Redemption
SIGMA/DIZTORTION/JACOB BANKS Lyrics

This ain't about your love
This song is not about the love between two people

This is about the lies that we've been told
It's about the falsehoods that have been told to us

This ain't about your freedom (freedom)
It has nothing to do with personal freedom

This is about the future that's unknown
It concerns the unpredictable future

This ain't about forgiveness (forgiveness)
Forgiveness is not the subject of the song

This is about the light between my bones
It explores the inner light within a person's body

This ain't about your sanity (sanity)
The song isn't concerned with sanity or mental health

This is about the things you think you know
It's about challenging one's knowledge and beliefs

For every time I fell down to my knees
Whenever I've been brought to my lowest

Oh, this is redemption, woohoo
This is a moment of redemption and triumph

For every time I shed my blood and tears
For every time I've suffered and cried

So Jericho was coming down, woohoo
Liberation is taking place, just like the fall of Jericho in the Bible

We're gonna burn it down down down, woohoo
The old ways will be destroyed and replaced with something new

For every time I lost my voice
Whenever I was unable to speak up for myself

Oh lord, oh, this is redemption, woohoo
This is a moment of triumph and renewal

This ain't about no history
The past is not relevant to this song

This is for all our stories to be told
It's about sharing everyone's experiences and narratives

This ain't about no victory
Winning is not important to the song's message

This is about the place that we call home
It addresses the importance of one's home and community

And I've heard it all already
The artist is aware of the criticisms that will come their way

They will never stop me
Nothing will hold the artist back

They will never bring us down
No one can defeat the collective spirit of the group

If it's war you know I'm ready
The singer is prepared to fight and defend themselves

There's fire in my belly
The artist is motivated and passionate

So is it love? (redemption, redemption, oh oh oh)
The singer questions whether love is the answer to redemption

So this is redemption (redemption, redemption, oh oh oh)
This is the moment of redemption
