Liberation theology very simple philosophy
Free your body and your mind gonna follow
Liberation theology split with the church aristocracy
You're with the oppressed or you're with the oppressor

Time gonna make you ready willing and able
We're still clutching crumbs falling from the master's table
Change gonna come as soon as we wake up
A little old fashioned passion just don't seem like enough

You've come a long way humanity
Funny 'cause it sure still look like slavery to me
I guess civilization just ain't what it used to be
Liberation inevitably put your bible down brother and listen to me
Come the revolution where are you gonna be?

Sign says promised land straight ahead
Ain't gonna find it looking up I said
Change gonna come if we take it
A little old fashioned passion ain't gonna make it

I need a little help this evening
Can I get a witness
Help me brother - help me sister raise your hand
I'm calling your name

I don't know if there is a heaven
Gonna find out soon enough
If we could help each other right now
Maybe heaven wouldn't matter so much

I'm gonna help my brother
I'm gonna help my sister
Maybe somebody gonna help me

You don't need the Bible, Torah or Koran
To know right from wrong
And what side you're gonna be on
