Ancient philosophy
Says be the change you want to see
It starts inside with you and me
You can thank me later!
As anyone can see
Fools forget their history
In revolution, you and me
We can break the chains

The power of the people
Is greater than the people in power
Say, the power of the people
Is greater than the people in power

This cabal of crooks and thieves
Line their pockets easily
They walk away from justice
As long as we are silent
And our complicity
Caused by our complacency
We're never rid of tyrants
A state of wilful blindness

The power of the people
Is greater than the people in power
Say, the power of the people
Is greater than the people in power

I had a dream about the future
The old world came to an end
But it was only a new beginning
People power had made a stand

Together we can, can make a stand, my friends
Sing it
Together we can, can make a stand, my friends

The power of the people
