[Intro] (
Drums
kick
in
with
a
steady,
relaxed
one-drop
beat) (
Warm
organ
swells)
Yeah,
yeah
Life
is
a
journey,
we
walk
the
path
We
remember
the
ones
who
lead
the
way
Marshall
Alex
Bade,
man
of
the
land
Rest
easy,
brother
warrior
[Verse 1] Early
morning
sun
rising
over
Vimtim
hills
The
legacy
you
left
is
standing
very
still
Like
a
mighty
oak
tree
rooted
in
the
ground
Your
wisdom
and
your
strength
were
the
best
that
we
found
You
carried
the
weight
with
a
smile
on
your
face
Navigating
life
with
such
rhythm
and
grace
A
son
of
our
land,
a
pillar
of
truth
You
guided
the
elders
and
inspired
the
youths
[Chorus] Marshall
Alex
Bade,
the
great
son
of
our
land
You
held
the
torch
high
with
a
steady
hand
Now
the
work
is
finished,
the
battle
is
won
Rest
on
our
warrior,
beneath
the
golden
sun
Yeah,
you
rest
on,
soldier
of
the
light
Everything
is
gonna
be
alright
[Verse 2] We
see
your
footprint
on
every
single
road
You
lightened
the
burden,
you
shouldered
the
load
No
matter
the
challenge,
you
stood
like
a
wall
You
never
gave
up
and
you
never
did
fall
The
stories
we
tell
will
keep
your
spirit
near
We
look
to
the
stars
and
we
have
no
more
fear
Because
a
man
like
you,
he
never
really
goes
His
energy
flows
where
the
river
goes
[Chorus] Marshall
Alex
Bade,
the
great
son
of
our
land
You
held
the
torch
high
with
a
steady
hand
Now
the
work
is
finished,
the
battle
is
won
Rest
on
our
warrior,
beneath
the
golden
sun
Yeah,
you
rest
on,
soldier
of
the
light
Everything
is
gonna
be
alright
[Bridge] Peace
in
the
valley,
peace
in
the
soul
You
reached
the
destination,
you
fulfilled
the
goal
Lay
down
your
burden,
let
the
music
play
We
celebrate
your
life
in
a
humble
way
One
heart,
one
love,
for
the
path
that
you
paved
For
the
lives
that
you
touched
and
the
grace
that
you
saved
[Verse 3] So
let
the
drums
beat
soft,
let
the
bass
line
roll
A
tribute
of
love
for
a
beautiful
soul
We
keep
your
memory
locked
in
our
chest
Until
the
day
comes
that
we
join
in
your
rest
Keep
shining
down
from
the
heavens
above
Wrapped
in
the
warmth
of
the
people
you
love
Marshall,
oh
Marshall,
your
legacy
remains
Like
the
summer
sun
dancing
in
the
light
of
the
rains
[Chorus] Marshall
Alex
Bade,
the
great
son
of
our
land
You
held
the
torch
high
with
a
steady
hand
Now
the
work
is
finished,
the
battle
is
won
Rest
on
our
warrior,
beneath
the
golden
sun
Yeah,
you
rest
on,
soldier
of
the
light
Everything
is
gonna
be
alright
[Outro] Rest
on,
brother
Rest
on,
our
great
warrior
Alex
Bade,
the
land
remembers
your
name
Yeah,
we
remember,
we
remember (
Fade

with
steady
bass
groove
and
guitar
skank)
