"One more time for the people of power!
Clap your hands one more time for the people of power!
One more time for the people of power
I can't hear you MTHRFCKRS, come on, clap a little louder
One more time for us people of power!"

"One more time for all of the stressors
The masters; oppressors; and the passive aggressors
The mass projectors of our petty displeasures
Spitting like a needle against all of these pressures
One more time for the paranoid legions
Is paranoia considered strength or a weakness?
If the suspects confess through unseen duress
How long would you suspect they maintain their freedom?
One more time for all of the fascists
Hiding behind pseudonyms and propagandists
Infallibly in struggle with American interests
But still eternally and rapidly gaining America's trust
Why? I'll tell you why if you shut up and listen
And keep on focusing direction towards the media diversion
People of power remain absolutely silent
Let that then fester 'till it triggers excitement

"Let that take root until all hope is depleted
For now we know that this cycle has now completed
The world is in shambles, and it's all of your faults
Caught up in violent and sexual assaults
Lost in division while we're puppeteering
The strings that control you, acknowledged or not
You're hopeless and broke, and we could not be prouder
Keep up the good work!" signed people of power

"WE OWN YOU
WE WANT YOU
WE PAWN YOU
REFORM YOU

WE FEED YOU
WE NEED YOU
WE FREE YOU
DECEIVE YOU"

But who'll snatch the power: the oppressor or oppressed
The privileged or homeless; the impressed or depressed?
The governor with the gold lining in His jacket
Or the mother with the copper stolen freshly from her pockets?
And who has the power - is it me or is it you?
Is it the silent; the violent; the obnoxious; who
Has really a cause to tear it all down
To destroy this establishment; burn it to the ground?
Who's got the power? Well, let's see your fists
'Cause I believe power comes in the right to resist
I believe power lies within unity
Within every single member of our community
And yes, we're the people of power, whether we know it or not
'Cause a bullet in our temple - only power they've got
But a bullet only travels so far, don't you know?
Until you people of power ain't got power no mo'
And if death be a necessity, then so be it
Because I'd rather be a body than participant
In this system of civilians dehumanized
Expectant to be civil under watchful eyes
It's like it's 1984 in 2018 when hypnotism and fascism reign Supreme
And capitalism's nepotism will kill us all
And we hear this, and we know this; still, we heed the call

"WE OWN YOU"
(Bullshit! You'll never take me alive!)
"WE WANT YOU"
(That's too bad, because I see through all your lies!)
"WE PAWN YOU"
(I'm stealing back my soul from the devils up in Congress!)
"REFORM YOU"
(You'll never take away my consciousness!)

"WE FEED YOU"
(I'd rather starve than to feast in your greed!)
"WE NEED YOU"
(It'll take a bullet in my brain before I fall down to my knees!)
"WE FREE YOU"
(Your pathetic attempts to slave us have now begun to tear!)
"DECEIVE YOU"
("F*ck the Divided States!" I forever scream into the air, yeah!)
