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

Will we stand aside and look

Yes some say it's just a part of it

We've got to fulfill the book.

Repeat Chorus and say Redemption Songs once more.

Old pirates, yes they rob I,

Sold I to the merchant ships.

Minutes after they took I, from the bottomless pit.

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.
