Bob Marley - One Love

Bob Marley → One Love  
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0NentNBRlQ




There is a deeper meaning behind the song than a simple call for unity. I believe that it is about only having one love in your life and how you shouldn't let him/her go whenever you come across "the one". Sometimes it is hard to know, but other times it is quite simple. "One love, One heart, Let's get together and feel all right" This line means a lot to me personally because it's about the two people having one love, and how their hearts, if combined create one heart. A really strong heart that can make it through anything. 

"One Love" is a song that is meant to be happy, and that was written to bring people together. Yes, the meaning is deeper than a simple call for unity, but it is part of the meaning. Unity is a wonderful thing that is found all over the world, but that is more likely found between two lost souls that have finally found eachother. 

"There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation" is such a powerful line. God never sleeps and he knows everything everyone does regardless if they think He doesn't know. No sin can be hidden. Lying. Stealing. Cheating. There are so many sins out there and what Bob Marley wanted to tell his listeners is that they cannot hide from their sins. 
Stealing, in my opinion is the biggest sin of all. Let's say if in a relationship the girl cheats, she steals the boys trust. Trust, as we all know, is gained very hard, but can be lost in the blink of an eye. For her to gain his trust back, she will have to prove to him that she is trustworthyeven more than she did at the beginning. There are so many cases when this has happened, but I believe  that whoever said "Once a cheater, always a cheater" is wrong because people can change, they just have to be reassured that it will be O.K. as long as they do not commit the same act. As long as there is one love, and one heart to keep them going through life. Now the person that got cheated on, well their heart is shattered, but nevertheless it can be picked back up again, and can be healed as long as there is one love and one heart to keep them going. ♥ 


Here are the lyrics: 

One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel all right
Hear the children crying (One love)
Hear the children crying (One heart)
Sayin', "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
Sayin', "Let's get together and feel all right."
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Let them all pass all their dirty remarks (One love)
There is one question I'd really love to ask (One heart)
Is there a place for the hopeless sinner
Who has hurt all mankind just to save his own?
Believe me

One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel all right
As it was in the beginning (One love)
So shall it be in the end (One heart)
Alright, "Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
"Let's get together and feel all right."
One more thing

Let's get together to fight this Holy Armageddon (One love)
So when the Man comes there will be no, no doom (One song)
Have pity on those whose chances grow thinner
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation

Sayin', "One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel all right."
I'm pleading to mankind (One love)
Oh, Lord (One heart) Whoa.

"Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
Let's get together and feel all right.

"Give thanks and praise to the Lord and I will feel all right."
Let's get together and feel all right.
