This is a very very underrated track 🇯🇲 vintage Bob Marley

[@TheRealForrestGeorge]

Uh! Ya too rude! Uh! Eh! What a rat race! Oh, what a rat race! Oh, what a rat race! Oh, what a rat race! This is the rat race! Rat race! (Rat race!) Some a lawful, some a bastard, some a jacket: Oh, what a rat race, yeah! Rat race! Some a gorgon-a, some a hooligan-a, some a guine-gog-a In this 'ere rat race, yeah! Rat race! I'm singin' that When the cat's away, The mice will play. Political voilence fill ya city, ye-ah! Don't involve Rasta in your say say; Rasta don't work for no C.I.A. Rat race, rat race, rat race! Rat race, I'm sayin': When you think is peace and safety: A sudden destruction. Collective security for surety, ye-ah! Don't forget your history; Know your destiny: In the abundance of water, The fool is thirsty. Rat race, rat race, rat race! Rat race! Oh, it's a disgrace To see the human-race In a rat race, rat race! You got the horse race; You got the dog race; You got the human-race; But this is a rat race, rat race!

It took a great courage to write, sing and broadcast this kind of message at times when Internet was not around.... Let's pay tribute to this legend while we still breath so we can inherit this blessing to our children... Bob's music is for eternity...

[@nonyahbiznezz9094]

Amen! Whats funny here, my daughter at 18 sat down with meand we had a deep reconnecting.....Turns out her favorite songs include Steel pulse,"Your House" and several others with similar godly messages.

One of the sweetest thing about this song also it was written by his wife

[@jon3113]

Lets listen closely and apply this great mans music to our life and those you care about today. There has never been a time more important than today to understand that those you can trust was talking about concerns that have only gotten worse to today. Yeah, thats Bob. And he is clearly saying something here.

you do realize bob marley was against idol worship right? XD

[@oullahtakanbghikhbibadialiawil]

@@henkhenkste6076 yeah yeah he was against idol worship but bob marley was worshipping the emperor selassie !!!!!!!!!!! Most fans don’t realize it, but at the centre of Bob Marley’s musical and spiritual message is Haille Selassie. The Ethiopian Emperor got his adoring reception because about 100,000 Rastafarians in Jamaica believed Selassie was the messiah, the reincarnation of Jesus Christ; the son of God returned to Earth!! i don t like his believes i only like his songs

[@henkhenkste6076]

@@oullahtakanbghikhbibadialiawil great to see how smart you are friend. The rastafari are indeed fools, who claim to be christians yet go against the bible by worshipping a man lol. But from what I heard Bob Marley on his deathbed converted to true christianity, but thats unproven it seems. I also dislike parts of his music because of the Selassie worship but in my head I replace Selassie in the song with Christ or even when I sing it Ill replace some words to make it christian again.

[@ngolinyirenda6421]

As a musician, a bass player specifically, this version showcases Family Man and his musical separation from ANY other arranger in reggae history.

[@AS-wj1du]

Ashamed as a Jamaican that I've only really just got into Bob. Love this man since watching his interviews. How insightful and just beyond smart he was. He knew exactly how to get others to listen to him. He was dangerous for those in the rat race. I think they took him out. So sad 😞 😥 God bless his wife Rita and children and grandchildren and his mother. Can't imagine how they felt when they realised he was going to die. All those treatments. I read what The I3 Judy Mowatt said when she heard he died, how desolate she felt and she'd thought she'd see him again. He was almost home to Jamaica 😢 And Marcia Griffiths also said he was like her brother and father and looked out for them. I miss him and I never knew him. Is that crazy? 😮 Proud to have been born in the same land as this great ❤

[@jermo1213]

I'm so thankful for Bob Marley and the Wailers. They enriched the quality of my life. You not crazy. But he lives.

It's the same thing with money absolutely the same thing it appears that it's the thing that will fix all that is wrong in our lives and happiness comes with it but I have some staggering reality to tell you.... Money causes problems I've seen very wealthy families for Mom and Dad never see each other they're never at the house at the same time the kids are erect getting in trouble because they're trying to get attention and then again I've lived in ghetto neighborhoods Latino Mexican Mexican people for the most part and two or three people in the family all work full time just to pay the bills and you never seen More Love morphe happiness more togetherness they're genuinely happy and it's not money you hear that everybody give it up forget it it's not all that it's cracked up to be money is a tool it'll help but don't get obsessed with it because it'll take you away. The people who miserly work their fingers to the Bone to become millionaires wealthy people they don't all of a sudden turnaround go on a spending spree as soon as they hit the hundred apart of the million mark no they continue being a miser their whole life in they died with a bunch of money and what the hell good is that?

Isn't it ironic, here we the human race is supposedly at the top of the food chain with dominion over all animals on earth yet at any moment a nuclear war could erupt or global warming could reach the tipping point and 99% of the earths population could be killed off instantly. What is wrong with us? There really are dark forces surrounding us trying to overtake the good and godly presence here on earth. I don't see it exactly as the bible says, but the bible is written in a context the majority of humans can work with. Please, if your reading this, don't ever concider working for or supporting the concept of dark, evil ungodly ways. It is a trap youll never gain from.
