People
Would it please you
Would it ease you
If I act like you some more
If you could be me for a day
All the hate that you would face
It would break you down for sure
How about the feeling when they hold you down
Imagine being watched when you walk around
watch your mouth
You can never be mad
Just move on
Life's not that bad
But a black mans down and there's no excuse
tell me what about the ones who didn't make the news
I'm so tired of the politricks
Hands up high cuz we must resist and I say
People (people) wake up and keep marching on
Cause we ain't got no time to waste
I said People (people) tell me why the love is gone
We've got to find another way
Whos got the power
We got the power
Whos got the power
We got the power
Yeah yeah
will you fight with me
Or Will you fight for me
If I ask to change the world
If you could hear the mothers cry
When their only child has died
Will shake you to your core
Tell me what about the brothers they keep locking up
Black crime long time they ain't getting out
A Brothers gone
Gone Without a fight
Shot him down
Down In broad daylight
Now the Cameras on and there's no excuse
And what about the ones who didn't make the news
I'm so tired of the politricks
Hands up high cuz we must resist and I say
People (people) wake up and keep marching on
Cause we ain't got no time to waste
I said People (people) tell me why the love is gone
We've got to find another way
Whos got the power
We got the power
Whos got the power
We got the power
Yeah yeah
Whos got the power
We got the power
Yeah yeah
Whos got the power
We got the power
Yeah yeah
