Maxi Priest

Marcus

In your struggle for love

Hate struck you down

But in so many hearts

You're still around

You freed so many souls

From the depths of despair

But we will never forget

The burdens you had to bare

(2x)

Oh Marcus we love you

You never shy from the things you had to do

Strength and courage pulled many through yeah

Oh boy

Paving a different way

Was the order of the day

And I'm so glad to say

Your teachings are here to stay

The wicked cast you aside

But your missions have never died

It lives on and on and on

You can't stop the ??? Marc, oh no

You achieved the best of a bad situation

Gave hope to the people of the nation

Yes you did

You achieved the best of a bad situation

Gave hope to the people of the nation

Yes you did, yes you did

Scattered all over the place, living in disgrace

The people have lost their ways

Their minds have gone astray

Sheer hysteria

Told us look to Africa

To be our rightful home again

Look to Africa

Boy, Marc, you do oo
