Redemption Song
Ole 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 hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song
'Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for this racist system
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our children
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've ever had
Redemption song
'Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for this racist system
'Cause none of them can stop the times
How long shall they kill the children
While we stand aside and look
Well, 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've ever had
Redemption song
'Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song
Redemption song
Mr. slave driver
How do you go on living
When the children are dying
Four hundred years of slavery
And the children are still crying
Redemption song
Mr. Martin Luther King
Mr. Malcolm X
Marcus Garvey
Thomas Sankara
Patrice Lumumba
Kwame Nkrumah
Haile Selassie
Nelson Mandela
Another song of freedom
Another song of freedom
Redemption song
Redemption song
Redemption song
Redemption song
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly

'Cause all I've ever had
