Il testo della Redemption song

Ben Harper

Old pirates yes they rob i
Sold i to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took i
From the bottom less pit

But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the almighty
We forward in this generation triumphantly

All i ever had, is songs of freedom
Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
'cause all i ever had, 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?
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
'cause all i ever had, redemption songs
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?
Yes, some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the book

Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom
'cause all i ever had, redemption songs
All i ever had, redemption songs
These songs of freedom, songs of freedom
