His greatness has been lost by the current generations.
Speaking truth to power.
I submit some Dudely lyrics from "It's Alright Ma(I'm only Bleeding)"
Quote
For them that must obey authority
That they do not respect in any degree
Who despise their jobs, their destinies
Speak jealously of them that are free
Cultivate their flowers to be
Nothing more than something they invest in
While some on principles baptized
To strict party platform ties
Social clubs in drag disguise
Outsiders they can freely criticize
Tell nothing except who to idolize
And then say God bless him
While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society?s pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he?s in
