As it was designed by Jah who is my creator

Who sent me here... to help

to alleviate, the Shitstem. The dirt, the filth and corruption

that my people have been inoculated with

It is only my duty to teach those who will learn

That's the beginning of my days, at war

World War I

with the Devil.

It's only the truth that can make a man free.

It's only the truth that can make a man live.

The truth has been branded outlawed and illegal

It is dangerous to have the truth in your possession

You can be found guilty and sentenced to death

So irrespective of what men want to invent

or try to imitate, because they cannot create, you no see

they only try to invent, and researching and discovering destruction

but you know, so it was, so shall it be and these are the last days.

Reggae superstar Peter Tosh and another man known as Doctor

were shot dead, at the singers Plymouth Avenue home at about 20.30 last night

five other persons including radio JBC-dj Free-I were shot and wounded

according to the P.I.C. three gunmen travelling on motorcycles

went to Tosh's residence and demanded money

Tosh and his guests were shot when they refused

the gunmen escaped. The police have launched

a top level investigation into the killing.

I know that Peter had been loved by everybody apparently

so I didn't believe that anybody would do that to him

I wasn't looking for him to die that way

I say maybe you would die in a car crash, I know that he drive very fast

I wasn't looking for him to die by a gun shot

Nothing was really firmly established accept the motive of robbery

You know, rumors were fairly rife

Well the youth involved, was in one incident in which policemen stopped them

he had a weapon on him, Peter took her up

and when they got to the police station the table got reversed

he came out feeling bitter he'd sacrificed himself for Peter without compensation

He said to me one day, he was told, that the security forces are out to get him

he would be shot on the spot and he said...

he knows that, but he's not afraid to speak the truth, to die for the truth

I wasn't surprised when he died I knew that this was coming

There must be, there has always been the other side of the story

there are three sides to the story. Your side, my side, and the side of the truth

and most of the time, everybody tries to pull the side of the truth to their side

and the truth is standing right there, by itself.

And everybody is trying to pull the side of the truth to their side.

I came from a poor family

who financially wasn't capable to give me a proper schooling

or a proper education in no level

But at the same time, my ambition and determination, my hopes and aspiration

and my inner concept of creativity that was born in me

showed me to help myself, and I did.

In this society, I am classified as illegitimate

but that does not make me lose faith within myself

Because my mother was not married to my father

Because of unfavourable financial conditions

my mother wasn't able to grow me under her own nature and admonition

Yes, this is the street where Peter and I grew up, from the age of six

we grew up here with my uncle, Euriah Campbell

He was very strict, when it comes to church

we had to go to church twice on sundays plus every other night during the week

When I was about seven years old

I cannot forget when the Devil tried to blind me, with barbed wire

I heard my parents call

running very fast

I clashed with the wire.

Two barbs, could be three or more

stopped in my eye lid, right on the surface of my eyeball

I wiped the blood from my eyes, I looked into a mirror

and I saw where my two eye lids were slit open

open so wide I could see through them

That was one of the first major...

pit of destruction, that the Devil dug before my feet

So I would not see the ills, the corruption, the filth, the shit...

the destruction, the lies, the hypocrisy and the order of today.

My times, when I came to the planet, in the forties

the black people, would be recognized as nobodies

I had never seen a black lawyer, a black judge

a black preacher.

We become like sheep without shepherd

children without parents, students without teachers

Born in the conflict of poverty

all we had, was nothing.

But because of the divine spirit that we was born and raised with

it teaches us to multiply nothing with nothing and get something

zero with zero and get one.

I never know that he could play, so quick

until the school teacher tell me, that he can play the piano

That was where we realized that he had an inclination for music.

He used to be in the singing groups, the choir.

Yes he used to sing, from he was about four years old

and collect moneys

In that time it was shilling-days, people gave him a shilling for he could sing

but he used to sing Christian songs. - Then they started to teach me

of the Devil, and the Satan, and the Hell

they teach me of the Christians

but they make sure they teach me that Jesus, son of God, is a white man

When I ask why am I black, they say

I was born in sin and shaped in iniquity

One of the main songs they used to sing in church, that makes me sick

Lord wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

In my search I heard of the name God

I go to church and they say: God made man

of his own likeness and image.

If I make a doll, in my image

it is quite obvious, that the doll must look like me.

Yet still, I am faced with the ignorance

lost into fantasy

seeking to find the reality of what they taught me, of this illusion of God

I didn't like the blood business

I hate blood

And everytime I hear them talk about the blood of Jesus

I imagine, how much of my blood they would like to see shed

Because of them shed up Jesus blood so imagine, how praise him.

