You've got to stand up, stay strong start movin' in the right direction |
|
Don't wait, too long, for people promising divine intervention |
|
19 Nine three, now I'm taking matters into my own hands |
|
So fast, I can't see |
|
A revolution is the only way that we can change change change |
|
I wanna fight the power |
|
Well it's hard times, white lines, kids of nine gettin' down with gun crime |
|
War zones, no homes, ain't it time we gave the dog a bone |
|
Say brothers, sisters, step up and put yourself in the picture |
|
This time you know a revolution if the only way that we can change change change |
|
I want to fight the power |
|
Question, answer, shake your hand and smile for the camera |
|
But it's no good you should spend time in your neighbourhood |
|
Where black kids, white kids |
|
Now you're working overtime to be a crack kid |
|
No job, no cash, a revolution is the only way that we can change change change |
|
I wanna fight the power |
|
Still we don't seem to understand we need a revolution |
|
Everybody wants a revolution |
|
Who is, this man, I'm having trouble finding out where I'm coming from |
|
Preconceptions, it's eternal human infection one chance |
|
Learn how you're gonna change the habit of a lifetime my soul, concerned |
|
That revolution is the only way that we can change change change |
|
I wanna fight the power |
|
Higher, higher, now we're gonna learn to fight the power |
|
Sunshine, new day, I only know how to get the right way |
|
Faster, stronger, I help my brother and my soul lives longer |
|
Blinded, I can't see |
|
That revolution is the only way that we can change change change |
|
I wanna fight the power |
|
No doubt, in time, everything is sweet sunshine |
|
But in the meantime, mankind, is having trouble where to draw the line |
|
We still don't, respect, and yet I thought we had intellect |
|
Sometimes I think the music is the only hope we have for revolution |
|
Still we don't seem to understand we need a revolution |
|
Everybody wants a revolution |
