songs such as "fight the power", "power to the people", and "brothers gonna work it out" propose a response for african americans to the issues criticized throughout the album. "power to the people" has a tempo of approximately 125 beats per minute, fast-paced roland tr-808 drum machine patterns, and elements of miami bass, electro-boogie. addressing their plight at the turn of the 1990s, "brothers gonna work it out" features cacophonic sound textures and a theme of unity among african americans, with chuck d preaching "brothers that try to work it out / they get mad, revolt, revise, realize / they're superbad / small chance a smart brother's gonna be a victim of his own circumstance". richard harrington of "the washington post" writes that songs such as "war at 33⅓" and "fight the power" "may sound like a call to ohms and arms, but they are really a call to action ('turn us loose and we shall overcome'), a message to conscience and a plea for unity ('move as team, never move alone,' both cautionary advice and game plan)". "war at 33⅓" has a theme of resistance and a 128 bpm-tempo, cited by chuck d as "the fastest thing i've ever rapped to, rapping right on top of the beat".
