Redemption Song

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
From the bottom less pit.
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

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 songs

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 had
Redemption songs
'Cause all I ever had
