John Legend
Redemption Song (Bob Marley cover)
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 had, 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
Some say it s just a part of it
We ve got to fullfill the book
Won t you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
Redemption songs

While we stand aside and look
Some say it s just a part of it
We ve got to fullfill the book
Won t you help to sing, these songs of freedom
Cause all I ever had, redemption songs
