What is this quote? (2:19) "When we ? this land, we walk for one reason, the reason is to try to help another man think for himself, the music of our art is roots music..." The rest I can't make out that well.

Anyway, amazing quote, amazing tune.

Sample of Misty In Roots: “When we tread this land we walk for one reason, to try to help another man think for himself. The music of our heart is roots music, music which recalls history because without the knowledge of history you can’t determine your own destiny. Music about the present because if you’re not conscious of your present, you’re like a cabbage in this society. Music which tells about the future, and the judgment which is to come...”
