[Intro]

Kid! (Yo?)

Kid, I got to do this

I got the noise, I got to do this, man

Then pump the big noise, c'mon in the house

(Lay down your funky weapon)

Yeah y'all, here we go

Pumpin' the big noise in the 90's

[Verse 1]

This here rap's about the true confession

If you listen close you about to learn a lesson

You must know failure before success

Now this is the failure I must confess (well)

I was hanging onto life trying deal with this

Playing the games, almost got dismissed

Cocaine was the thing that I took on

And nowhere was the place that I was going

[Chorus]

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Makin' love and music's the only things worth fighting for

We are the New Power Generation - we wanna change the

World

(Twin Cities in your house, Twin Cities in the house)

The only thing that's in our way is you, ooh

(Twin Cities in our house, Twin Cities in my house)

Your old fashioned music, your old ideas

(Twin Cities in the house, Twin Cities in the house)

We're sick and tired of you tellin' us what to do, ooh

(Twin Cities in the house, Twin Cities in the house)

[Verse 2]

I must tell the truth, I cannot lie

I was headed for the kill, steal, destroy, and die

Top to the bottom to bottom to top

Success is where I'm headed there is no doubt

Success is something that we all want

But the truth is what we need to reach our point

I had to give this message the so-called truth

I hope it's something in it that's there for you

[Chorus]

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Makin' love and music's the only things worth fighting for

We are the New Power Generation - we wanna change the

World

(Twin Cities in your house, Twin Cities in the house)

The only thing that's in our way is you, ooh

(Twin Cities in our house, Twin Cities in my house)

Your old fashioned music, your old ideas

(Twin Cities in the house, Twin Cities in the house)

We're sick and tired of you tellin' us what to do, ooh

(Twin Cities in the house, Twin Cities in the house)

Twin Cities in the house

Twin Cities in the house

Twin Cities in the house

Twin Cities in the house

[Verse 3]

Like I said before, I'ma tell you again

Success is something that's deep within

So remember the truth - you can't go wrong

The flesh is weak but the spirit is strong

[Chorus]

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Makin' love and music's the only things worth fighting for

We are the New Power Generation - we wanna change the

World

(Twin Cities in your house, Twin Cities in the house)

The only thing that's in our way is you, ooh

(Twin Cities in our house, Twin Cities in my house)

Your old fashioned music, your old ideas

(Twin Cities in the house, Twin Cities in the house)

We're sick and tired of you tellin' us what to do, ooh

(Twin Cities in the house, Twin Cities in the house)

[Modified Chorus]

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Makin' love and music's the only things worth fighting for

We are the New Power Generation - we wanna change the

World

This here rap's about the true confession

The only thing that's in our way is you, ooh

This here rap's about the true confession

Your old fashioned music, your old ideas

This here rap's about the true confession

We're sick and tired of you tellin' us what to do, ooh

This here rap's about the true confession

[Outro]

New Power Generation

(Twin Cities in the house)

(Oh-oh-oh)
