Hi Everyone
When I saw that this weeks open mic theme is "Fight Opression" I knew I had to take a shot at a Bob Marley song.
I imagine this week will see at least a few of Bob's song trending in the open mic community.
As I read the theme "Fight Opression" the first lyric that popped into my head was
" Jah come to break downpression
Rule equality
Wipe away transgression
Set the captives free."
So I figure I would take a shot at coming up with a version of "Exodus"
I feel it fits the theme pretty well, I hope some of you enjoy what I came up with for this song.
"Exodus"
Bob Marley
Exodus ,movement of Jah people!
Exodus , alright ,movement of Jah people.
Men and people will fight ya down
When ya see jah light
Let me tell you that when you're not wrong
Everything is all right
