I need a song in which the lyrics deal with power, lyrics in which the singer has/experiences power over another indiviual or group would be preferable.

'Gimme The Prize' by Queen. It's off their 'A Kind Of Magic' album (1985). It's also from the film 'Highlander'. Hope this is the kind of thing you're after ...

Here I am I'm the master of your destiny
I am the one the only one, I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize, just gimme the prize
Give me your kings, let me squeeze them in my hands
Your puny princes
Your so called leaders of your land
I'll eat them whole before I'm done
The battle's fought and the game is won
I am the one the only one
I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize just gimme the prize

"Move over I said move over"
Hey hey hey clear the way
There's no escape from my authority - (didn't I tell you?)
I am the one the only one I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize just gimme the prize
I am the one the only one
I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize

"there can be only one"

Leper Messiah by Metallica. Heck, most of the "Master Of Puppets" album follows those themes.

power and the passion - Oils
Not so much the singers power ...more the mans power.

or

Snaps

I've got the power

I've got the power

Hey Yeah

Like the crack of the whip I SNAP attack
Front to back in this thing called rap
Dig it like a shovel rhyme devil
On a heavenly level
Bang the bass
Turn up the treble
Radical mind day and night all the time
7-14 wise divine
Maniac brainiac winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James

Quality, I'm possessed some say I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the mesh
Of the microphone
That I am holding
Copywritten lyrics
So they can't be stolen
If they are
SNAP
Don't need the police
You try to say then
Your voice will seize so peace
Stay off my back
Or I will attack
And you don't want that

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic
It's gettin'
It's gettin'
It's gettin' kinda hectic

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

I've got the power

The Trooper or Aces High would fit into the topic more than Powerslave.

There are a heap of maiden songs that would, truly inspirational band, they have heaps of pump up songs.

Metal is the best source for Power filled anthems and Maiden are one of the best metal bands to ever exist, so its a given really.
