Here is a great live of Crazy Baldhead where Bob is literally telling us "Your running away, but you can't run away from yourself [...] got to face reality"
Just listen to the lyrics, and remember Bob is talking to YOU even if you have hairs !

"No chains around my feet,
But I'm not free, oh-ooh!
I know I am bound here in captivity"

In that song, Bob explains us that we are not free, even if we are not in jail and think we are free...
The only real freedom we can really experience comes once we free our minds (stop thinking when not needed) and truely live the present moment that is given to us.

"why, why these people who want to do so much good, for everyone, who call themselves governments and this and that, why them say you must not use the herb? you see? they say no you mus'nt use it you mus'nt use it, cause it make you rebel............ against what? against men who want to make you think that you need material things and them want to captivate your mind til they say ' well you have to work and we'll put you on pension and we'll keep it all!"'.

Yeah, but even tho I agree with this and I like the herb, Bob Marley is not really talking about it in his songs.
He said "none but ourselves can free our minds", not "nothing but the herb can free our minds"
