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
And won't you help to [C7]sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all [Em]I ever have
Redemption [C7]songs
Redemption [C7]songs
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind
Have no fear for [Dm7]atomic energy
'Cause none of them [A]can stop the time
How long [Am]shall [Em]they kill our proρhets
While we stand [Bm]aside and [Bm]look?
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got [Fm7]to [C7]fulfill the book
And won't you [A7help to [C7]sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all [Em]I ever have
Redemption [C7]songs
Redemption [C7]songs
Redemption [C7]songs
Old pirates, yes, they ɾob I
Sold I to [C7]the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
And won't you [A7help to [C7]sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all [Em]I ever have
Redemption [C7]songs
Redemption [C7]songs
These songs of freedom
Songs of freedom
