You Got the Power Lyrics

Power makes you think the worst remains behind you forevermore

Power makes you think you own the key to keep the darkness behind the door

Power rears its head inside the folds of a £10 note you rolled

You've had enough, still you'll take more

You want the power, you need the glory

Am I a crazed man to say the light's too bright

When the mask comes off, and we call it a night?

And you wonder why… it never feels right

You got the power

It's there in your hands, I'll have you understand

That you got the power

It's there in your hands, I'll have you understand

(Power!) What you see is what you get, when optics keep the world propped up

(Power!) Power's a red hand, a blue check, stale beer at the bottom of your cup

All you say to lay claim to the lackeys' basic gaze

Well, I'm amazed, mate, you're somehow standing

The weight of power can be so demanding

Am I a crazed man to say the light's too bright

When the sun comes up, and we call it a night?

And you wonder why… it never feels right

You got the power

It's there in your hands, I'll have you understand

That you got the power

It's there in your hands

I'll have you understand

You got the power

It's there in your hands, I'll have you understand

Yeah, you've got the power

It's there in your hands, I'll have you understand
