(for god s sake) give more power to the people

Joss Stone

For God s sake, gotta give more power to the people
For God s sake, give more power to the people

There s some people up there hoggin everything
Tellin lies, givin alibis about the people s money an things
An if they gonna throw it away, might as well give some to me
Yeah, they seen an heard it but they never had a misery

There are some people who are starvin to death
Never knew but only heard em an they never had happiness
If you don t have enough to eat, how can you think of love?
You don t have the time to care
It s crime you re guilty of

For God s sake, you gotta give more power to the people
For God s sake, give more power to the people

Cut this jive an see who s got the power
When they run out of it, the world s gonna be a ghost
They know we re not satisfied, so we begin to holler
Making us a promise so they throw in a few more dollars

There s no price for happiness, there s no price for love
Up goes the price of livin an you re right back where you was
So whatever you got, just be glad you got it
Now we re gonna get on up an get some more of it

For God s sake, gotta give more power to the people
For God s sake, gotta give more power to the people
For God s sake, you gotta give more...
People, tell em what you think about it
Yeah

For God s sake...
So easy but we re too late

For God s sake, gotta give more power to the people
For God s sake, aren t you listenin to your people?
Listenin
It s getting tired, it s getting tired...

For God s sake, give more power to the people
Please, c mon now, open up your ears

Give more power to the people, for God s sake
For God s sake, you re really are...
Hear me now

Oh, give more power to the people
Give it
