| This is revolution shit
|
| Uh, yeah, c’mon and get down
|
| Uh, yeah, c’mon and get down
|
| Uh, yeah, hey
|
| The year is 2020, the number
|
| Another summer, get down
|
| Sound of the funky drummer
|
| Music hitting' the heart 'cause I know you got soul
|
| Brothers and sisters
|
| The Information Age
|
| Got 'em seein' what’s really wrong with these racist days
|
| I honor the strong and pity the weak
|
| Your thoughts run your life, be careful what you think
|
| Haiti beat France, a century, seventeen
|
| Salute Toussaint and Dessalines
|
| And I do love France, know what I mean?
|
| It’s the system I’m talkin', nobody’s agreein'
|
| They say, «Suicide,» when dead bodies are swingin'
|
| Cowards are huntin' black men, that’s what I’m seein'
|
| How many Tulsas have been burnt down?
|
| And once Central Park was a thrivin' black town
|
| Yo, Chuck, I’m fightin' the power right now
|
| Thanks to you, Flav and P-E, puttin' it down
|
| Puttin' your life on the line so I could rap now
|
| The next generation still singin', «Fight the Power»
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power, we got to fight the powers that be
|
| Police think they reign 6ix9ine over the law (Yeah)
|
| When they give us short sticks but we really need a long
|
| To the boys in the hood, duckin' bullets and batons
|
| From boys in the hood, triple Ks on they arm
|
| Four fingers on my palm screamin', «Fight»
|
| Change the policy, before I buy back our property
|
| You love Black Panther but not Fred Hampton
|
| Word to the Howards and the Aggies and the Hamptons
|
| They book us, won’t book us, I’m Booker
|
| T. Washington, George killed, for twenty
|
| Think about it (Think), that’s two thousand pennies
|
| The value of black life the cost of goin' to Wendy’s
|
| For a four-quarter burger, ended in murder
|
| Fight for Breonna and the pain of her mother, gotta
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power, we got to fight the powers that be
|
| Yeah, generations just how long we been at war
|
| The revolution on all platforms
|
| You break a man’s mind in his back
|
| Yo, solidarity is what I’m wearin' all black for
|
| For comrades who done fought without me
|
| It’s not to try and change y’all thoughts about me
|
| Or to redirect your reports about me
|
| Dear white people, you should take a course about me
|
| 'Cause, is it the long ding-a-ling? |
| Four-finger ring?
|
| The sciences and the arts, the songs we can sing?
|
| I really wanna know why y’all so scared
|
| Prolly 'cause the promised land, we almost there
|
| But look, I think of images that fuel my youth
|
| Been influenced by Craig Hodges and Abdul-Rauf
|
| Examples like Olympic, Black Power salutes
|
| To Panther troops, I saw as I pursued my truth
|
| If racism is the cancer, Black Thought’s the answer
|
| Gotta get up off the back porch, emancipate your minds
|
| Get your bodies back from ransom (C'mon)
|
| And all black hands up for the anthem
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power, we got to fight the powers that be
|
| Yo, yo, check this out, man
|
| Bring that beat back, man (Bring that beat back)
|
| In two, three, four, hit it
|
| People, people, stronger than this evil
|
| Smashin' your power structure, melanin royal, regal
|
| System designed to kill and unprotect
|
| Worldwide, hit the streets just to get some respect
|
| Our fight and our rights for freedom will never waver
|
| But justice Breonna Taylor, salute Chuck and Flava
|
| Feel the same anger since Radio Raheem died
|
| Black power to the people, push forward, pride
|
| Fight power like it’s the opp, though
|
| Born to fight, I made it off the block though
|
| Thought he had a gun and he was black, that’s the combo
|
| The police killed George havin' a convo (George)
|
| They killed Malcolm X, they killed Doctor King (Doctor King)
|
| They gave us guns and dope, they wanna stop our kings
|
| They tryna erase our history, stop and think
|
| History class ain’t tell us 'bout Juneteeth
|
| Cops don’t give a damn about a negro
|
| Pull the trigger, kill a negro, he’s a hero
|
| Fuck livin' life on welfare
|
| The last one who cared was Obamacare
|
| Round twelve, nose kinda bloody, gotta keep fightin'
|
| Trump flew to North Korea, they respect violence
|
| If you ain’t tryna have your city on fire
|
| Put some respect on our name, we come from gold and diamonds
|
| Fight the power (Fight the power)
|
| Fight the power, we got to fight the powers that be
|
| Yo, yo
|
| Elvis was a hero to most
|
| But he never meant shit to me you see
|
| Straight up racist that sucker was, simple and plain
|
| Motherfuck him and John Wayne
|
| 'Cause I’m Black and I’m proud
|
| I’m ready, I’m hyped plus I’m amped
|
| Most of my heroes don’t appear on no stamps
|
| Sample a look back you look and find
|
| Nothing but rednecks for four hundred years if you check
|
| «Don't Worry, Be Happy» was a number one jam
|
| Damn if I say it you can slap me right here
|
| (Get it) Let’s get this party started right
|
| Right on, c’mon
|
| What we got to say
|
| Power to the people no delay
|
| Make everybody see
|
| In order to fight the powers that be |
