want to listen to a message, word from Jah. This could be passed through me or anybody. I am not a leader. Messenger. The words of the songs, not the person, is what attracts people.
Overcome the devils with a thing called love.
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds!
No bullet can stop us now, we neither beg nor will we bow neither can be bought or sold
But my hand was made strong by the hand of the Almighty
