public enemy’s “fight the power” - karanjanoumbacrews lyrics

[produced by the bomb squad]

[intro]
yet our best trained, best educated, best equipped, best prepared troops refuse to fight. as a matter of fact, it’s safe to say that they would rather switch than fight

[alt. intro]
w-e-l-o-v-e 108 fm

[verse 1]
1989 the number another summer (get down)
sound of the funky drummer
music hitting your heart cause i know you got soul
(brothers and sisters, hey)
listen if you’re missing y’all
swinging while i’m singing
giving whatcha getting
knowing what i know
while the black bands sweating
and the rhythm rhymes rolling
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
lemme hear you say
fight the power

[hook]
fight the power
we’ve got to fight the powers that be

[verse 2]
as the rhythm designed to bounce
what counts is that the rhymes
designed to fill your mind
now that you’ve realized the pride’s 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 nothing’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 for what you know
make everybody see, in order to fight the powers that be
lemme hear you say
fight the power

[hook]

[verse 3]
elvis was a hero to most
but he never meant sh-t to me you see
straight up racist that sucker was
simple and plain
mother f-ck him and john wayne
cause i’m black and i’m proud
i’m ready and hyped plus i’m amped
most of my heroes don’t appear on no stamps
sample a look back you look and find
nothing but rednecks for 400 years if you check
don’t worry be happy
was a number one jam
d-mn if i say it you can slap me right here
(get it) lets get this party started right
right on, c’mon
what we got to say
power to the people no delay
to make everybody see
in order to fight the powers that be

[hook]
