Keep the light in your eyes Don’t let the burden of disguise Stop you from wishing Don’t let weight on your chest Break your spirit Do your best Keep on pushing Ain’t no use trying to give in No, no, no no no, no no no Get right back up and win again You have so much farther to go If I got the power And you got the power Then we got the power That’s power to the people If I got the power And you got the power Then we got the power That’s power If I got the power And you got the power Then we got the power That’s power to the people If I got the power And you got the power Then we got the power That’s power Keep your head to the sky Feed your people, never lie Keep on building Take your sister by the hand Make sure your brother understands And keep our children Say your truth Spread your love You’ve got help from above This is our mission We will die on our feet We can’t keep living on our knees So people, listen Ain’t no use trying to give in No, no, no no no, no no no Get right back up and win again You have so much farther to go Yo, with every step we take Let the world see Magic that’s born in our Black unity Echoes of ancestors Whispers in the breeze Every step we take We do it with ease From the blocks to the boardroom We carve our own lane A legacy of struggle We find our domain From the roots to the past To the future we aim In the circle of strength There’s power in the name Ain’t no use trying to give in No, no, no no no, no no no Get right back up and win again You have so much farther to go Ain’t no use trying to give in No, no, no no no, no no no Get right back up and win again You have so much farther to go