All of these things came down to what the black man could draw on

and what he came back to draw on, was a sense of himself through religion

a sense of expressing cultural assertion

in an environment where the black man culture was continual being suppressed

So he in a sense, fell back on religion and symbolism as a mode of survival

The church thing, he manipulated and assimilated, it didn't mean much to him

As a way of convincing the slave master that he was now civilized

could deal with the idiom, and master it hence his attempt to translate that

into musical forms that mystified the white man, and blew his mind.

My words is the truth and the truth causes offence

and I don't care what men want to say about me

because, without the truth there is no consciousness.

I was singing at the age of two.

When I was five, I made my first guitar.

I was learning piano music at the age of thirteen.

And if I only had the opportunity, of having my own professional instrument

I would bring the songs that angels sung.

When I came into the city of Killsome which is called Kingston.

It's the first time of me being on my own.

Leaving, under my parents jurisdiction

It was a new era in my life

A whole new page turned over

Because this was totally different from what I grew up with in the country

The most dangerous things I've ever heard or see in my life

is when I find myself, in Trenchtown.

I see many people, many youths in general

become victims of the Shitstem.

I see them die, I hear them cry

All the pain, the agony they bear.

Many I see die

because of impatience.

I see many get frustrated, hallucinated,

kinky, crack, nuts, crazy, walking out of themselves

lost into fantasies, seeking to find the reality.

And I see myself in the same similar Shituation.

I grew up with Peter. He used to bathe me, comb my hair

Because he was the oldest one of the family at the time

And he gave me... He says to me

That I shouldn't worry, and he's here to protect me.

I was attacked by evil forces, seen

Spiritual evil forces, that caused my mouth to cease from function

Caused my hands and legs to cease from moving

it's only my mind that was in function and my two eyes.

And I was on the brink of what you call, Death.

It started with him... when he came to live with us, Peter was in his teens.

I was wondering if I was paralysed.

At that moment, it caused me to make some inner communication

because that was the last resort.

So I made some inner communication and that caused me...

to get more confidence that there is a creator that dwells within man, seen

so I begin to ask him this question: What must I do?

I said what must I do, just lie there dead so and tomorrow I'm dead?

The spirit say, just say move your Bomboklaat

It say, don't hesitate you're on the countdown

In the countdown, it's like I heard 3... 2... and when 1... I was gonna say

Move your... BOMBOKLAAT! It just fly out like, BOMBOKLAAT!

Immediately, every spell was released.

In Jamaica, using the word Bomboklaat, it's like...

Using the F-word here in America

Bombo Blood Klaat, that's why these guys said these things in decent language

so that them can release their Vampires on you

and if you don't have that spiritual communication and counteraction

you go to heaven with your big-toe's jive.

The ghetto, it's the art of the Jamaican ghetto, right? And the jamaican ghetto

I don't know if the ghetto is the same all over the world, but in Jamaica

there's nothing there. We're talking about dirt, and dust

It's like each one have to help one another, every man for himself

The only thing we have that's for everyone is the inspiration of the Almighty God.

Bob, Bunny and Peter is more than just a band of musicians.

Them live and trod, like brothers you know, blood brothers.

You have feh overstand seh, Peter Tosh son, seh Andrew Tosh

Andrew must also call Bunny, uncle, Andrew's mother is Bunny's sister

And Bob's sister Pearl, is Bunny's sister, also.

So them tie up familywise you know what I mean

It wasn't just youths playing music, them live music.

When they first went to Coxsone they observed some professional efforts

But the were not professionals. They told them to stay with me.

But the Wailers was, that in my opinion, I needed to convey in them the ability

for each person to be able, to account for himself, in a Wailing form.

Because to be a Wailer, you have to cry, seen.

Because that is what it means, to go through troubles, temptation, seen

Humiliation and aggravation, police brutality

How much of them, ever go through that? How much of them, ever been to jail?

How much of them, ever been humiliated? How much of them, ever been executed?

He was the man with the guitar.

He was the one who would insist

on the harmony pattern, right, the melody.

Bob, Bunny, other persons

would come with melody and lyric but the person who would strum out

those initial chords, was Peter.

The government was totally against the Rastaman's presence.

The society had teach the people to hate and ignore the Rastaman.

Talking about fear. Fear was only one of the way...

of trying to eliminate the Lion from the society.

