The last lyric on the last track of The Wailers first album ‘Burnin’ sings “One fine morning, when my work is over, I will fly away home” 

 

On May 11, 1981, Bob Marley boarded a plane in Germany, doctors having told him there is nothing more they could do, and set flight to return to Jamaica. On the flight he was falling fast, and they had to make an emergency landing in Miami, where he passed. 

But he continued to Jamaica, eventually to Nine Mile where he was born, and now rests atop what is known as Mt. Zion……six feet ABOVE ground, because in his final testament to the struggle, he would not follow the traditions of Babylon and let them keep him under.  
 

One Love. Rastafar I
