One Love

One Love....one heart....let's get together and feeeeel aaalright.

I love it. I was out riding my bike the other day listening to my iPod shuffling through about a thousand songs and this one by Bob Marley came up and just made me smile and sing so loud that I'm sure if anyone heard me they were in disbelief that someone with such an unrefined voice would be singing so boldly and so LOUDLY! (Sorryaboutthatbigrunonsentencelol)

Anyways, I just love it. I know, I know 'ole Bob was probably flyin' high on some wacky weed at the time, but come on, you've just got to appreciate the lyrics for what they are. The man was spiritual. I'm not going to get into the whole Rastafarian theology discussion, but I will say that 'ole Bob had it going on in a lot of his songs. Exodus, Jammin. Redemption Songs...just to name a few. Anyways, we haven't updated the blog in a while so I thought I'd post some of my random thoughts! Enjoy MON!

One love,one heart
Let's get together and feel all right
Hear the children crying (One love)
Hear the children crying (One heart)
Sayin', "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
Sayin', "Let's get together and feel all right."
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One love)
There is one question I'd really love to ask (One heart)
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own?
Believe me

One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One love)
So shall it be in the end (One heart)
Alright, "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
"Let's get together and feel all right."
One more thing

Let's get together to fight this Holy Armageddon (One love)
So when the Man comes there will be no, no doom (One song)
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation

Sayin', "One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel all right."
I'm pleading to mankind (One love)
Oh, Lord (One heart) Whoa.

"Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
Let's get together and feel all right.
(Repeat)
