The Guilty Ones.

Walking down the corridor in an introverted gaze
He said, "watch out, the night is young."
He sent the soldiers home much 2 their dismay
All Xcept
The Guilty Ones

Time 2 teach a lessn with the 6 string and the stix
That He was still the master and not some magic trick

Atep in2 a phone booth... all illusions die
The truth comes out 22 acknowledge or deny
movie stars & bank tellers...single moms & drunk fellas
Some easier 2 tease, some harder 2 please (Still He Try)

The whispering of tyrants that seldom go unheard
He's about 2 win them over without a single word

Generation 2 Generation...Let it B upheld
Who Eye really Am only time will tell
2 the Almighty life 4ce that grows stronger with every chorus
Yes give praise, lest ye B among The Gulty Ones

Behold the damage done
Walking down the corridor... the battle has been won
All hail 2 the matador that gives praise 2 the son...
The Gulty Ones

Walking 2ward the Symbol that 4 21 nights upheld
Real music by real musicians
Impact
Time will tell

Night after night
We fought 4 Time/Space historic position
Reserved 4 the one
That gives praise when it's done

2 the Almighty life 4ce
That grows stronger with every chorus
Yes, give praise lest ye B among

The Guilty Ones.



I Love Prince and the Band...I respect them dearly.

What do U guys make of the strength behind these words?
Do U take them seriously?

the proof is in the titles i guess. we've gone from

The Beautiful Ones to The Banished Ones to The Guilty Ones.

(en route passing "The Moors In Spain" )

that about sums up what happened to prince, sadly

They come across to me as pretentious.


No. As far as poetry goes, it all reads a bit twee and embarrassing.
