Positivity YES
Have U had your plus sign 2 day?
Positivity YES
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

Is that a good man
Walking down that street with that money in his hand
Is that a good man?
Why do U dog him
If that was yo father, tell me, would U dog him then
Would U dog him?

Positivity YES
Have U had your plus sign 2 day?
Positivity YES
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

Is that all your gold?
Where did it come from? What did U have 2 do? (did U have 2 do)
Can U sleep nights?
Do U dream straight up or do U dream in W's?

Positivity YES
Have U had your plus sign 2 day?
Positivity YES
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

na na na na na na, so slow

Positivity YES

na na na na na na, so slow

Can a boy who drops out at school
At 13 years of age
Answer the 2 of life and death
When it slaps him in the face?
Who's 2 blame when he's got no place 2 go
And all he's got is the sense 2 know
That a life of crime'll help him beat U in the race
Help him beat U in the race (Help him beat U in the race)
Positivity

Positivity YES
Have U had your plus sign 2 day?
Positivity YES
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

na na na na na na, so slow (na na na na na na, so slow)

Positivity YES
Have U had your plus sign 2 day?
Positivity YES
Do we mark U present, or do we mark U late?

na na na na na na, so slow (say it again - na na na na na na, so slow)

Positivity YES

na na na na na na, so slow

Wave your hands 4 positivity y'all!
All the boys and all the girls (All the boys and all the girls)
U R the new kings of the world!
Shall the court sing together

"In every man's life there will be a hang-up
A whirlwind designed 2 slow U down
It cuts like a knife and tries 2 get in U
This Spooky Electric sound
Give up if U want 2 and all is lost
Spooky Electric will be your boss"

Call People magazine, Rolling Stone
Call your next of kin, cuz your ass is gone
He's got a 57 mag with the price tag still on the side
Cuzzin' when Spooky say dead, U better say died
Or U can fly high right by Spooky and all that he crawls 4
Spooky and all that he crawls 4

Don't kiss the beast
We need love & honesty, peace & harmony
Positivity
Love & honesty, peace & harmony
I said, hold on 2 your soul, U got a long way 2 go

sho' nuff, sho' nuff, sho' nuff

Don't kiss the beast
Be superior at least

Hold on 2 your soul, y'all, court, sing
Hold on 2 your soul, we got a long way 2 go
Hold on 2 your soul
Life's a Parade! LoveLife, LoveSexy!

Sometimes It Snows In April

"Love isn't love until it's passed"

cry

And I know they're not his lyrics but Can't Make You Love Me :

"I'll close my eyes, then I won't see, the love you don't feel, when you're holding me"

I need to hear that song again, haven't heard it in ages....

lurking Others Here With Us lurking

When I'm alone, my mind takes a drive
Through chocolate religion and spirits alive
All I was brought up in this world 2 know
Is lost when a demon swallows them whole

There's others here with us
There's others here with us, I know
It's strange how your mind works when Love is in power
One learns 2 care and appreciate a flower
What makes others want 2 change your mind?
All the things I've seen, life is so sublime

7-month-old baby died in her sleep
The parents went crazy and cried 4 a week
They swore they heard her laugh in the crib by the wall
They're convinced she's with us if she's anything at all
There's others here with us
There's others here with us, I know (I know)
Bobby had an uncle who took a string
And wrapped his neck around it, a pitiful thing
If only we can turn back the hands of time
Except there's others here with us, life is sublime
There's others here with us
There's others here with us, I know (I know)
All the things I've seen

This is a very moving song and when I heard about the baby ! I almost cried,so sad !
peace PEACE.....It does not mean 2 be in a place where there is no noise,trouble,or hardwork.It means 2 be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart ! heart

Dayclear

There are really not enough hours in the day to name them all, but here's one song:
Condition of the Heart

There was a girl in Paris
Whom he sent a letter 2
Hoping she would answer back
Now wasn't that a fool
Hardy notion on the part of a
Sometimes lonely musician
Acting out a whim is only good
4 a condition of the heart

There was a dame from London
Who insisted that he love her
Then left him 4 a real prince
From Arabia, now isn't that
A shame that sometimes money
Buys U everything and nothing
Love, it only seems 2 buy a
Terminal condition of the heart

Thinking about U driving me crazy
My friends all say it's just a phase, but ooh-ooh
Every day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard

There was a woman from the ghetto
Who made funny faces just like
Clara Bow, how was I 2 know
That she would wear the same
Cologne as U and giggle the same
Giggle that U do?
Whenever I would act a fool, the fool
With a condition of the heart

Thinking about U driving me crazy
My friends all say it's just a phase, but ooh-ooh
Every single day is a yellow day
I'm blinded by the daisies in your yard

There was a girl (There was a girl in Paris)
whom he sent a letter to... (Whom he sent a letter 2)
(Hoping she would answer back)
She never answered back and now (wasn't that a foolhardy)
He's got a condition of the heart.

