Chris Cornell: Redemption Song (Bob Marley Cover) - Tekst piosenki

Oh pirates, yes, they rob I;
Sold I to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit.

My hand was made strong
By the hand of the all mighty.
We fought in this generation
Triumphantly.

So won't you help me sing
these songs of freedom
Are 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
Oh! 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
Are all I ever have:
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

(Guitar break)

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our mind.
Oh, 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 said it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfill the book.

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
Are all I ever had:
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Are all I ever had:
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
