Oh pirates, yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pitBut my aim was made strong
By the hands of the almighty
We fought in this generation
TriumphantlyWon't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever hadRedemption song
Redemption songEmancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the timeHow long shall we kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfill the bookWon't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
It's all I ever hadRedemption song
Redemption song
Redemption songEmancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the timeHow long must we kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look
Some say it's just a part of it
They've got to fulfill the bookI wanna say
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever hadRedemption songAll I ever had
Redemption song
All I ever had
Redemption songThese songs of freedom
These songs of freedom
These songs of freedom
These songs of freedomRedemption song
These songs of freedom
