How do i get power to this camera. These are the only two wires coming out of the back.

It looks like you've got a red wire with an uninsulated ground so that's probably power. The other wire looks like a coax for signal.

I've got a power supply and dont know where to connect the positive and negative.

I'd guess positive goes to the red and negative goes to the paired ground wire

The wire next to the red one is braiding from the red wire that I twisted up to get it out of the way

Yep, that's most likely the ground wire

Wire inside the red cable should be positive, the copper mesh around should be negative. Voltage should be on the label, probably 5v or 12v

The thick black cable is coaxial ... composite or SDI ... search for the model that's listed on the label and see the specs and it will tell you what signal it is.
