I think Mishka Said It best with....

I throw my line into the sea, So many things that you want I and I to be, I saw some seeds in the soil Cause I don't wanna see life spoil... ... Everyone need to be free, Got to make freedom by totality, Remember your roots, where you're goin' Remember your roots, the places you've been And all the times we've been together And all the times we've been as one.