But that was one of the weapons that they tried to make HIM destroy himself with

There was many other ways and plots.

And when I investigated the fact I found: This black heart man, was the Rastaman.

The man of peace, the man of love, and tranquility within his heart.

The man that teaches good to his people, teach them to love each other.

I don't eat fish because I can't afford to take a life to save a life

Because the fish love him life just like how I love mine.

The man that was so humble. Sometimes, I feel embarrassed to see how humble.

He would smoke the Herb of the earth

And he smoked until his eyes become as red as a flaming fire.

But even though, as his eyes would be so red

from his mouth cometh the words of wisdom, that would be so uplifting.

I was raised in the society of poverty

where I saw the innocent being humiliated, daily, dying for being poor

so poverty, was a part of the crime in our society.

Poverty was designed and designated by bureaucrats and politicians.

And leaders of churches and states.

To see to it, that the Rastaman stay

in the category, of poverty, and want, and the needs

so he will break down, and start to commit crime.

But then again, when I look around me in Trenchtown

all I see was poor ambitious people.

Who had the ambition, and the integrity

and the defining qualities some times, and dignity of a million year.

I think that Bob Marley being a...

son of a white man and his mother being black. And Chris Blackwell was a Jamaican

I think there is a connection there. Between black and white

and I think Blackwell realized this. Because Bob Marley is equality to the

white man as he is to the black man. He is like a...

striking emblem of unity, which is necessary.

But I don't think Chris Blackwell used it in that form.

We know those Satans and those Devils they have been there for a long time

and I am sick and tired of their bullshit they are trying to create conflict

what they are trying to create between us is Superstars, seen?

and divide us, and make us look like we are rivals.

Bob Marley was my student, seen?

He was always my student, from the first moment he put his finger on a guitar

we were a group together, one went one way, two went the other way.

When I left the group, there are people who say that I am in conflict with Bob

or some kind of madness. Which is not a matter of being in conflict with Bob

but in conflict with the Shituation that I live in all my life, approximately

And it definites my character, belittles my authority, underestimate my abillity

and me couldn't stomach that for another twelve years.

Bob Ras. So can you imagine where I was at?

I had was to have faith

both in myself and the Almighty and ask him

to cool the tempest

so that I may be able, to ride safely

and accomplish my mission.

This! Was created by the Creator.

It has spiritual, botanical ingredients. It's a Tetrahydrocannabinol

it's anti-Fungus, anti-Virus, anti-Trichinosis and antidote.

We struggled to make the first record without any money and...

it took...

almost two years to make this one record, and find a record deal

and things kept falling through and not happening, for one reason or another

people were afraid of Peter, and didn't know how to deal with him.

And Jah created it for the motivation of the mind of man

to relax the mind of man, and is to do everything pertaining

to the upliftment of the mind of man to motivate inspiration.

What kind do you prefer specifically?

Sensimillia, man.

Long spread and king spread, the thing them call good shit.

A theory say if Herb were legalized, Jamaica would become an outlaw agronomy.

- Bullshit! - You think so?

Herb is being sold in Jamaica, nine out of ten people in Jamaica smoke Herb

so it don't turn outlaw, brother.

What I mean is, that there's this whole United Nations thing.

Fuck the United Nations! If Herb was a thing growing in the Bloodklaat U.N.

You think Jamaica could tell the U.N. what to do?

Light up your spliff, light up your chalice

Come make we burn it in a Buk-In-Hamm Palace

Give me some paper, give me some Rizla

Come make we chase away all those Vampires.

Light up the spliff, light up the chalice

come make we run away all those Vampires.

He didn't necessarily pick up arms. But his arms was his lyrics.

Well, the police wanted to get him, I heard alot of policemen say, hey...

- Virtually I like to take this man down - Him run afall with the law many times

In Jamaica once, he was brutalized by the police.

Out of one spliff, was almost beaten to death.

It was like I was born in South Africa

Because the environment I was born in. The philosophy that they preaches...

inoculates the youth, African youths, with inferiority complex.

In as much as I was taught that: When you're white, you're perfectly right

when you're brown, you can stick around

but if you're black, stay in the back.

Every morning, going to school

my grand-aunt used to wake me up

and she would almost wanted me to comb my hair

and if I was even combing my hair, for fifteen hours

when I finish, it would be the same.

