Fight the Power — текст песни (Barenaked Ladies)

Get tough now
Come away for the S
The S one W
Brothers and sisters
Come away for the S
The S one W
On time cause he busta rhymes a hard rhymer
On time cause he busta rhymes a hard rhymer
It`s the flavor, it`s the flavor, it`s the flavor
Life saver
It`s the flavor, it`s the flavor, it`s the flavor
Life saver

Get back cause he whacks the trackq terminator
Get back cause he whacks the tracks terminator

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 you`re missin` y`all
Swingin` while I`m 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

Chorus:
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power (Fight the power)
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power (Fight the power)
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power (Fight the power)
Lemme hear you say
Fight the power (Fight the power)
We`ve 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 you`ve realized the prides arrived
We got to pump the stuff to make us tough
from the heart
It`s A start, a work of art
To revolutionize make a change nothin`s strange
People, people we are the same
No we`re not the same
Cause we don`t know the game
What we need is awareness, we can`t 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
