power lyrics
[verse 1: earthgang]
n+gga be pressed to claim a street with a white man name
i pulled up to put you up on game
what’s your focus? what you doin’? what you want out this life?
i want power, can’t never be satisfied with fame
i’m just a man of the people
from ’round the way like the beatles
i been exposed to new levels
i’m always tryna do better
roll with my roadies like cheadle
you say the top can get lonely, i say the bottom is lethal
i want the crown, i’m medieval
see us gettin’ this money, they still don’t see us as equals
they know that we don’t control sh+t
comin’ up in small doses
sometimes i sit back and roll up and i think of my heroes and so it goes
gain the world, lose your soul
skull and bones, puffy combs
too many n+ggas dead and gone when they just got on
and i’d be lyin’ if i said it’s nothin’ wrong
sometimes i sit back and roll up and i just think of my heroes and so it goes
gain the world, lose your soul
skull and bones, puffy combs

[chorus: ceelo green]
power, power, power
power, power, power
[verse 2: earthgang]
put down your god and pick up your bible (yeah)
put down your picket signs and pick up your rifle (brap+brap+brap+brap)
messages conflictin’, twistin’ on my mental (yeah)
love on your enemies, don’t you trust your kinfolk (ayy, f+ck them n+ggas over there, man, he always need somethin’, he always askin’ for money)
family feudin’ on american dreamboats
top of the food chain what them people k!ll for (uh)
down on your knees and pray up to god or
stand on your feet and rise above all, uh
as a child, i was miseducated
i grew up praisin’ power, guns, drugs, misogynation
fire inside, blazin’, constantly wakin’
me and my demons engagin’ in conversation on how we finna get paid
but through it all, i placed my hands on my b+lls, that’s a power grab (yeah)
they see a black man shining, they’ll shoot him down fast
f+ck ceos takin’ your shows and firin’ you at night like nick, that’s a cannon blast
they’ll try to undercut your ass, buy out your cast
say you crazy as h+ll, chappelle status
ceos takin’ your shows and firin’ you at night like nick, that’s a cannon blast

[chorus: ceelo green, nick cannon]
power, power, power (sh+t, that sh+t powerful right there, haha)
power, power, power (you know what’s the wild sh+t? i just named my daughter powerful)
power, power, power (and n+ggas thought i was crazy for that, ayy, call me crazy)
power, power, power (’cause n+ggas that think they crazy enough to change the world the ones that actually do that sh+t)
yo, i got you (powerful)
[verse 3: ceelo green]
whether what i do, you into or not (not)
i done been to the top (top)
and i done been through a lot (a lot)
and if i offend you or not (not)
i might convince you to stop (stop)
see, i done been in the room (room)
watch others bend and assume (assume)
and i got friends in the tomb (ooh)
boy, i done been in the back (back)
and i have witnessed the axe (axe)
what kind of business is that? (that)
a slave master’s business is black (is black)
but i have listened
i done been in a compromising position
i done been in they pockets to get on the playlist, i done been in the system
but i hit different (different)
this industry sh+t different (different)
it’s a major motion picture budget, it’s lit different (different)
my wrist different (different)
and every woman i’m with’s different (different)
try goin’ back to the old you sometime and you’ll miss different (different)
but the corporate is morbid
they wanna put a mark in your forehead
a quake in their handshake
but you fake for the fan’s sake
but i’m better than average
and i deserve to have this
and i mean mug the men in the suits and ties looking at me like i’m a bad b+tch
but i never lost my religion, so i’m lucky
when a lot of these other artists right here thinkin’ to themselves, “d+mn, why don’t n0body wanna f+ck me?”
i’m so glad that i’m ugly
boy, stop, i’m beautiful
these motherf+ckers’ll k!ll you, be in the front row of your funeral
just want you to know
remain a man every minute of your hour
a lot of these motherf+ckers be all plugs with no power
[chorus: ceelo green, nick cannon]
power, power, power (yeah, so let the words of my mouth and the meditation in my heart be acceptable in the sight of the most high, yeah)
power, power, power (pretty much all i’m sayin’ is i’ma do what i can and i’ma let god do what i can’t)
power, power, power (sh+t, i’m just tryna make it ‘fore the light change and i fall off like a bike chain, it’s a minor setback for a major comeback, sh+t, we do everything all black)
power, power, power (we own that sh+t, we reppin’ for all blacks, that’s why they had to give my sh+t back, powerful)
