No matter how hard you try, you can't stop us now (x2)
We're
the renegades of this atomic age
This
atomic age of renegades
Renegades
of this atomic age
This
atomic age of renegades
Since
the Prehistoric ages and the days of ancient Greece
Right
down through the Middle Ages
Planet
earth kept going through changes
And
then no renaissance came, and times continued to change
Nothing
stayed the same, but there were always renegades
Like
Chief Sitting Bull, Tom Paine
Dr.
Martin Luther King, Malcom X
They
were renegades of their time and age
So
many renegades
We're the renegades of funk (x4)
From
a different solar system many many galaxies away
We
are the force of another creation
A
new musical revelation
And
we're on this musical mission to help the others listen
And
groove from land to land singin' electronic chants like
Zulu
nation
Revelations
Destroy
our nations (x6)
Now
renegades are the people with their own philosophies
They
change the course of history
Everyday
people like you and me
We're
the renegades we're the people
With
our own philosophies
We
change the course of history
Everyday
people like you and me
C'mon
We're
the renegades of funk (x4)
Poppin',
sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
Because
where we're goin' there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin',
sockin', puttin' a side of hip-hop
Because
where we're goin' there ain't no stoppin'
Poppin',
sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
'Cause
we're poppin', sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
Poppin',
sockin', rockin' puttin' a side of hip-hop
We're the renegades of funk (x4)
We're
teachers of the funk
And
not of empty popping
We're
blessed with the force and the sight of electronics
With
the bass, and the treble the horns and our vocals
'Cause
everytime I pop into the beat we get fresh
There
was a time when our music
Was
something called the Bay Street beat
People
would gather from all around
To
get down to the big sound
You
had to be a renegade in those days
To
take a man to the dance floor
Say
jam sucker
Say
jam sucker
Say
groove sucker
Say
groove sucker
Say
dance sucker
Say
dance sucker
Now
move sucker
Now
move sucker
(x2)
We're
the renegades of funk
