Letra de POWER - EARTHGANG

(Feat. CeeLo Green, Nick Cannon)

Nigga be pressed to claim a street with a white man name

I pulled up to put you up on game

What's your focus? What you doin'? What you want out this life?

I want power, can't never be satisfied with fame

I'm just a man of the people

From 'round the way like the Beatles

I been exposed to new levels

I'm always tryna do better

Roll with my roadies like Cheadle

You say the top can get lonely, I say the bottom is lethal

I want the crown, I'm medieval

See us gettin' this money, they still don't see us as equals

They know that we don't control shit

Comin' up in small doses

Sometimes I sit back and roll up and I think of my heroes and so it goes

Gain the world, lose your soul

Skull and bones, Puffy Combs

Too many niggas dead and gone when they just got on

And I'd be lyin' if I said it's nothin' wrong

Sometimes I sit back and roll up and I just think of my heroes and so it goes

Gain the world, lose your soul

Skull and bones, Puffy Combs

Power, power, power

Power, power, power

Put down your God and pick up your Bible (Yeah)

Put down your picket signs and pick up your rifle (Brap-brap-brap-brap)

Messages conflictin', twistin' on my mental (Yeah)

Love on your enemies, don't you trust your kinfolk (Ayy, fuck them niggas over there, man, he always need somethin', he always askin' for money)

Family feudin' on American dreamboats

Top of the food chain what them people kill for (Uh)

Down on your knees and pray up to God or

Stand on your feet and rise above all, uh

As a child, I was miseducated

I grew up praisin' power, guns, drugs, misogynation

Fire inside, blazin', constantly wakin'

Me and my demons engagin' in conversation on how we finna get paid

But through it all, I placed my hands on my balls, that's a power grab (Yeah)

They see a Black man shining, they'll shoot him down fast

Fuck CEOs takin' your shows and firin' you at night like Nick, that's a cannon blast

They'll try to undercut your ass, buy out your cast

Say you crazy as hell, Chappelle status

CEOs takin' your shows and firin' you at night like Nick, that's a cannon blast

Power, power, power (Shit, that shit powerful right there, haha)

Power, power, power (You know what's the wild shit? I just named my daughter Powerful)

Power, power, power (And niggas thought I was crazy for that, ayy, call me crazy)

Power, power, power ('Cause niggas that think they crazy enough to change the world the ones that actually do that shit)

Yo, I got you (Powerful)

Whether what I do, you into or not (Not)

I done been to the top (Top)

And I done been through a lot (A lot)

And if I offend you or not (Not)

I might convince you to stop (Stop)

See, I done been in the room (Room)

Watch others bend and assume (Assume)

And I got friends in the tomb (Ooh)

Boy, I done been in the back (Back)

And I have witnessed the axe (Axe)

What kind of business is that? (That)

A slave master's business is black (Is black)

But I have listened

I done been in a compromising position

I done been in they pockets to get on the playlist, I done been in the system

But I hit different (Different)

This industry shit different (Different)

It's a major motion picture budget, it's lit different (Different)

My wrist different (Different)

And every woman I'm with's different (Different)

Try goin' back to the old you sometime and you'll miss different (Different)

But the corporate is morbid

They wanna put a mark in your forehead

A quake in their handshake

But you fake for the fan's sake

But I'm better than average

And I deserve to have this

And I mean mug the men in the suits and ties looking at me like I'm a bad bitch

But I never lost my religion, so I'm lucky

When a lot of these other artists right here thinkin' to themselves, "Damn, why don't nobody wanna fuck me?"

I'm so glad that I'm ugly

Boy, stop, I'm beautiful

These motherfuckers'll kill you, be in the front row of your funeral

Just want you to know

Remain a man every minute of your hour

A lot of these motherfuckers be all plugs with no power

Power, power, power (Yeah, so let the words of my mouth and the meditation in my heart be acceptable in the sight of the most high, yeah)

Power, power, power (Pretty much all I'm sayin' is I'ma do what I can and I'ma let God do what I can't)

Power, power, power (Shit, I'm just tryna make it 'fore the light change and I fall off like a bike chain, it's a minor setback for a major comeback, shit, we do everything all black)

Power, power, power (We own that shit, we reppin' for all Blacks, that's why they had to give my shit back, powerful)
