=========================================
Old pirates, yes they rob I
and sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
from the bottomless pits
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 songs
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?
ooh
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?
cause all I ever have
redemption songs
redemption songs
redemption songs
Emancipate yourselves
from mental slavery
None but ourselves
can free our mind
Have no fear for
atomic energy
cause none of them a
can a stop a the time
How long shall they
kill our prophets
while we stand aside and look
Yes, 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?
cause all I ever had
redemption songs
all I ever had
redemption songs
these songs of freedom
songs of freedom
