“Don't gain the world and lose your soul; wisdom is better than silver or gold.” ~Quote by Bob Marley Spiritual music guru of the decades passed and of the times to come Influence me with your kindness and your one love for everyone Greiving songs of war and captivity, wish upon us a non-marginalized life Noteworthy beacon of peace, hope, and unity in a world divided by strife Intellectual ability to take the complex and making it simple for the masses Fettered slave’s undone but not forgotten by generations as time passes Incapable of forgiveness there is stillness of mind, a chance for redemption Convey meaningful messages of compassion, let it be gratitude no exception Allies, they don’t want us to live together, together we can make an effort Never are friends embarrassed to cry with you when you are hurt Conscience, none but ourselves can free our minds to a greater path Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery for our sake in the aftermath
