is Icon in aweken Afrikan from its nature where ever is Buffalo Soldier, dreadlock RastaThere was a
Buffalo Soldier In the heart of America ,Stolen from Africa, brought to America
Fighting on arrival, fighting for survival mean it, when I analyze the stench
To me, it makes a lot of sense, How the dreadlock Rasta was the Buffalo Soldier
And he was taken from Africa, brought to America
If you know your history
Then you would know where you coming from,Then you wouldn't have to ask me
Who the heck do I think I am,

" A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree
without roots". If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life.
Africa for the Africans... at home and abroad!

likewise be no good there." Marcus Mosiah Garvey Jr. ONH"
