Lyrics Treal (feat. Yasiin Bey) - Robert Glasper feat. Yasiin Bey

Power, we know what you want
You don't want to be free, you want power
Or you mistake freedom for power (for power, for power)

The arsonist avert the form, a requiem for Mars
The monster at the dinner told the mirror, "Here is God"
The labor camp owners host a party for the staff
That appreciation just as they rehearsed like karate
Pay tribute to your heroes, then we begin the auction
Pay tribute to your heroes so you don't have to be one

Exerting great effort to be noticed by the heathens
'Til everything is seasoned, hemlock breakfast
Crayola crayon, crayfish, pray
The memory of Heaven and the measure of the day
On Revelation Road between azepine and Worldstar
Paranormal parking on a spaceship axis
High impact-ice or a low end theorem
Twins, a love supreme, a mundane surreal

Treal, treal, treal
Life is what death can't kill
Treal, treal
Life is what death can't kill
Treal, treal
T-R-E-A-L, treal

We know what you want
You don't want to be free, you want power
Or you mistake freedom for power (for power, for power)

Treal, this is what death can't kill
This is what death can't kill, life
Treal, treal
T-R-E-A-L, treal
Hah, treal
We know, we know, we know, we know what you want
Skill, treal
We know what you want

Lasting treasure in a world that was born to die
What won't be claimed by time?
Styles have fallen down are still giving the lights
Brightened shadows on every side of this dream
Flow like a river, a mirror to the heavens' face
I don't need to eavesdrop to hear what Heaven say
Feel like it's talking to me all the time anyway
Got a urgent message from it just the other day
It know me by my every attribute and every name
Sing, you're the reason why

We know what you want
We know what you want
You don't want to be free, you want power
Or you mistake freedom for power (for power, for power)
Shine, shine, shine, shine, kill

The arsonist avert the form, a requiem for Mars
The monster at the dinner told the mirror, "Here is God"
The labor camp owners holds the social for the staff
That appreciation just as they rehearsed like karate
Pay tribute to your heroes so you don't have to be one

Exerting great effort to be noticed by the heathens
'Til everything is seasoned
Crayola crayon, crayfish, pray
The memory of Heaven, the measure of the day
High impact-ice of a low end theorem
Twins, a love supreme, mundane surreal

Treal, treal, treal
Life is what death can't kill
T-R-E-A-L, treal, treal
People in the world
T-R-E-A-L, well

People in the world, world, world, world, world, world
People in the world, world, world, world, world, world
People in the world want the depression to really stop
What they will start doing, start having prayer groups
People in the world want the depression to really stop
What they will start doing, start hav-, start hav-, start having prayer groups
Start having prayer groups, start having prayer groups
Prayer groups, prayer groups, prayer groups

Amen, amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen, amen

The throne is not enough
The crown is not enough
The jewels are not enough
The power is not enough
We know what you want

Throne is not enough
Crown is not enough
We know what you want
Throne is not enough
Jewels is not enough
Crown is not enough
We know what you want

All that you want
Is it all that you need whenever you want?
We know what you want
You don't want to be free, you want power
All that you want?
Or you mistake freedom for power (for power, for power)
Is that what you need, all that you want?

Is it all you desire? Look at the state that this put you in
Is it everything that you desire?
Look at the place that this put you in?
All that you want
Is it all that you need?

Throne is not enough
Crown is not enough
Jewels are not enough
Jams is not enough
Crowds is not enough
Not enough
Not enough
Not enough!
