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 eight oh eight

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 oh 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
