Elisa - Redemption Song lyrics

rate me

(Bob Marley)

Old pirates yes they rob I

Sold I to the merchant ships

Minute after they took I

from the bottomless pit

But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the almighty

And we'll forward in this generation

triumphantly

Won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom

These songs of freedom

All I ever had, yeah

Redemption songs

Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery

None but ourselves can free our minds

I 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

Some say it's just a part of it

And we got to fulfil the book

But won't you help to sing

Songs of freedom

These songs of freedom

All I ever had

Is just redemption songs

Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery

None but ourselves can free our minds

I 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

(While we stand, while we stand aside)

Some say it's just a part of it

We've got to fulfill the book

But won't you help to sing

These songs of freedom

These songs of freedom

These songs of freedom

These songs of freedom

Redemption songs

Songs of freedom

Just songs of freedom

Redemption songs

Songs of freedom

Songs of freedom
