Rise Like Marley

Lyrics

He sang of freedom through the fire,
With a lion’s heart and a soul that won’t tire.
From Trenchtown streets to the world’s big stage,
He lit up the world with a rebel’s grace.

With every chord, he healed the pain,
Turned Babylon’s chains into songs of rain.
Still we feel that burning spark,
In every rhythm, in every heart.

We rise like Marley, singing for peace,
One love echoing across the seas.
Truth in his voice, fire in his song,
His spirit’s here — it’s been here all along.

He spoke of Zion, he walked with pride,
With dreadlocks crowned and Jah as his guide.
No war could silence that sacred sound,
Roots so deep, can’t be torn down.

His words still dance in morning light,
A warrior of love, standing for right.
And when the world forgets to care,
We play his music — he’s still there.

We rise like Marley, singing for peace,
One love echoing across the seas.
Truth in his voice, fire in his song,
His spirit’s here — it’s been here all along.

Buffalo soldier in the heart of a storm,
He taught the broken how to be reborn.
Redemption songs still free the soul,
Through Marley’s words, we all feel whole.

So light up the night, let the message roll,
From Kingston skies to every soul.
Bob lives on — in every fight,
A rebel’s flame, still burning bright.
