Joy Crookes - Power lyrics

[Verse 1] I don't need your permission I don't want that disease Lurking through every finger That you pointed at me Don't you like it so sexy? Wearing it like it's free? Dropping half-priced opinions But calling me "coupon queen" [Pre-Chorus] You've got b*tches, you've got hoes We the people, and we know All we want is to be accepted But you don't You've got ideas, all the same I'm your scapegoat, feed me blame In the back of your mind You know you're wasting time And you're crossing lines with your Crossing lines with your [Chorus] Power Come and spend it on me Power What it means to be free [Verse 2] You're a man on a mission But you seem to forget You came here through a woman Show some fu*king respect [Pre-Chorus] We're your b*tches, we're your hoes We the people, and we know All we want is to be accepted But you don't You got ideas, all the same I'm your scapegoat, feed me blame In the back of your mind You know you're wasting time And you're crossing lines with your Crossing lines with your [Chorus] Power Come and spend it on me Power What it means to be free [Bridge] Close your eyes 'til you can see me Yellow polka dot burkini That they stole off her body that day If you really want to free me Tell my mummy that she's pretty Melanin is not your enemy [Chorus] Here's the truth, one condition Can't kill my ambition Not about if you like how I sing You can't take my power You've got nothin' on me My power (Power) My power (Power) Power (Power) My power (Power) (Power) (Don't you come for me now) (Power) You can't take my power You got nothin' on me
