my lyricsbox
Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
From the bottom less pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty.
We forward in this generation, triumphantly.

Won't you help to sing
these songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption song
These songs of freedom

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause 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 fulfill the book.

Won't you help to sing
these songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption song

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause 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 fulfill the book.

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
Songs of freedom

All I ever had
Redemption song
Songs of freedom, songs of freedom.

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
From the bottom less pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty.
We forward in this generation, triumphantly.

Won't you help to sing
these songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption song, redemption song
Songs of freedom