Is my character enuff 2 b, one that deserves a copy made. This I one day, I hope to see.

I think to this day this is a question for him that he seriously ponders. Me too. I don't think I'll EVER know the answer to this question. With the tomfoolery that I b up to, I question the quality of my character to bring another person into this world.

You're always on my mind, day and night, baby all the time.
You mean so much to me, a love like ours just ought to be.
Your the wind and the rain, You are the river that takes away my pain.
The sky's oh so blue, Your everything girl, won't you love me too.
You are the only thing that keeps me going, You are the only thing that keeps my love alive.
You are the only thing that I'll ever need. You don't have to worry, you see my love is forever.

fallinluv

This album was released on my birthday. Which is what I celebrate on April 7th...not my age. And coincidentally..."My Love is Forever" runs 4 minutes, 9 seconds...The day that I met Prince...April 9th...and I'll tell u this amazes me..because I loved Prince music through Purple Rain, until I realized it. It's a strange twist of fate, and it means the world to me.

Damn u, u're so fine
Seems 2 happen 2 me each and every time we make love
I can't hold back
It's like having a hundred million little heart attacks
Damn u, baby u're so fine
Damn this kooky love affair
All I ever want 2 do is play in your hair
2 people crazy in love
Into 1 another like a hand in a glove
Damn this kooky love affair
Like animals just born 2 breed
Come 2 think about cha baby
U're my only need
I'm on fire 'til u come and put me out
All I'm trying 2 say is that my psychadelic shouts
When u damn me
Damn u
When I'm in your arms it's all that I can do
When we're makin' love, I can't hold back
It's like having a hundred million little heart attacks
Damn u, baby u're so fine



There are other ballads that I prefer, but lyrically, this is pure poetry!
Life's a Parade! LoveLife, LoveSexy!

no one man will be ruler, therefore love must rule us all
dishonesty, anger, fear, jealousy and greed will fall
Love can save us all

we R not alone people (we're not alone)
tell me can U see the light (can ya see the light)

Love, Love, its not that far away if we all say yes and give it a try
(Got ta give it...a try...yes!) still would stand all time U
soul right on the here & now

"Spirit"

In the sands of time I'm running out.

It will never be unfulfilled, and the deck will be filled with aces.
whenever the spirit wills, it leads to higher places.

When all seems lost youv'e got to try..to never let your spirit die.
Never let your spirit die.

Must try to be the chosen few...and keep that love alive.

death from envy is the only way
i can tear shit up y'all cause that's my style
these r the days of wild hit me

hooker bitch and ho i don't think so
i only knew 1 but never told her though
i thought about it many times (diss me?)
but that's the kind of shit that will make u check yo mind
is ur blood type the type that flows
or is ur blood type the type that steroes
a woman everyday should b thanked

it's a freezer burn compared 2 cool
and if u still got loot then who's the fool
but everybody wants 2 take the stand
mind ur own motherfucker and let a man b a man
i can tear shit up y'all cause that's my style
and these r the days of wild

Especially for those in Memphis today....

Uno para todos, y todos para uno {One 4 all and all 4 one}
March, we march

(Whoa) {x6 in BG}
March, we march {x2}

If this is the same avenue my ancestors fought 2 liberate
How come I can't buy a piece of it even if my credit's straight?
If all the water's dirty and I wanna lay the pipe, my dammy
The river that I drink from, will it be the same as your mammy?

CHORUS:
Now's the time 2 find a rhyme (Yeah)
That's got a reason and frees the mind (Yeah)
From angry thoughts, the racist kind (Yeah)
If we all wanna a change then come on get in line
Next time we march (Whoa)
We're kickin' down the door
Next time we march (Whoa)
All is what we're marchin' 4

If this is the same sister that U cannot stop calling a bitch (Bitch)
It will be the same one that will leave your broke ass in a ditch (Ditch)
If U can't find a better reason 2 call this woman otherwise
Then don't cry, U made the bed in which U lie

CHORUS

(Whoa) {x4 in BG}
March, we march (Come on)
March, we march
Yes we do!

