I Am A Man Lyrics

Haya, oh, Haya oh, Haya!

I know a man of Africa

For many years he was locked away

Without a hope, without a prayer

He said, Father, Father, why do they punish me

He said, Mother, Mother, why do they silence we

What have we so wrong as a people done

He said, I, am a man

He said, I, breathe and bleed just like you

I'm a man, singing my Redemption song

Redemption song

Haya, oh, Haya oh, Haya!

I know a man of America

Although he's gone, his word lives on

For to all he said, I have a dream

He said, "brother, brother, why the violence?"

He said, "sister, sister, where is our innocence?"

"Why do we judge we, by the skin we're in?"

He said, I, am a man

He said, I, breathe and bleed just like you

I'm a man, singing my Redemption song

Redemption song

Tell me how, how could one look at another one

Not see a human one, not see that we all are one

That's why today, we must stand, we must say

Haya, oh! I, am a man

He said, I, breathe and bleed just like you

I'm a man, singing my Redemption song

Redemption song

Haya, oh!

Singing my Redemption song

Redemption song

Haya, oh! I, am a man

He said, I, breathe and bleed just like you

I'm a man, singing my Redemption song

Redemption song

Haya, oh! I, am a man

He said, I, breathe and bleed just like you

I'm a man, singing my Redemption song

Redemption song
