Well said, staas. A man can see through the memories of others and tales passed down.

Also with rasta songs "I" can often be interpreted as "I and I", referring to all black people, regardless of temporal or spatial individual appearance.

yes you have to hear the song mystic man, he is singing I am a man of the past, living in the present, walking in the future. that means peter knows about time, knows what happend and what will happen.
