[Intro]
Give me real power
Give me real
Give me real power
Give me real
[Verse 1]
Somewhere in the night, a fire is burning
Energy is high, it's getting real
Head is in the clouds, I'm moving mountains
Do you feel what I feel? (Do you feel what I feel?)
Swaying face to face, our hands are clapping
Shadows in the corner standing still
In a moment anything could happen
Do you feel what I feel? (Do you feel what I feel?)
[Chorus]
I want real power
Give me something real
Real power
Do you feel what I feel?
I want real power
Give mе something real
Real powеr
Do you feel what I feel?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
[Verse 2]
Music in my head, my ears are ringing
Always been like this and always will
Rhythm in my blood, my heart is pounding
Do you feel what I feel? (Do you feel what I feel?)
People in the streets are getting rowdy
Come here to make peace, but just to kill
Feeling overcrowded, but I like it
Do you feel what I feel? (Do you feel what I feel?)
[Chorus]
I want real power
Give me something real
Real power
Do you feel what I feel?
I want real power
I need something real
Real power
Do you feel what I feel?
[Bridge]
Ooh (Give me real power, give me real)
(Give me real power, give me real)
Real (Give me real power, give me real) power, real (Give me real power, give me real)
Real (Give me real power, give me real) power, real (Give me real power, give me real)
Real (Give me real power, give me real) power, real (Give me real power)
[Chorus]
I need real power
Give me something real
Real power
Do you feel what I feel?
I want real power
Give me something real
Real power
Do you feel what I feel?
(Ooh)
[Outro]
Give me real power, give me real
Give me real power, give me real
Give me real power, give me real
Give me real power, give me real

Beth Ditto:
That song is about how awesome our city is and how it really showed up. The system was being rearranged and we were forcing people to reckon with it at a time when it could literally make you ill to gather, during a pandemic. That’s real power — people coming together, making those deci...
