[Verse 1: Perrie]
Hold up, no, you didn't bow, bow
I ain't the chick to walk behind you 'round town
Just 'cause you're packin', packin', whoop, down south
That don't mean I'm ever gonna take it lying down, baby, oh
[Pre-Chorus: Jesy, Jade, Perrie]
I'm a machine when I do it
I'll be catching fire, gasoline when I do it (Uh-huh)
Just 'cause you're packin', packin', whoop, down south
That don't mean I'm ever gonna take it lying down, baby
[Chorus: Jade]
You're the man
But I got the, I got the, I got the power
You make rain
But I make it, I make it, I make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control
I'll let you come take the wheel, long as you don't forget
[Post-Chorus]
Who got the power?
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
Hold up!
[Verse 2: Jesy]
My turn
I make this look easy, tick tick, boom, like gasoline-y
Yeah, they call me Lamborghini 'cause I know just what I'm worth
Z-z-zero to a hundred, b-b-body make 'em stutter
Start my engine, push the button, 'cause I'm gon' be coming first, ow!
[Pre-Chorus: Leigh-Anne, Jade]
Yeah, I'm a machine when I do it
I'll be catching fire, gasoline when I do it (Uh-huh)
Just 'cause you're packin', packin', whoop, down south
That don't mean I'm ever gonna take it lying down, baby
[Chorus: Leigh-Anne, Leigh-Anne & Jade Thirlwall]
You're the man
But I got the, I got the, I got the power
You make rain
But I make it, I make it, I make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control
I'll let you come take the wheel, long as you don't forget, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus: Stormzy]
Who got the power?
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the
Who got the power?
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the, I got the power
I got the (Yo)
Hold up! (Check it)
[Verse 3: Stormzy]
When them boys talk loose and tell you power's for a king (Huh?)
You just play it cool and tell 'em, "Power's not a thing" (What?)
You look him in the eye and say, "I know I'm not a guy
But see, there's power in my losses and there's power in my wins"
Independent woman, look to shower in your Bimms
They call me "Cocoa," but I'm mad, you can't be powderin' my skin
And you don't need to spend another hour in the gym
You know, I'm blinded by his grace, but when you found me, I was dim
[Bridge: Stormzy, Stormzy & Leigh-Anne, Perrie]
And we'll be countin' down the years, yeah, I'm about this
All them dirty secrets that we share, I'll clear the browsers
We the type to build on our careers and share the houses
You can be a woman and a boss and wear the trousers at the same time
You should know that I ain't never lettin' go
But as long as I'm alive, then I'll be sponsoring your pride
You know there's power in a couple, let me compliment your vibe, yo
(As long as you don't forget, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Chorus: All, Stormzy, Perrie, Jesy, *Leigh-Anne*]
You're the man (Yeah)
But I got the, I got the (Woo!), I got the power (Oh)
You make rain (You make it rain, you make it rain)
But I make it, I make it, I make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control (*I'm in control, now*)
I'll let you come take the wheel, as long as you don't forget (You don't forget)
[Post-Chorus: Leigh-Anne, Jade]
I got the, I got the power (Oh)
I got the, I got the power (Oh)
I got the, I got the power (Oh)
'Cause I got, I got, I got the power (Oh)
I got the, I got the power (Oh)
I got the, I got the power
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh (Oh)
I got the
Baby, don't forget, I got the power, yeah (Oh)
The power, yeah, yeah (Oh)
[Outro: Jesy]
Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike, motorbike
Bike, bike, bike, bike
Bike, bike, bike, bike, bike, bike, whoop
Power (Remix) was produced by Steve James & Matt Rad & Robopop.
Little Mix released Power (Remix) on Fri May 26 2017.
Little Mix was criticised by some pointing out that Stormzy on the song would ruin the “female” anthem, but the decision and collaboration was also widely accepted, with Stormzy himself speaking out:
Stormzy, is an English grime and hip hop artist. His debut album, Gang Signs & Prayer, was released on 24 February 2017 and was the first grime album to reach number one on the UK Albums Chart.
Deciding who we should collaborate with on #Power in the group chat = ESSENTIAL! 👀🔥🔥xx the girls xx pic.twitter.com/mhLgLTd5fv— Little Mix (@LittleMix) May 19, 2017
Perrie Edwards:
This was unreal. It’s so empowering and just such a big song. I remember being in America at the time and our manager telling us that Stormzy really wanted to jump on a track, which we were obviously buzzing around. I adore his verse: a male artist talking about female empowerment....
