Artist: Public Enemy
Album:  Fear Of A Black Planet
Song:   Power To The People

        And you thought the beat slowed down
        Power to the people
        Get on up, get into it, get involved
        Feel the bass as the cut revolves
        To the brothers wit the 808
        Like I said before PE got a brand new funk
        Turn it up, boom the trunk, yeah
        Internationally known on the microphone
        Makin' sure the brothers will never leave you alone
        To my sisters
        Sisters yes we missed ya
        Let's get it together make a nation
        You can bet on it, don't sleep on it
        'Cause the troops cold jeepin' it pumpin
        (Power to the people)
        Turn us loose we shall overcome
        They say where you get that bass from
        Hey ohh people, people as we continue on
        Come along, sings this song, are you ready for '91
        Rhythm nation pump that bass an
        We like to know from Chicago, New York and LA
        Are y'all ready, cause the plans in the jam
        And we're ready to roll yo y'all got to tell me
        Are y'all read read to go c'mon
        (Power to the people)
        Had to kick it like that as we roll as one
        One under the sun, to all the cities and the side
        Stateside and the whole wide
        There it is
        P-e-a-c-e 1991
