Bob Geldof - Redemption Song
Redemption Song
Tekst piosenki:
Sold me to the merchant ships,
Minutes after they took me
From the bottomless pit.
But my hand they had been made strong
By the hand of the Almighty.
As we go forward in our generation
Triumphantly.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
'Cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them will stop our time.
How long will they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
Some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fullfil the book.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
'Cause all we've ever had:
Redemption songs;
All we've ever had:
Redemption songs;

| Ciekawostki: |
Utwór wzywa słuchaczy do wyzwolenia się z mentalnej niewoli, gdyż tylko oni mogą uwolnić swoje umysły. Słowa te są parafrazą przemowy Garvey'a, opublikowanej w 1937 roku w magazynie Black Man. |
