Lyrics for Song: Power Trip
Lyrics for Album: Gravity [2012]
Who's got the power...ah...ah..ah
Yeah, the key to life: money, power, respect
Louie this, Gucci that, 2 private jets
Big money, big business, watch the paper stack
Treat life like a game, it ain't pool but I'm racked..up
Big bucks, no whammy's
I swear I'd prolly lump somebody's head for a Grammy
My heart black as the Lambo, Kim bought for Kanye
And I ain't frontin', I'm just tellin' y'all what God say
Blood thirsty, seek my own will since the day that Adam cursed me
The lust for power go to your brain if you let it
You say what up dawg, I hear God, I'm so dyslexic
Sit on the throne, is really a toilet, hard as septic
I had no power, I get handed death, I must accept it
It's hard to see the light when you never listen
Our whole life's blacked out, the power's tripping
[Chorus]:
Who's got the power?
Do you really want it all? Whole world in your palms, tell me
Who's got the power?
It'll make you a leader or a tyrant, you do the deciding
Who's got the power?
Do you really want it all? Whole world in your palms, tell me
Who's got the power?
It'll make you a leader or a tyrant, you do the deciding
It was all a dream, I grew up reading hip hop magazines (Yuh)
XXL got me wanting to excel (Uh)
They telling me it ain't hard to tell, I rock well (I rock well)
And now with every sale I'm feeling my head swell
Well I'm a genius in my dreams
Even if I was it was stitched inside my jeans (Get it?)
I'm self inflated, self-infatuated
And somehow I convinced myself I finally made it
The truth is, I was made like the mob
Geppetto put me together, my strings lead to God
Pride come before the fall, I've seen it in the script
So if you see me fallin', probably a power trip
[Chorus]:
Who's got the power?
Do you really want it all? Whole world in your palms, tell me
Who's got the power?
It'll make you a leader or a tyrant, you do the deciding
Who's got the power?
Do you really want it all? Whole world in your palms, tell me
Who's got the power?
It'll make you a leader or a tyrant, you do the deciding
Welcome to the culture where humility not allowed
They do it big, if you don't see that you shallow Hal
Trying to show them how love and power, it goes together
If they call us losers, that just means we last forever
I been connected to the power, I don't have to chase it
I roll with the Trinity, this is sorta the Matrix
A hard pill to swallow, we're evil to the core
Wicked power exploits the poor, and it brings war
Power could be a field of dreams, loaded with land mines
We know the ruler so you can't say these are bad lines
You might lust for that power, but don't forget that we're forgiven
I know the Lord gon' catch me if I'm power tripping
Who made the crowd put they hands in the sky...me
Who made the sky with they hands
What if y'all can't see this is kinda strange
God makes the weather change
And we bragging up on our chains like look at how we make it rain
We invictus, this sin sickness is in us
Running a mark and causing that mischief
Tell me this then, who could really fix us
I'm tripping to think that i'm really not limited in this position
I'm sitting in
Gravity, pulling me back to earth gradually
Reality's hitting
Who's got the power..ah..ah..ah
