Old pirates, yes, they rob I;
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
= VERSE
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand was made strong
By the 'and of the Almighty.
We forward in this generation
triumphantly.
Won't you help to sing = PRE CHORUS
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have: = CHORUS
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.
Emancipate your selves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them can stop the time. = VERSE
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 de book.
Won't you help to sing = PRE CHORUS
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have:
= CHORUS
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.
[Guitar break] = Em, C, D. x4 (SAME PATTERN AS CHORUS)|
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our mind.
Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy,
Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time. = LAST VERSE
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 de book.

Dese songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever had:

All I ever had: = LAST CHORUS
Redemption songs:
These songs of freedom,
