PORTRAIT OF A LEGEND AND OTHER FOLKS IS ROOTS. SEEN
Marcus Garvey say we must look to the east, for when the
King come and then we will know who is our leader. 1930’s His Majesty come,
call King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah. So
I’m know that when the Prophet point the reality, that is the truth, an that’s
the road, you know the earth will have ideology. You know Marcus Garvey, Haile
Selassie is the best one. Alright when you check it out you find Haile Selassie,
Christ God Almighty and Marcus Garvey is a Prophet. Prophesize these things,
that is why today these things, you know reggae music, an Rasta music have
something to do with the people. Because there is something in people, which is
God, a reality, the truth. You know some people call it love, which is God the
Truth. You know people a search for and the truth is RASTAFARI because Christ
said HIM would return with a new name, should be DREADFUL AND TERRIBLE among
the HEATHENS an you call HIM RASTAFARI. SEEN.... BOB MARLEY
