It's not the wakin' it's the risin' It is the groundin' of a foot uncompromisin' It's not forgoin' of the lie It's not the openin' of eyes It's not the wakin' it's the risin' It's not the shade we should be cast in It's the light and it's the obstacle that casts it It's the heat that drives the light It's the fire it ignites It's not the wakin' it's the risin' It's not the song it is the singin' It's the heaven of the human spirit ringin' It is the bringin' of the line It is the bearin' of the lie It's not the wakin' it's the risin' And I could cry power (power) Power (power) Power (power) Nina cried power Billie cried power Mavis cried power And I could cry power Power (power) Power (power) Curtis cried power Patti cried power Nina cried power It's not the war but what's behind it Oh the fear of how men is near assignment And everythin' that we're denied by keepin' the divide It's not the wakin' it's the risin' And I could cry power Power (power) Power (power) Nina cried power Lennon cried power James Brown cried power And I could cry power Power (power) Power (power) Billie cried power Joni cried power Nina cried power And I could cry power Power has been cried by those stronger than me Straight into the face that tells you to rattle your chains If you love bein' free Ah lord I could cry power Power (power) 'Cause power is my love when my love reaches to me James Brown cried power Seeger cried power Marvin cried power Yeah ah power James cried power Millie cried power Patti cried power Billie power Dylan power Woody power Nina cried power

La chanson évoque l'idée que ce n'est pas tant le fait de se réveiller qui importe, mais plutôt celui de se lever avec détermination. Elle souligne l'importance de faire face aux vérités difficiles et de revendiquer la puissance qui réside en chacun de nous. Les références à des figures emblématiques de la musique parlent de cette force libératrice qui transcende les difficultés et les luttes, symbolisant l'unité et l'espoir dans la résistance contre l'oppression. Le contexte de cette œuvre se situe dans une période où de nombreuses luttes pour les droits civiques et la justice sociale ont lieu. Les artistes mentionnés dans les paroles ont tous joué un rôle crucial dans ces mouvements, en utilisant leur art pour faire entendre leur voix face à l'injustice. L'ensemble de la chanson résonne comme un cri collectif de pouvoir et de résistance, rappelant que la véritable force vient de l'engagement et de la solidarité.
