Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I, from the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong, By the hand of the Almighty
We forward this generation triumphantly...
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom?
Because all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery!
None but ourselves can free our minds!
Have no fear for atomic energy
Because none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets, while we stand aside and look?
Some say it's just a part of it...We've got to fulfil the Book
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom?
Because all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery!
None but ourselves can free our minds!
Have no fear for atomic energy
Because none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets, while we stand aside and look?
Some say it's just a part of it...We've got to fulfil the Book...
Won't you help to sing, another song of freedom?
Because all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
