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 and of the almighty.
|
We forward in this generation
|
Triumphantly.
|
Wont 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 its just a part of it:
|
Weve got to fulfil de book.
|
|
Wont you help to sing
|
These songs of freedom? -
|
cause all I ever have:
|
Redemption songs;
|
Redemption songs;
|
Redemption songs.
