M.I.A. - P.O.W.A. lyrics
[M.I.A. - P.O.W.A. lyrics]
Kid Kamillion
Don't you wanna tell me if you're gonna
Put down your armor, promise no more drama
Throw up my hands I say, "I'm not Dalai Lama"
Throw up my hands say, "I'm not Obama"
I'm not Osama, Monsanto farmer
I don't drink no soda, I believe in Karma
They try to shut me down
I've still got the power
They try to hate me but I still be that lover
I know my mind, in me I'm gonna find
This is my time and I'm
Searching for the signs
Throw up my hands, say "this is people power"
Throw up my finger and I'm
Taking on the Tower
Don't you wanna tell me if you're gonna
Put down your armor, promise no more drama
Power pow pow pow power
Power pow pow pow power
You know me, I don't watch TV
People watching me are only gonna see
I'm not your enemy, FBI checking me
Curbing my money, but that don't bother me
I'm much tougher, I don't need the buffer
I keep it light, keep my head out the gutter
Power pow pow pow power
I'mma do it now, I'mma do it
I'mma do it now, I'mma do it
I'mma do it now, I'mma show you how
Pop-pop pa pa-pop-pop pa pa
Pop-pop-pop-pop pow
Put your hands up
Put your middle fingers in the air
MIA make it spray
Like it's raining up in here
Think you're getting baptized
With the sweat on your tee
Where, where, where
You say where my water there
Wa-wa-wa-wa-wa, I say pa pa pa pa pa
You say wa-wa-wa-wa-wa, I say pa pa pa pa pa
Supa-Kala fascist, racist, espi-ala tazers
Posers with cases, they better not erase us
Better come face us
Hey i'm not Rihanna, I'm not Madonna
I'm not Mariah, or Ariana
I've been around in this world causing drama
The real spice girl, hot girl power
Don't you wanna, tell me if you're gonna
Put down your armor, promise no more drama
Throw up my hands, say "this is people power"
Throw up my finger and I'm
Taking on the Tower
Don't you wanna tell me if you're gonna
Put down your armor, promise no more drama
Throw up my hands I say, "I'm not Dalai Lama"
Throw up my hands say, "I'm not Obama"
I'm not Osama, Monsanto farmer
I don't drink no soda, I believe in Karma
They try to shut me down
I've still got the power
They try to hate me but I still be that lover
I know my mind, in me I'm gonna find
This is my time and I'm
Searching for the signs
Throw up my hands, say "this is people power"
Throw up my finger and I'm
Taking on the Tower
Don't you wanna tell me if you're gonna
Put down your armor, promise no more drama
Power pow pow pow power
Power pow pow pow power
You know me, I don't watch TV
People watching me are only gonna see
I'm not your enemy, FBI checking me
Curbing my money, but that don't bother me
I'm much tougher, I don't need the buffer
I keep it light, keep my head out the gutter
Power pow pow pow power
I'mma do it now, I'mma do it
I'mma do it now, I'mma do it
