“We were recently introduced to the talent of Lymie Murray and was immediately impressed with the powerful lyrical content of his songs and how well they suited our mission to transform the lives of young people in Jamaica”, says Dream Jamaica organisation founder, Shemiele Dabriel.
Imbuing throughout the melody the voice of popular American motivational speaker Les Brown, ‘One Way’, is a powerful thesis about ambition and setting goals, perseverance, breaking down barriers to progress and the power of achievement.
The song, also featuring entertainer, Jah Thunda of Capleton’s David House crew, laments the rise of crime and violence and the danger of young people living only to survive: “War couldn’t be love. Hate couldn’t be faith, Grudge couldn’t be love; Get it out the place”, raps Jah Thunder “The idea is of the song is to encourage young people especially to recognise that despite their circumstances, ‘it is possible to achieve, but it is also good to take time to help and nurture each other. One hand must wash the other. This is how we become triumphant. There is no space for lack of self-belief or for negativity and selfishness”, says Lymie Murray.
“Whatever your goal is, you want think bad enough to go out and fight for it. To work night and day for it; to give up your time, your peace and your sleep for it”, says Les Brown in the opening lines of the melody.
Dream Jamaica is a non-profit organisation focused on creating and providing transformative opportunities for young Jamaicans to accomplish their educational and professional dreams and goals. Having winning attitudes and the correct behaviours and values is essential their success.
Lymie Murray’s ‘One Way’ is thus an appropriate anthem which reinforces the idea of hardwork and effort, the importance of having a positive attitude and the necessity of taking chances and seizing opportunities. After all, as Les Brown asserts – “If you cannot grow, you cannot become your best; If you cannot become your best, you cannot be happy”. In other words, “Know what your goals are; reach for them, says Lymie Murray.
Lymie Murray is officially recognised as a Dream Jamaica Partner and preferred entertainer. The talented reggae singer has also accepted an invitation to mentor a student who wishes to pursue a career in music.
