Wyclef Jean - Redemption Song lyrics
[Wyclef Jean - Redemption Song lyrics]
Sold I to the merchant ship
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong by
The hand of the almighty
We struggle in this generation triumphantly
New York City, won't you help me sing
These songs of freedom
Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song, these songs of freedom
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind
Have no fear for atomic energy for none
Of them a cannot stop the time
How long will you kill our prophet
While we stand aside and look, ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfil that book
Brooklyn, help me sing
These songs of freedom
Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song, these songs of freedom
Emancipate yourself from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind
Have no fear for atomic energy for none of
Them they can't a stop for the time
How long will they kill our prophet
While we stand aside and look, ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfil that book
Won't you help me sing
These songs of freedom
Cause all I've ever had
Redemption song, these songs of freedom
A-Ame-rica, God bless America

The home of the brave

New York City
Let me see your hands in the air

Oh yeah god bless Ame-rica