And they would always curse and say

Natty bad head bwai. (bad bwai: bad boy, criminal)

I've been through World War I

and I am going though World War II

This is Jamaica, a lush, tropical paradise with rich land

unemployment is more than 30 percent and it's getting worse each day...

violence has broken out, tanks patrol the trouble spots

where in the past several months at least 22 have been killed

in shootings associated with the elections this fall.

And now Jamaica is headed into another election campaign

with prime minister Manley's National Party, against Seaga's Labour Party

The average Jamaican is desperately trying to make it through each week

Worse! Can't be worse, any worse than this is dead.

People are so frightened of sudden terrorist attacks

that they have lifted the street gratings so cars can't get by.

Unidentified gunmen have repeatedly attacked this neighbourhood.

This is a situation where the leaders of the so called gangs, in the ghettos

they came together and they saw it that instead of fighting each others

killing off brothers and sisters, they would call a peace truce, with a concert

They decided to, have Bob Marley headline the festival.

Peter couldn't understand what they mean by peace

because his terminology for peace was so different from how other people saw it.

More people died from the peace treaty being signed, till this time now.

Yes, I made that speech because

there I saw the minister of opposition and the prime minister.

He was not a recording artist, coming in to record a few songs

He's a guy coming in with his message. He's living his message.

He is living his image, he is his image and he is his message.

I've been brutalized by police. Not because I'm a criminal

or doing subversive things within the society.

but they know that I speak the truth and that is destructive to lies and corruption

Is there a connection between the speech at the One Love concert and...

the incident when you were brutalized? - Yes man I know it's a direct connection

Them chuck me in a corner and just went for all weapons of destruction

and just moved towards me, about 8 to 10 guys

I don't mean 2 guys, 2 guys couldn't do that, 4 guys couldn't do that Bloodklaat

8 to 10 guys hit me in the head with weapons of destruction

In the station, closed the door chased away the people

- Uniformed and plain clothes? - They were plain clothes police.

...I was beaten in my head with baton for about an hour and a half

and when I found out that these guys intention was to kill, seen

what I had to do, was just play dead.

And they say: Yes, he is dead.

So, they got in contact with me, who was Earl McGrath, of the Rolling Stones...

and Mick came to Jamaica. - At the One Love?

At the peace concert. The peace Blood- klaat concert, the One Love wasn't there

My performance, Mick liked it. We talked some business that looked progressive

I remember the first show we played in Philadelphia.

120.000 people I think, and there is this small group from Jamaica

I-n-I remember I went down on the stage the day, and looked in the audience

and all the blond hair and you know, the whole place was just filled.

people were throwing things on us

there was a bottle coming at me, and Peter stretched his hand and catched it.

Peter just go up to the mike and said: What the Bomboklaat going on?

Baas, 250.000 people I think. Quiet, quiet...

you could drop a pin and you couldn't hear it

and we just go through the set, quiet, and then come off.

And the Stones were introduced

I mean, suddenly it's like a million balloons are let loose

and the whole stadium gets up

and the Rolling Stones are on stage, and we say; this is what rock-n-roll is about

We have 10 concerts. - Did you bring your own band or?

I have my own band, no one can back I

- ...Stevie Wonder did that you know. - And Peter Wonder going through it now.

It was again another contract Peter had signed but didn't oblige all the clauses

He has his own way of doing record deals, you know.

I know the potential of my music and my music must be played and respected

the way any other white bullshit is, that's not culturally or morally uplifting

If the society is not to deal with moral upliftment, just let me know

and let me fuck off, because I will go to Africa and to the Far East...

and Japan and China where people are more culturally and morally awakened.

He wasn't understood by those who tried to interpret his message

and this creates infinite complications the Prophet is deeper than his time.

The sheep, all sheep of the fold has scattered themselves

and everyone is suffering from this grating called Ego.

Everybody is busy involving his Self.

The respect of humanity has been lost No man respect his fellow man again

But this time the truth shall swim like waters cover the sea.

And only righteousness can exalt a nation.

If it wasn't Bob Marley it wasn't Reggae So Peter must have had, hard work to...

break his Reggae, to the world.

Bob Marley was presented with the Order of Merit, the 2nd highest honour.

When Bob died, they called me to announce it to the radio stations.

But because of the closeness of Peter and Bob, and Bunny

I said to myself, let me call Peter first.

So I called him, I said, I'm calling you first to tell you Bob has died.

So him sad so...

If it so, just so. At least it leave a little space for all of us to go through

The truth is I was born with fear

lots of fear, for the evil that exists around the 360 degrees.

But there is something within me, that was born inside of me

that was called determination

and I know it has more power than fear.

