[Intro] (Yeah) The power of God's in you, Show and Prove (This is the power) The power of God's in you, Show and Prove (True power, showin' and provin') The power of God's in you, Show and Prove True, the time has come through Chosen few must Show and Prove [Verse 1] I once asked God to forgive for my sins Bent on my knees, pleading to be heavenly cleansed Said the Holy Ghost changed the ways and actions of men When I stood, I felt the same as if I just walked in I was twelve at the time, held nines, held mines A frail mind, criminal thought well designed Then the Older Gods put me on, on how to rock this Maintain 360, Lord and live prosperous His jewel was priceless, keep the cypher righteous Bear in mind, God, some of your own won't like this I'm mentally scarred, recuperating from embrasure Fooled by interpretations made from a traitor It's in my nature, I was taught that's the first law Obtain the Food, Clothing and the Shelter that I search for Fire in my eyes as hot as Earth's core What hurts more, the fact that we still dirt poor In hard times force crimes out an honest man And most fiend to see the so-called Promised Land Son of Man, Knowledge, Wisdom and Understand That it's time to take matters in our own hands [Chorus] The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove True, the time has come through Chosen few must Show and Prove (Yo) [Verse 2] The wicked ways of the world can't escape sin I'm facing Master's gun on the plantation Sing songs from home yet I'm still caged in 'Cause nine thousand miles is such a long way to swim And many died tryna survive the next mile Families was raped, enslaved and exiled I learned it as a child, knowledge be the key To unlock your brain and set your mindstate free It's true, the times come through, chosen few Show and Prove The power of God's in you Or remain a savage in pursuit of happiness Who lack jewel, Love and Peace complete the package The fact is, five out a hundred know the truth The wisdom might blow the roof when shown and proved [Chorus] The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove True, the time has come through Chosen few must Show and Prove [Verse 3] Through the course of time, we was dumb, deaf and blind Now we on the incline, build with one mind Came a long way but yet we still far behind So uplift the mind, God rise and shine I speak to the black, brown and yellow seed My fellow breed, all race, colors and creed Search for the knowledge, use science and math And be queens and kings like the centuries past The Devil tried to fool my people, said we was equal But I'll believe him when my culture see freedom You beat him with the positive thoughts, you don't need him Leave him in the dirt, let the blood suckers see him [Chorus] The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove True, the time has come through Chosen few must Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove The power of God's in you, Show and Prove True, the time has come through Chosen few must Show and Prove
