1989 the number another summer get down
Sound of the funky drummer
Music hittin your heart cause I know you got soul
brothers and sisters, hey
Listen if youre missin yall
Swingin while Im singin
Givin whatcha gettin
Knowin what I know
While the black bands sweatin
And the rhythm rhymes rollin
Got to give us what we want
Gotta give us what we need
Our freedom of speech is freedom or death
We got to fight the powers that be
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power
Weve got to fight the powers that be
As the rhythm designed to bounce
What counts is that the rhymes
Designed to fill your mind
Now that youve realized the prides arrived
We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
From the heart
Its a start, a work of art
To revolutionize make a change nothins strange
People, people we are the same
No were not the same
Cause we dont know the game
What we need is awareness, we cant get careless
You say what is this?
My beloved lets get down to business
Mental self defensive fitness
yo bum rush the show
You gotta go for what you know
Make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be
Lemme hear you say…
Fight the power
Elvis was a hero to most
Buddy elvis was a hero to most
Buddy ebsen was a hero to most
Buddy rich was a hero to most
Buddy hackett was a hero to most
Nutty buddy was a hero to most
But he never meant shit to me you
See Im straight up racist that sucker was
Simple and plain
____________ and john wayne
Cause Im black and Im proud
Im ready and hyped plus Im amped
Most of my heroes dont appear on no stamps
Sample a look back you look and find
Nothing but rednecks for 400 years if you check
Dont worry be happy
Was a number one jam
Damn if I say it you can slap me right here

Right on, cmon
What we got to say
Power to the people no delay
To make everybody see
In order to fight the powers that be
fight the power
