#01 REGGAE- REDEMPTION SONG

Por Marlos Arguelles

Redemption Song

Old 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 ever have:

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

Huh, 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 have:

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs!

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery

None but ourselves can free our mind

Oh, have no fear for atomic energy,

'Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a-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!
