Oh pirates, yes they rob us 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 He fought in this generation Triumphantly Won't you help me sing These songs of freedom 'Cause all i ever had Redemption song Emancipate yourself from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy 'Cause none o' them can stop the time How long will they kill our prophets While we stand around and look? Some say it's just a part of it We got's to fulfill the book Won't you help me sing These songs of freedom 'Cause all i ever had Redemption song
