The Power of Equality
[00:13.93] I've got a soul that cannot sleep
[00:16.05] At night when something just ain't right
[00:18.72] Blood red but without sight
[00:20.59] Exploding egos in the night
[00:23.25] Mix like sticks of dynamite
[00:25.10] Red black or white, this is my fight
[00:27.49] Come on courage, let's be heard
[00:29.88] Turn feelings into words
[00:32.55] American equality has always been sour
[00:34.68] An attitude, I would like to devour
[00:37.33] My name is peace, this is my hour
[00:39.20] Can I get just a little bit of power
[00:41.85] The power of equality
[00:46.90] Is not yet what it ought to be
[00:51.68] It fills me up like a hollow tree
[00:56.20] The power of equality
[01:10.01] Right or wrong, my song is strong
[01:12.40] You don't like it, get along
[01:14.28] Say what I want, do what I can
[01:16.67] Death to the message of the Ku Klux Klan
[01:19.32] I don't buy supremacy
[01:21.18] Media chief, you menace me
[01:23.57] The people you say 'cause all the crime
[01:25.87] Wake up motherfucker and smell the slime
[01:28.35] Blackest anger, whitest fear
[01:30.47] Can you hear me, am I clear
[01:33.15] My name is peace, this is my hour
[01:35.96] Can I get just a little bit of power
[01:37.93] The power of equality
[01:43.24] Is not yet what it ought to be
[01:47.76] It fills me up like a hollow tree
[01:52.27] The power of equality
[02:15.66] Well, I've got tapes, I've got CD's
[02:18.06] I've got my Public Enemy
[02:20.18] My Lilly white ass is tickled pink
[02:22.30] When I listen to the music that makes me think
[02:24.96] Not another, motherfuckin' politician
[02:27.35] Doin' nothin' but something for his own ambition
[02:29.75] I never touch the sound we make
[02:31.88] Soul sacred love, vows that we take
[02:34.28] To create straight what is true
[02:36.40] Yo, he's with me and what I do
[02:38.79] My name is peace, this is my hour
[02:41.18] Can I get just a little bit of power
[02:43.84] The power of equality
[02:48.88] Is not yet what it ought to be
[02:53.66] It fills me up like a hollow tree
[02:58.44] The power of equality
[03:11.96] Madder than a motherfucker, lick my finger
[03:14.65] Can't forget 'cause the memory lingers
[03:17.04] Count 'em off quick, little Piccadilly sickness
[03:19.43] Take me to the hick, eat my thickness
[03:21.55] I've got a welt from the Bible belt
[03:23.68] Dealing with the hand that I've been dealt
[03:26.07] Sitting in the grip of a killing fist
[03:28.46] Giving up blood just to exist
[03:30.59] Rub me wrong and I get pissed
[03:32.97] No I cannot, get to this
[03:35.37] People in pain, I do not dig it
[03:37.76] Change of brain for Mr.Bigot
[03:45.10] Little brother do you hear me
[03:47.37] Have a heart oh come get near me
[03:49.77] Misery is not my friend
[03:51.89] But I'll break before I bend
[03:54.28] What I see is insanity
[03:56.40] What ever happened to humanity
[03:58.79] What ever happened to humanity
[04:00.93] What ever happened to humanity
