Marcus Mosiah Garvey - Get Up And Do

You sit and quarrel all your life,
And blame the moving world at large:
You fail to enter in the strife,
To sail in fortune's happy barge.
Get up my man and do the 'stuff'
That leads to blazing glory's fame:
Hold on, and be like good Macduff,
And damn the man who'd foil your name.

Marcus Mosiah Garvey
