[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)
