What Kind A Power We Got? Lyrics - Public Enemy

Drayton - Young - Record 

Yo another day 

Another 49 cents 

Mr., Mr., why you always tryin to take all our money 

Because I am the government 

And you have to pay 

Stop tryin to take our money 

Yo, you gotta bust this 

We want justice 

From public enemy number one 

To cant trust this 

Like F Jim or Hyatt 

Because we're sick and fuckin tired 

Of being mistreated by the undefeated 

Power to the seat that cant be beat 

Probably gone is the head that make Clinton defeat 

Do all the talkin 

Plus crooked walkin 

Blind to the fact 

That the enemy is stalking 

Ways for days 

Search United States quite 

Were not a full power 

Cause the racial riot 

In my neighborhood 

We attempt to kill each other 

Politics said fuck power to the brother 

Be strong be righteous 

Dont be no sinister 

I got the word from bro. minister (minister) 

Farrakhan speaks 

And so does Muhammad 

The days of Ramagon is 

Protect you can harm it 

My statement is the fact 

To the highest degrees 

Flavor works this style, yo cant touch me 

What kind of power we got 

Soul power (8X) 

Bring it on (I know you got soul) 

Goin on it get it 

Gotta get it on 

Goin on it get it 

Gonna get it on (4X) 

Yo, some seek stardom 

And forgot all about Harlem 

Yo, fugess 

Rock the house! 

Now I dont know 

But tell me what you gonna do 

When the ending of time comes near 

What ever you do 

It's gotta be funky 

I am not tryin 

To put your life in full of fear 

By the favor skies 

We are flying 

Truth we be buying 

To buy out all the lying 

How you livin 

Were you livin 

Were you livin 

It aint got to be like that 

By doing the givin 

It was your own choice 

Scratched up your Rolls Royce 

Every dum friend you had 

Was glad to rejoice 

And turned into a nut 

Trying to make the pockets fatter 

One shoot in the head 

Everybody scatter 

The worlds gonna 

Catch on fire 

A funeral buyer 

Is a hard heads people desire 

Every night you tryer 

You turn into a cryer 

Who was just in bed 

Thinkin higher, higher 

Friends will always move 

Till you get the bob wire 

Ever common law gets a flat tire 

What kind a power we got 

Soul power (4X) 

What kind a power you got 

Soul power (2X) 

What kind a power we got 

Soul power 

Take me on 

Goin on it get it 

Gotta get it on 

Goin on it get it 

Gonna get in on (4X) 

You check this out 

My partner Chuck D 

Got all the ozs of knowledge, wisdom and understanding 

A, yo Chuck 

Let 'em know why you the 

Prophet of rap 

Kick that shit Chuck 

Some people, people 

Dont like the way Flavor walk 

Come on we want all the people to check it 

Out and listen to it good listen to the man 

That's my partner partner 

Some people, people 

Don't like the way the Flavor Flav talk 

But ladies and gentlemen

This my main man throwing down 

What kind a power we got
