Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 in this generation triumphantly
[Verse 2]
So won't you help to sing these songs of freedom
They're all I ever had
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
[Verse 3]
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy, yeah
'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 fullfill the book
[Verse 4]
So won't you help to sing these songs of freedom
They're all I ever had
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
[Verse 5]
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy, yeah
'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 fullfill the book
[Verse 6]
So won't you help to sing these songs of freedom
They're all I ever had
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
