Soul Power (Syncopated Soul)

(album: A Salt With A Deadly Pepa - 1988)

As I was way in the back I noticed that
Salt was rocking the hell out of some of you cats
Then I decided to slow down the tempo
To let you catch your breath so
Just wait for the drum roll then you can feel the flow of

Syncopated soul power
Got to have syncopated soul power
All you need is syncopated soul power
Yeah, gimme some soul power
Everybody needs soul power

I'm the Pepa, much deffer
Half-stepper? No, I'm never
World renowned as a vocalist
When Salt is not around I'm a soloist
Putting pep in your step seriously
Conquest is the best lyrically
The mic is a component I use on my opponents
Only to flaunt it, it just sound good, don't it?
Rhyme power, organic as a sunflower

And full of soul power
All I got is syncopated soul power
All you need is syncopated soul power
Cold kicking soul power
Steady kicking soul power

Now raise your hands and keep 'em there for a minute
I'm gonna tell you what to do with it
Wave it like a flag, dirty rag
Keep 'em there 'til they get jet-lag
Pepa's on the mic, and the mic is on
If Salt's at my side, nothing can go wrong
Meet the mix empress, Spinderella, head on
And that, my friend, is the meaning of a rap song
Keep your shirt on, don't lose the buddies
If I ain't done rapping yo, Spin, keep cutting
Ain't nothing gonna stop us now

We on a roll with syncopated soul power
Got to have syncopated soul power
All you need is syncopated soul power

Soul power, soul power
Soul power, soul power...
