       Bob Marley

       Back in 2008 I expressed my thoughts on the spiritual nature of
       Bob Marley's Music on the Eckhart Tolle forum.  Much of that
       could be expanded upon to include events today and I have
       considered for some time about presenting my feelings on his
       Music here but always had so much else to focus on of my own
       work.  On hearing more about Lockdown 3 last night this song of
       Bob's came into my mind and I feel compelled to share my views
       on his Music and how it relates to today's world because his
       Music is very important to humanity and contains lots of clues
       and signposts to help us navigate out of this mess.

       Them crazy, them crazy
       We gonna chase those crazy
       Baldheads out of town;
       Chase those crazy baldheads
       Out of our town.
       I'n'I build a cabin
       I'n'I plant the corn
       Didn't my people before me
       Slave for this country?
       Now you look me with that scorn
       Then you eat up all my corn
       We gonna chase those crazy
       Chase them crazy
       Chase those crazy baldheads out of town!
       [Scat singing]
       Build your penitentiary, we build your schools
       Brainwash education to make us the fools
       Hate is your reward for our love
       Telling us of your God above
       We gonna chase those crazy
       Chase those crazy bunkheads
       Chase those crazy baldheads out of the town!
       [Instrumental break]
       We gonna chase those crazy
       Chase those crazy bunkheads
       Chase those crazy baldheads out of the town!
       Here comes the conman
       Coming with his con plan
       We won't take no bribe
       We've got to stay alive
       We gonna chase those crazy
       Chase those crazy baldheads
       Chase those crazy baldheads out of the town
       This song could've been written about Chris Whitty, Patrick
       Vallance and all that lot.  Baldheads is a Rasta term used to
       describe "system people".  People who support and work for the
       system like robots, completely programmed in and knowingly or
       unknowingly work against humanity.
       Not to disrespect the black slavery angle that is clearly there
       in Bob songs like these but the lines about building schools and
       slaving for this country could equally apply to where we are now
       in Britain and most other countries.  The very people - ordinary
       individuals - who worked hard to make places like Britain thrive
       are now finding themselves thrown on the scrapheap, struggling
       whilst those making these decisions "eat up all the corn".
       I bolded the section "Here comes the conman..." because that
       section could easily be describing what is going on with this
       "pandemic" and the solutions they are offering.