Dig..
Now we clarify 4ever, in other words as long as it takes
We ain't got no use 4 ice cream without the cake (Umm)
We ain't got no time 4 excuses, the promised land belongs 2 all
We can march in peace but U best watch your back if another leader falls

March, we march
[Feet stompin'!]
March, we march

He said it, she said it and I say...
Now's the time (now's the time) 2 find a rhyme (Yeah)
That's got a reason (Yeah) and frees the mind (free your mind)
From angry thoughts, the racist kind (Yeah)
If we all wanna a change then come on get in line (Get in line!)
Next time we march (Whoa)
We're kickin' down the door
Next time we march (Hey yeah) (Whoa)
All is what were marchin' 4 (Whooaa)

Next time we march (Oh yeah) (Whoa)
Kickin' down the door
Next time we march (Hey yeah) (Whoa)
All is what were marchin' 4

The fun don't stop the bacon
That's when the money gonna stop the shakin'

I know that next time we march, yeah

Can't reply to this w/o mentioning Gold... which as whole stirs my soul cool

Damn U...

Like animals just born 2 breed
Come to think about u baby, ur my only need
eye'm on fire 'till u come and put me out

mushy

He gets me a lot with the delivery of the lyrics just as much as the lyrics themselves.

Come bathe with me
Let's drown each other in each other's emotions
Come bathe with me
Let's cover each other in perfume and lotion
Come bathe with me
Let me touch ur body 'till ur river's an ocean
Come bathe with me
Let's kiss with one synonomous notion


This question is actualy pretty difficult hmmm cuz there's so much. And I think the delivery is what's making me swoon more than the lyrics... but with Gold, it IS the lyrics... or the music batting eyes
had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone

Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4

Remember the time we swam naked
In your father's pool?
Boy he was upset that night
But boy was that ever cool

Remember the night we played pokeno 4 money
And u robbed me blind
Remember how u used 2 scream so loud
Cuz u hated that number 9

Hey, I saw your sister skating on the lake
This afternoon
Good Heaven how she's grown
She swoons the boy skaters she's so tall

But of all your father's children
All your father's children, baby
U know, u are the finest of them all
U are brighter than the northern star

Last night I spent another lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u, u should've been there
U see, of all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Yeah

My momma used 2 say
Always trust your lover
Now I guess that only applies 2 her
Cuz baby u promised me
Baby u promised me u'd never leave
Then u died on the 25th day of December
Oh baby

Last night I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darling, baby, u, u should've been there
Cuz all the 1s I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4
Yeah

Your father said it was pnemonia
Your mother said it was strep
But the doctor said u were dead
And I, I say its senseless

Every Christmas night 4 7 years now
I drink banana daquaris 'til I'm blind
As long as I can hear u smilin' baby
U won't hear my tears
Another lonely Christmas is mine
Yeah, mine
Yeah
Another lonely Christmas is mine

Last night, yeah, I spent another lonely, lonely Christmas
Darling, darling, u should've been there, yeah
Cuz all the 1's I dream about
U are the 1 that makes my love shout
U see, u are the only 1 I care 4

Another Lonely
Rhythm floods my heart♥The melody it feeds my soul

*if i was your girlfriend
would u remember?
to tell me all of the things you forgot (he wants a bond with her mushy)
when i was your man!.. hey hey.. when i was your man..
if i was your best friend
would u let me
take care of u? (bond mushy)
and do all the things
that only a best friend can (bond mushy)
only best friends can

If I was your girlfriend
If I was your girlfriend


if i was your girlfriend
would u let me dress u? (bond mushy)
i mean, help u pick out your clothes
before we go out
not that you're helpless
but sometimes, sometimes
those are the things
that bein' in love's about


If I was your one and only friend
Would U run 2 me if somebody hurt U
Even if that somebody was me?
(omgosh a bond mushy)
Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be*


this song is about a man singing to a woman emotionally.. he is opening his heart up to her and wants intimacy.. this is beyond sex.. for a man to want this.. is a woman's fantasy dream.. he wants intimacy mushy ..and then he goes into wanting to wash her hair, hanging out @ the movies, crying together over the film eek, .. Prince had SERIOUS inspiration when he wrote this song... my gosh mushy .. *needs Kleenex now* mushy

He did nod
It's so cute. I heard the whole story behind it. How he was with Susannah at the time and was somewhat jealous of the closeness she had with Lisa & Wendy and he felt a little left out. He wanted that kind of relationship with Susannah mushy
Can't help but sympathize with him. The delivery of every line is just beautiful in itself. Especially in the parts where he repeats the last part of a line.


I'd like to add another song to the mix.
Haha... actually they're not the lyrics of the song... the music "Circle of Amour" stirs my soul and makes me want to feel like dancing... so beautiful. And it seems to go into the same issues... about the closeness girlfriends have with one another... so sweet mushy
