People Have The Power (spoken) Lyrics - Patti Smith

I was dreaming in my dreaming 

of an aspect bright and fair 

and my sleeping it was broken 

but my dream it lingered near 

in the form of shining valleys 

where the pure air recognized 

and my senses newly opened 

I awakened to the cry 

that the people have the power 

to redeem the work of fools 

upon the meek the graces shower 

it's decreed the people rule 

 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

The people have the power

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

Vengeful aspects became suspect 

and bending low as if to hear 

and the armies ceased advancing 

because the people had their ear 

and the shepherds and the soldiers 

lay beneath the stars 

exchanging visions 

and laying arms 

to waste in the dust 

in the form of shining valleys 

where the pure air recognized 

and my senses newly opened 

I awakened to the cry 

 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

 

Where there were deserts 

I saw fountains 

like cream the waters rise 

and we strolled there together 

with none to laugh or criticize 

and the leopard 

and the lamb 

lay together truly bound 

I was hoping in my hoping 

to recall what I had found 

I was dreaming in my dreaming 

god knows a purer view 

as I surrender to my sleeping 

I commit my dream to you 

 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

 

The power to dream, to rule 

to wrestle the world from fools 

it's decreed the people rule 

it's decreed the people rule 

Listen 

I believe everything we dream 

can come to pass through our union 

we can turn the world around 

we can turn the earth's revolution 

we have the power 

People have the power 

 

The people have the power 

The people have the power 

 

The power to dream, to rule 

to wrestle the world from fools 

it's decreed the people rule 

it's decreed the people rule 

we have the power 

People have the power 

we have the power...
