Use a spell check...It's persuasive!

Correct spelling always helps lend credibility, therefore making any written missive all the more persuasive.

Prince pleads (very successfully eye feel) to address social injustices and lingering maladies that affect society today. His personification of the "powers that be" as Mr Man, really create a emotional connection.

His feelings of desperation mixed with clarity of universal truth make u feel like now is the time to get things done. - write a letter and influence people who can create a big change, be generous and caring helping those suffering from poverty and discrimination, ...

His words to echo loudly within your mind... his words - creative and personal, so down to earth - he is talking to u and me . And it is this focussed light on suffering and the prolems we face that make this piece of text so persuasive.



Dear Mr. Man
What’s wrong with the world 2day?
Things just got 2 get better
Sho' ain't what the leaders say
Maybe we should write a letter

Dear Mr. Man
We don’t understand
Y poor people keep struggling
But U don’t lend a helping hand

Matthew 5:5 say:
The meek shall inherit the earth
We wanna b down that way
But U been trippin since the day of Ur birth

Who said that 2 kill is a sin
Then started every single war
That Ur people been in?
Who said that water
Is a precious commodity
Then dropped a big old black oil slick
In the deep blue sea?

Who told me, Mr. Man
That working round the clock
Would buy me a big house in the 'hood
With cigarette ads on every block

Who told me Mr. Man
That Eye got a right 2 moan?
How 'bout this big ol' hole in the ozone?

What’s wrong with the world 2day
Things just got 2 get better
Dear Mr. Man, we don’t understand
Maybe we should write a letter

Listen, ain’t no sense in voting
Same song with a different name
Might not b in the back of the bus
But it sho' feel just the same
Ain’t nothin' fair about welfare
Ain’t no assistance in AIDS
Ain't nothing affirmative about ur actions
'Till the people get paid

Ur thousand years r up
Now U got 2 share the land
Section 1, the 14th Amendment says:
No state shall deprive any person
Of life, liberty, or property
Without due process of law

Mr. Man,
We want 2 end this letter with 3 words
"We tired U'all!"

when i was doing my english gcse i did an essay on ADORE and IF I WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND!