Why do you think that a militant artist propose as a threat, to these people?

Because their works are corruption Where there's corruption must be eruption

And irrespective of what bureaucrats are promising the people, and the politicians

and telling them what they are doing, and think of doing, and promising good

but doing the most dangerous evil.

and all I've been seeing is that. I've been seeing from a youth growing up.

all this promises, all comfortable promises, for a thousand years

and a generation come, a generation go. And no promises accomplished.

Peter and Free-I had something in common. Which was they believed in this, see...

the blackness, see... the uprising...

the uplifting of black people

and black consciousness levels.

Free-I had now, put in an application

to get control of JBC Radio One

Free-I was almost certain, as they had decided, not to give it to a foreigner

And he was backed by Peter in all of this

In terms of structuring it along Rasta.

Black, that was the emphasis, that was the music played.

But the teachings of black people, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King.

The government was in a dilemma, they didn't want to give it to Free-I and Peter

they would prefer to give it to somebody else.

Jamaican society is not really ready

to have Rastafari be so projected, on such a serious medium.

Listen!

This one...

is brand new, from the new album: Mama Africa.

And this one is called: Not Gonna Give It Up.

He became over... overzealous.

His spirituality actually, overtook him. And he knew that there had to be...

like a Satan... going around at. Who always want to devour Gods people.

It's not a Michael Jackson Bomboklaat element, and the next one, Prince element

and them kind of little, bip-bap-Bomboklaat element

It's too... Why you say it? Why you say? It's too black for them?

And when I get so fucking upset, I don't bother talk English Bomboklaat grammar

Because them thing that get me very Bomboklaat upset, seen

And all the cause... You know why?

I'm not singing: Darling I Bloodklaat love you, and come shake my Ras and...

I will swim the ocean and climb the mountain. And that not going change me

I am going to kill the fuckrey out there and people will be in demand for the truth

People is sick and tired of hearing Bomboklaat get down, shake your booty

and darling I Bloodklaat love you, you turn on the fucking radio 24 hours a day

you hear, darling I love you. A man wouldn't sing to the Almighty a Rasklaat

him love him woman more than the Creator who create the sun, the moon and the stars

Are you sick and tired of hearing that Bombo Bloodklaat, seen!

Well, he had an answer

Around about '84 that it was dicovered, he came off the road.

Before he went to Africa he came to me saying he can't sing no more

so he wanted to go to Africa, you know, to clean up the act.

So one of the things he told me was, of being very impressed with...

the magical and mystical powers of the medicine men he met there.

especially one gentleman who introduced him to... roots

which if used in a particular way and taken on a particular day...

with the sun in a particular direction.

You would magically have the power to change your form

He told me quite convincingly that this African Doctor took the roots...

transformed himself into a tiger, into a serpent, and then back into man.

And he told us that, Peter would have to make a sacrifice, when back in Jamaica

and then Peter wanted something that... you know, this is true

Peter wanted something that could protect him from bullets.

Living in a small country like Jamaica, with everything there, good and bad.

you are confused of thinking what is what

and sometimes you are, the Bible tell you that

That you must be wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove.

And that means, you protect yourself because there is elements out there, evil

But being a Rastafari, you don't have to think about this when you're a Rasta.

She was someone within his household within his life, whatever

who was taking care of him. Because of him.

and handling his affairs, because of a personal relationship

she wasn't doing it for personal gain

she was doing it for both of them, because they had become one.

I know there was something wrong, and he said to me something on the phone

that really bothers me, up till now.

Because he has a fear, serious fear, all the time that someone was out to hurt him

Like it was a different Peter now, the duppy part of Peter

she awoke now, this whole duppy part

you know Peter was a man who was always speaking about ghosts

you want a story from Peter about a normal day, Peter fills it ghost stories

I would look out for Peter, and don't care who you are...

if I see you are bad news for Peter I said to you, get out of my life.

Long Bomboklaat time they've been robbing Peter to pay Paul

and I experiencing too much of that and they just wants me to keep on working...

All the days of my life, and when you're done working you end up at the doctor

I am not into that Bomboklaat, I'm not here to live up to no man expectation

People feeding me shit here, and think it been enjoying me, I can't take that.

This is the last year of me being treated that way, seen.

And it's only a pity that the few friends that I have out here

won't be seeing me here in the western hemisphere, I'm tired of being of use

You should consider working for an independent label, they are plugged in...

I was in close confrontation with the Devils

I could see them face to face.

