Jammin - Spreading Positive Vibrations - Bob Marley Tribute

Sun is shining as I sing my redemption song. Hey lady, no woman no cry, lets spread one love. Jammin', spreading positive vibrations so strong, like three little birds easy skanking with a dove. Hey lady, no woman no cry, lets spread one love, turn your lights down low and dance like a soul rebel, like three little birds easy skanking with a dove. Don't be waiting in vain, let all your fears repel. Turn your lights down low and dance like a soul rebel, get up, stand up, stir it up, satisfy my soul. Don't be waiting in vain, let all your fears repel, exodus of emotions will make you feel whole. Get up, stand up, stir it up, satisfy my soul, shout I shot the sheriff, but not his deputy. Exodus of emotions will make you feel whole, feel like a buffalo soldier finally free. Shout I shot the sheriff, but not his deputy. Iron like a zion mind will help your hopes soar, feel like a buffalo soldier finally free, escaping from a concrete jungle full of war. Iron like a zion mind will help your hopes soar, feeling you finally could be loved as doubts cease. Escaping from a concrete jungle full of war, mind no longer questions is this love when in peace. Feeling you finally could be loved as doubts cease, Jammin', spreading positive vibrations so strong, mind no longer questions is this love when in peace. Sun is shining as I sing my redemption song.

Marley likened their fight to a fight for survival, and recasts it as a symbol of black resistance. The origin of the term "Buffalo Soldier" is theorised as given to black troops by Native Americans, who thought African Americans' hair felt and looked like a buffalo's pelt. The name was embraced by the troops, who were well acquainted with "the buffalo's fierce bravery and fighting spirit" Easy Skanking A form of dancing originating in Jamaica, now most notably done in Ska/Reggae shows A rare form of poetry. It is composed of a series of quatrains; the second and fourth lines of each stanza are repeated as the first and third lines of the next. This pattern continues for any number of stanzas, except for the final stanza, which differs in the repeating pattern. The first and third lines of the last stanza are the second and fourth of the penultimate; the first line of the poem is the last line of the final stanza, and the third line of the first stanza is the second of the final. Ideally, the meaning of lines shifts when they are repeated although the words remain exactly the same: this can be done by shifting punctuation, punning, or simply recontextualizing. It does not have to rhyme nor have a syllable restriction.
