I`ve got a soul
That cannot sleep
At night when something
Just ain`t right
Blood red
But without sight
Exploding egos
In the night
Mix like sticks
Of dynamite
Red black or white
This is my fight
Come on courage
Let`s be heard
Turn feelings
Into words
American equality
Has always been sour
An attitude
I would like to devour
My name is peace
This is my hour
Can I get
Just a little bit of power
The power of equality
Is not yet what it ought to be (ought to be)
It fills me up like a hollow tree (hollow tree)
The power of equality
Right or wrong
My song is strong
You don`t like it
Get along
Say what I want
Do what I can
Death to the massage
Of the Ku Klux Klan
I don`t buy supremacy
Media chief
You menace me
The people you say
`Cause all the crime
Wake up motherfucker
And smell the slime
Blackest anger
Whitest fear
Can you hear me
Am I clear
My name is peace
This is my hour
Can I get
Just a little bit of power
The power of equality
Is not yet what it ought to be (ought to be)
It fills me up like a hollow tree (hollow tree)
The power of equality
I`ve got tapes
I`ve got CD`s
I`ve got my public enemy
My lilly white ass
Is tickled pink
When I listen to the music
That makes me think
Not another
Motherfuckin` politician
Doin` nothin` but something
For his own ambition
Never touch
The sound we make
Soul sacred love
Vows that we take
To create straight
What is true
Yo he`s with me
And what I do
My name is peace
This is my hour
Can I get
Just a little bit of power
The power of equality
Is not yet what it ought to be (ought to be)
It fills me up like a hollow tree (hollow tree)
The power of equality
Madder than a motherfucker
Lick my finger
Can`t forget
`Cause the memory lingers
Count `em off quick
Little piccadilly sickness
Take me to the hick
Eat my thickness
I`ve got a welt
From the bible belt
Dealing with the hand
That I`ve been dealt
Sitting in the grip
Of a killing fist
Giving up blood
Just to exist
Rub me wrong
And I get pissed
No I cannot
Get to this
People in pain
I do not dig it
Change of brain
For Mr Bigot
Little brother do you hear me
Have a heart oh come get near me
Misery is not my friend
But I`ll break before I bend
What I see is insanity
What ever happened to humanity
What ever happened to humanity
What ever happened to humanity
