Power
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(What you want is)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(What you want is)
These kids don't play my shit, I never had a top ten (ooh)
Maybe it's 'cause I sing about
Violence and depression (what you want is)
They say, "Don't blame these kids, just focus on yourself, Ren"
Well, if they don't like what I'm doing now, then fuck them
Don't trip, I up the ante
Learning licks like John Frusciante
Smoking spliffs and popping candy
Idolising Sid and Nancy
Wooh, rock and roll in my soul
Bumping Nat King Cole, on the dole
Fish and chips and games consoles
Council housed and violent flow (power)
But life weren't sweet at home
Mum and dad took a trip and they split, shalom
What will be, will be
But me? I hate to see my mum alone (power)
Late night crying
Get so high to try to silence sounds of fighting
Through the walls, I heard love dying
So I focused on my
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh) that's what it was
I focused on my (what you want is)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh) now let's go back
Let's go back
These kids don't play my shit, I never had a gold plaque (ooh)
My style is old-school
But I swear this ain't a throwback (what you want is)
I put my visions into rhythms on a dope track (ooh)
To understand the place I'm coming from, let's go back
When I was 16, I was a sick teen
I was a victim of my head
I was just 16, up in the kitchen
Racking up lines 'till my nose bled
16 with an affliction, in an addiction with my dread (power)
I was just 16, I was quite sick then
I was a prick then, I was a pleb, but
Fuck it, we're all misguided individuals, life can
Suck it, my cup ain't half full, man, I'm filling up the whole
Bucket
I'll drink my tears so I can drown my sorrows
Sing like I might die tomorrow
Live brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother, brother
Note for note, I go for broke on every single song I wrote
And every single song I write brings freedom to my weary mind
A healing that you'll only find inside an intricate design
Of kicks and snares and fat bass lines
I flip the script until I find my
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh) it is what it is
I focus on my (what you want is)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Power, ooh-ooh-ooh) now run the track
Run the track (what you want is)
