Wist je dat? Het nummer begint met een Russische sample. De tekst luidt: "Amerikanskaja firma Tranceptor Technology pristoepila k proizvodstvoe kompjoeterov 'Personalny Spoetnik'. (De Amerikaanse firma Tranceptor Technology is begonnen met de productie van de 'Personal Companion'-computer.) De Personal Companion was een draagbare computer voor mensen met een visuele beperking en werd in 1989 op de markt gebracht door Tranceptor Technologies Incorporated.

Amerikanskaja firma Tranceptor Technology pristoepila k proizvodstvoe kompjoeterov 'Personalny Spoetnik'

I've got the power
I've got the power... hey yeah heh

Like the crack of the whip I snap attack
Front to back in this thing called rap
Dig it like a shovel rhyme devil
On a heavenly level
Bang the bass turn up the treble
Radical mind day and night all the time
Seven to fourteen wise divine
Maniac brainiac winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh yeah-eah-eah-eah-eah-eah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh yeah
Gettin' kinda heavy
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda heavy
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda heavy
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda heavy
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda heavy

Chorus:

I've got the power

I've got the power oh-oh-oh-oh

Quality I possess some say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone that I am holdin'
Copywritten lyrics so they can't be stolen
If they are snap
Don't need the police to try to save them
Your voice will sink so please stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that

(Repeat Chorus)

It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin' it's gettin' it's gettin' kinda hectic

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

Like the crack of the whip I snap attack
Front to back in this thing called rap
Dig it like a shovel rhyme devil
On a heavenly level
Bang the bass turn up the treble
Radical mind day and night all the time
Seven to fourteen wise divine
Maniac brainiac winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James

(Repeat Chorus)
I've got the power
