"The Power" lyrics
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
On and on, you know they try to take you (hey)
Twist and turn but they just can't break through (hey), oh
No place for compromise, we both know it's a waste of time
Step up, you know it's what you're made to
When you gotta do it, you're gonna fight on through to the end
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
You've got the power
All the way, you've gotta just keep going (hey)
Never down for the count, no you never gonna throw in
When you gotta do it, gonna fight on through, carry on
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
You've got the power
Time and time, you know they try to take it
But the rules they set, you know they're made for breaking
They've come and gone, no sweat, no bother
'Cause you're one of a kind you know there ain't no other
You're born to take it, you got the will to make it
And you know you gotta do it, gonna fight on through to the end
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
You've got the power
'Cause you've got the power
Come on, you've got the power
All your life, they told you it can't be done
And in return they try to hold you back and kick it down
But you know that second place means you're just the first in a long line of losers
And no one's gonna remember the ones that quit the race
So do what you must, the future's yours, you have that choice
'Cause you've got the power
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
On and on, you know they try to take you (hey)
Twist and turn but they just can't break through (hey), oh
No place for compromise, we both know it's a waste of time
Step up, you know it's what you're made to
When you gotta do it, you're gonna fight on through to the end
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
You've got the power
All the way, you've gotta just keep going (hey)
Never down for the count, no you never gonna throw in
When you gotta do it, gonna fight on through, carry on
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
You've got the power
Time and time, you know they try to take it
But the rules they set, you know they're made for breaking
They've come and gone, no sweat, no bother
'Cause you're one of a kind you know there ain't no other
You're born to take it, you got the will to make it
And you know you gotta do it, gonna fight on through to the end
For the pride, for the fame
For the thrill of the game
Take a stand, take your place
'Cause you've got the power
By the blood and the pain
You will show them the way
See you rise to the sky
Like a tower, 'cause you've got the power
You've got the power
'Cause you've got the power
Come on, you've got the power
All your life, they told you it can't be done
And in return they try to hold you back and kick it down
But you know that second place means you're just the first in a long line of losers
And no one's gonna remember the ones that quit the race
So do what you must, the future's yours, you have that choice
'Cause you've got the power
