Redemption Song - Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - Slideshow with lyrics in description below. “We are going to emancipate ourselves from mental slavery because whilst others might free the body, none but ourselves can free the mind. Mind is your only ruler, sovereign. The man who is not able to develop and use his mind is bound to be the slave of the other man who uses his mind ....“ - Marcus Garvey Lyrics to Redemption Song No Kwazulu, no Kwazulu No Bophuthatswana, no Lebowa No Kwazulu, no Kwazulu No Bophuthatswana, no Lebowa Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy For 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 fulfill the book So won’t you help to sing These songs of freedom ’Cause all I ever hear Is redemption song Soldiers march their freedom Out into the city streets And though it seems like a losing battle There can be no retreat So won’t you help to sing These songs of freedom ’Cause all I ever hear Is redemption song Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy For 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 fulfill the book So won’t you help to sing These songs of freedom ’Cause all I ever hear Is redemption song
