Bob Marley Duppy Conqueror Lyrics:
Yes, me friend,
We deh a street again.
Yes, me friend, me good friend,
Dem say we free again
The bars could not hold me;
Force could not control me now.
They try to keep me down, yeah!
But Jah put I around. Yeah!
Yes, I've been accused many a times
And wrongly abused, now.
Oh, but through the powers of the Most-I,
They've got to turn me loose.
O-o-oh! O-o-ooh! Oh! Don't
try to cold me up on this
bridge, now.
I've got to reach Mount Zion -
The highest region.
So if you a bull-bucka,
Let me tell you this -
I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror. Oh, yeah!
Yes, me friend, me good friend,
We deh a street again. O-oh!
Yes, me friend, me good friend,
Dem say we free again. Oh! Oh!
So don't try to cold me up
on this bridge, now.
I've got to reach Mount Zion -
The highest region.
So if you a bull-bucka,
Let me tell you this:
I'm a duppy conqueror - conqueror. Oh, yeah!
Yes, me friend,
Dem say we free again. Oh! Oh, yeah!
Yes, me friend,
Dem set we free again. Oh!
Yes, me friend, me good
friend, ...

Music does hold the power to lift us up and move us forward. I just listened to this on youtube:
Have been listening to Jimi H lately, and your offering prompted me to seek Bob again....thank you
And from your owns words...do spill....
Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality . Wake Up and Live! -----Bob Marley Quotes

You made a point, the road need no complications at all. Love and sweet songs are the key to divine spirit.
Cheers
