Truth wells in me like water from stone
A voice that keeps me from being alone
When it contradicts the reality i see
Speaking truth to power is the action that i seek
But the leaders like their power and
You see me as wearing their color
They see me as rebel without flock
And i wonder what door i must unlock to

Speak truth to power
Wearing the color of power
Is this my power
To claim all have power

I am no messiah here to save the masses
Saving them from their ego disasters
I'm a woman with pain joy and fear
My words flow like water when my sight i clear
If i don't let them flow they'll explode like a blood vessel
Then a bruise i'll be on the side of the people
My pain spreads like disease on breath
Til day or night no one will have rest
So i

Speak truth to power
Wearing the color of power
Is this my power
To claim all have power      

What do you do with the power that you carry 
Do you share it with all or to yourself do you marry
Please don't feed me your lies
I might be broken but i have my honor and pride
Sun bathes the world in light 
I smile believing one day we'll have sight 
That god is not just wrath controlling us with fear
But to the truth of one love will humanity steer

Power is the hand that feeds power is the heart that bleeds
Power is in privilege i receive privilege is responsibility
Chameleon skin pale privilege wins notes bends and moans rock transmutes sin
Prophets hail from every kin respect the past new age begin
We're taking to the streets again dignity we must defend
Four hundred years a grain of sand but equality is the master plan
Do you share love or steal from others do you steal hope or build another
Tell me what do you offer you hide from love the ghost will catch you

I Speak truth to power
Wearing the color of power
Is this my power
To claim all have power      

Truth wells in me like water from stone
A voice that keeps me from being alone
When it contradicts the reality i see
Speaking truth to power is the action that i seek
