Hold them Little Garvey hold them show them you can get rough.
First I man must say H.I.M to all the people of the world. Big respect to Josh Moore.
A special greeting to I man lawyer David. If you ever need a roots lawyer with plenty patience check David.
In this music business what I fine is a new breed of legal hustlers. That think they rule the world, and that they are the only one that have rights. If I man hire you, them I man can fire you. Is that harassment Is a question I man ask? I man live in the house of reggae so Jah brighten my vision so I can see them from a distance. Go shout it out loud, and clear tell them Burning Spear have no fear. So they think I man is crazy, but I am not crazy I man his feeling Irie.
I man his rejuvenated, and ready to tell I man story, the world his I man town.
None will stop me from telling my story, because I man is the story. If you don’t know me how can you tell my story? What rights have you got to claims my story?
You sit up everyday looking free labor. I did what I can for you, now I man come for my pay no hold up and no touch up. Burning Spear will never get swell headed, and run away. Nature is I man guide look at blue sky, I man tell no lie.
The crime you want to charge I man for its not possible, I am not guilty. Everyone needs the best in life. It’s a long way around. Jah will keep I man through the night into the next light so I man can fight for I man rights. Distant drums are rolling calling all Burning Spear fans ,and friends to come rally around the old rastaman as he fight this new battle of young legal hustlers . This will be a fight with no compromise .Jah say the image of Winston Rodney aka Burning Spear will always live on. Jah will never give them the power to destroy I man. I refuse to let them take over I man head. Staying relax, and sweet to enjoy the victory of good over evil. I man rise up by the sea of Garvey lawn so I live to live, and to inherit the good which is to come. Some people think we are friend because they associated with you for a small amount of time. I am not your friend my money buy my equipment so go sue I man for harassment. I did the hard work of touring, and now you want to reap what you did not sow. in this business artist are always target for lawsuit from people that don’t want to work. And are looking a hand out. With over zealous lawyers ready to take their case. And try, and inflict fear. Looking to reap what they don’t sow.
Respect to all record labels that are doing the right thing for reggae artists. I man his moving along as a free man. Burning Spear will be making plenty changes in 2007. I will not be doing anymore long tours, yet I will continue to work on a limited base only. Time for I man to sit back, and reap what I sow. Most of my energy will go into making I man documentary from the top again. And into recording a new studio album.
Also watch for a new compilation CD of 25 tracks chosen by I man with DVD footage of live concerts, and interview. This CD will be title Burning Spear Experience.
Come people come be a part of this whole, Burning Reggae, Yes the old rastaman stand strong. Any thing like picture and footage on Burning Spear please forward to Burning Music Production. No footage or correspondent should be sending to anyone other company without seeing a letter sign By Burning Music Production. Giving them the permission to act on my behalf. I would like to make it clear that I am in charge of I man documentary. And would like to say respect to Greg Olliver for all the work he put into it.
I am the African postman who bring the musical telegram to all the people of the world. What a happy day, one love peace.
Keep the Spear Burning.
