We Got The Power is the twentieth track on Gorillaz' 2017 album Humanz. It features vocals from Jehnny Beth with Noel Gallagher and D.R.A.M. providing backing vocals.
Background Information[]
Damon Albarn has described "We Got The Power" as being disconnected to the rest of Humanz, acting as the "end credits" to the main narrative of the album. Jamie Hewlett jokingly described it as the song playing "when the credits of the worst hangover you've had are running". [2]

Lyrics[]
[2-D, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to be loving each other
No matter what happens, we got the power to do that
[Jehnny Beth]
On a le pouvoir de s'aimer, okay?
[2-D, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to be
Ringing the great bell out there above us
We got the power for that
[Jehnny Beth & (2-D)]
We got the power to do that
And, we dream of home
I dream of life out of here
Their dreams are small
My dreams don't know fear
(I got all you)
I got my heart full of hope
I will change everything
No matter what I'm told
How impossible it seems
(We got the power)
We did it before
And we'll do it again
We're indestructible
Even when we're tired
And we've been here before
Just you and I
Don't try to rescue me
I don't need to be rescued
[2-D, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to be loving each other
No matter what happens, we got the power to do that
[Jehnny Beth & (2-D)]
On a le pouvoir de s'aimer, okay? (Yeah!)
[2-D, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to be
Ringing the great bell out there above us
We got the power for that
[Jehnny Beth & 2-D]
We got the power to do that
[2-D]
Get yourself up to the silent altar
And call me
But don't forget the machines
'Cause if your choice is chipping it down on the M1
Then you'll wake up in the morning
You'll be storming, oh, oh, oh
[2-D, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to be loving each other
No matter what happens, we got the power to do that
[Jehnny Beth & (2-D)]
On a le pouvoir de s'aimer, okay? (Yeah!)
[2-D, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to be
Ringing the great bell out there above us
[Jehnny Beth, Noel Gallagher & D.R.A.M.]
We got the power to do that
We got the power, power, power, power, power,
[2-D]
We got the power
We got the power
