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)

Got all the ozs of knowledge, wisdom and understanding