I see them feed upon their brothers flesh

like the fowls of the air, feed upon the dead meat of the earth

I see everything that is deadly upon creation, invented

arranged to assassinate those, who speak the truth.

This business has a long reputation, of like...

guys who are bad, and sometimes they like to hang on to artists.

I spoke to him after the thing happen, I say: Why you kill Peter, man?

You know, I did the jail

And he says: I don't kill Peter, man. Peter give me the bed I sleep on...

the shoes I have on did Peter buy, who did you call killed Peter?

A man that knowed kind of how correct he was

Because a man that spent 13 years in prison for killing cops...

that's not an easy guy.

Well, he would tell you that he wasn't there

Well if he wasn't there, I never got shot.

Men, they didn't even have on masks that night.

It seem they came on a robbery, but I noticed, they didn't really took anything

that make me up for wonder, if it was really robbery they came on

The guy let him in as a friend, Michael, as Michael know him as Peter's friend

I see them bringing... pulling guns out of them side, you know.

They put the gun up my neck and told me to go upstairs.

We went upstairs, entered the livingroom where Peter and Marlene...

and Santa and Doc was there, watching television.

I saw Michael coming upstairs, with his eye tear open

Then I start looking behind Michael, and notice, I see three other men...

So when I look I saw them pull three guns and said to us, to lie belly down

So all we did was to do what they said and we all went down bellied.

At first I thought it was a joke.

I thought it was a joke because we are friends and play around sometimes.

Well at first I was shocked.

The first thing come to my mind was, I thought it was policemen, judging...

how they were dressed, they were smooth and clean-cut, no ghetto looking...

Everybody was laying down, I was still sitting...

then one of the guy came to me and say: Hey Dread, you fe go along too you know.

I just start praying.

And Leppo start asking about money.

Marlene was the first one to reply, immediately he said, she must shut up

because she was the cause of all this. - Here, another spot of that night...

the bloodstain, this is Doc Brown's bloodstain.

Over here you can see another stain, which is Peter's bloodstain.

It was an eery feeling.

The house just looked, I don't know...

I guess you call it woman's ...whatever, intuition.

But I said, after he knocked twice. With no response and I heard Marlenes voice

We couldn't figure out exactly what she was saying.

Telling them to run, don't come.

So I told them to run and one of the guy said: Shut up or I shut your name out...

Now as we got up the stairs, we saw everybody on the floor

and there these two guys walking around with guns.

He start to, looking around in the kitchen and he discovered a machete

and he came back and said to Peter: give us the money or I chop off your head

and he went up to Peter and raised his hand to chop off...

Marlene jumped up and jumped before him and said, you can't chop off my man head

One of the guy, said to Peter that; tonight you going dead there.

You could see that man, like they was really high, boozed up or some drugs.

If you looked up, they say; put your head down, why you look up for?

like I said I got gun butted just trying to see what happened to Free-I

The last thing I can remember, Peter saying to them is:

I have no money. I really have no money in the house.

This is what I heard, OK?

I never heard any arguments about any deals that never got payed for.

Reggae superstar Peter Tosh and another man known as Doctor

were shot dead, at the singers Plymouth Avenue home at about 20.30 last night

five other persons including radio JBC-dj Free-I were shot and wounded

according to the P.I.C. three gunmen travelling on motorcycles

went to Tosh's residence and demanded money

Tosh and his guests were shot when they refused, the gunmen escaped.

At the National Arena in the capital Kingston

the Jamaican people mourn the loss, of their Reggae superstar, Peter Tosh

It's not something that you can ever erase out of your mind

and I thought more than this, to get over this, is come back to this house

live in to it, and face it.

You see a friend face, you don't see his heart, so it's like...

anything can happen.

When he was very small, him was a baby. He always cry alot.

when them call me saying your baby cry I said let him cry, I want him to sing.

but I never know, he was going to be that singer.

When I look into the wide blue ocean...

I see the truth.

When I look up in the skies, the unfathomed ever skies...

I see the truth.

When I fill my lungs with fresh air...

I feel the truth.

It's only the truth that can make a man free.

It's only the truth that can make a man live.

Every form of victimization is universal not only in Jamaica.

because I live in Jamaica and see many youths become victims of the Shitstem

The Father gives me the inspiration to sing the music, because...

He said, I call upon the singers and the players of instruments...

That means I am here to play the music and to communicate with the Father...

so I can be inspired to make music, to awaken the slumbering mentality.
