By The People; For The People movie - (RED)emption Song lyrics

rate me

Old pirates, yes, they rob I;<br>

Sold I to the merchant ships,<br>

Minutes after they took I<br>

From the bottomless pit.<br>

But my hand was made strong<br>

By the hand of the all mighty.<br>

We forward in this generation<br>

Triumphantly.<br>

Won't you help me sing<br>

these songs of freedom<br>

Are all I ever have:<br>

Redemption songs<br>

Redemption songs<br>

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;<br>

None but ourselves can free our minds.<br>

Have no fear for atomic energy,<br>

'Cause none of them can stop the time<br>

How long shall they kill our prophets,<br>

While we stand aside and look<br>

Oh! Some say it's just a part of it:<br>

We've got to fulfill de book.<br>

Won't you help me sing<br>

these songs of freedom<br>

Are all I ever have:<br>

Redemption songs<br>

Redemption songs<br>

Redemption songs<br>

(Guitar break)<br>

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;<br>

None but ourselves can free our mind.<br>

Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy,<br>

'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a-the time<br>

How long shall they kill our prophets,<br>

While we stand aside and look?<br>

Yes, some say it's just a part of it:<br>

We've got to fulfil the book.<br>

Won't you help to sing<br>

These songs of freedom? -<br>

Are all I ever had:<br>

Redemption songs -<br>

All I ever had:<br>

Redemption songs:<br>

These songs of freedom,<br>

Songs of freedom.<br>
