What R Ur Favorite, "Prophetic," Prince Songs?

What R Ur favorite “Prophetic,” Prince Songs?

There are many Prince songs that foretell a future event:
~The simple notion of the song, “Still Waiting,” …Waiting 4 the Love 2 come around.
~The sky was all purple that Prince could have sworn it was judgment day in “1999.”
~If she could be, “Muse2thePharoah,”…One day she might be queen.
~Most recently Prince sings, “50 years from now what will they say about us here? Did we care for the water and the fragile atmosphere?” in the song, “Planet Earth.”

Whether the song be about the human race as a whole or an idea that is more isolated or specific such as “Right the Wrong,” that concerns historical tribulations, what is or are your favorite Prince songs with a prophetic concept and why?

In my opinion, I love the way Prince addresses worldly concerns in his music. “The Everlasting Now,” is the ultimate preconceived destination of Heaven being solidified on Earth.
On a romantic note that isolates 2 lovers, I can’t escape the desire to scratch the word, “If,” from the title of the song, “If eye was the man in Ur life,” which could in turn justify the “Fantastic,” hypothesis proposed to females Internationally in the song, “Future Baby Mama,” and reduce that astronomical proposal 2 one love.
Those are a few of my favorites from a couple’s love dream, to the Creator’s World dream.

What are Ur’s? cool

Speaking of that album, "The Dream Factory," is interesting...as if Prince knows what it is like 2 witness people's dreams before they come true.

Which war? The one between greed and poverty as spoken about in the song, "Money don't matter 2nite?"

Or the world series of love between men and woman as proposed in the song, "U got the Look?"

lol

No. Just 'The War'.


Chanting, repeated throughout the song:
One, two. Evolution will be colorized.

I can't hear U, say it!
Y'all ain't ready, I can't hear U, say it

Do like this...

One, two. Evolution will be colorized.

This is the War
Right on. [sarcastically]

The war will go on and on and on...
If U don't wanna miss your Saturday morning cartoons...

One, two. Evolution will be colorized.
One, two. Evolution will be colorized.
Yeah... right on. [sarcastically]

The war will go on and on...
Revolution will be...
Revolution will be...
Revolution will be on and on and...

(One, two) {repeated}

The war will go on and on and on
If U do not wish 2 be in the war U should leave now

We are about 2 challenge what U believe
If U do not wish 2 be challenged U should leave now
Saturday morning awaits

Do U love your country?
Do U love God?
Do U love your country as much as U love God?

If the government...
If the government...
If the government wants 2 put a microchip in your neck, heh heh
(Right on)

Do U still love your country?

The war will go on and on
If U do not wish 2 be challenged, leave now
The evolution will be colorized
One, two, the evolution will be colorized

We are running out of the essentials of life:
Oxygen, water, food, fertile earth

Underground right now as we speak, there is a metropolis
Awaiting, waiting... 4 U, me
Clean air, food 2 eat

Will U go, will U go?
Will U go underground 2 this metropolis, this metropolis paradise?

We are running out of the essentials of life here on earth!
Will U go, will U go, will U go?

Don't U love your country?
If your country no longer exists on this earth
But exists under this earth, will U go?

Underneath in this metropolis, there's food 2 eat, clean air
It's a paradise!

One condition: microchip in your neck

One, two, the evolution will be colorized
(Right on)

Would U stay above the metropolis, the microchip city?
Would U stay above and await your fate?

Do U trust your God?

Would U stay on top of the chip and await your fate?

2night U will be challenged, U best leave now
This war will go on and on.

One, two, the evolution will be colorized
One, two, the evolution will be colorized

Without God there is no country
Without God there is no metropolis
Without God there is no oxygen, there is no food to eat
Without God there is no chocolate microchip 4 your neck

Somebody say it!

One, two, the evolution will be colorized
In other words, there'll be a little bit of U and a little bit of me

One, two, the evolution will be colorized
The evolution will be colorized {x2}

1 4 me, 2 4 U
Preach a lie, not the truth
U give me candy and keep the store
Gonna' need it in the war

I said, 1 4 me, 2 4 U
U preach a lie, not the truth
U give me candy and keep the store
Gonna' eat it in the war

Batter up, pitcher down
What your teachers say, it ain't sound
Pledge allegiance 2 your flag
U tie me 2 a truck, 'n' then U drag

1 4 me, 2 4 U
U preach a lie, not a truth
U give me candy and keep the store
U gonna eat it in the war

U give me AIDS, your history
When it comes 2 mine, another name
Many die and this is true
Red, black, yellow, even Jew
Claimin' God was backin' U
All across, what a fool.

1 4 me, 2 4 U
U preach a lie, not the truth
U give me candy, U keep the store
Gonna eat it in the war

Shall I go on?

So U say
U got a cure?
HIV
I'm not sure

Every seed, fruit 2 bear
The great Babylon, I don't care

We know your name, it's the beast
All of God's child is your feast

When the righteous one plant the seed
No more kids with mama please

Only way 2 get there is the truth, y'all
In the war baby, come on me and U!

Come on! One, two. Evolution will be colorized
One, two. Evolution will be colorized
One, two. Evolution will be colorized
Play your organ, son

One Two.
1 4 me, 2 4 U
Preach a lie, not the truth
Give me candy, U keep the store
What the hell is goin' on y'all?

There's a mountain that's mighty high
Can't reach the top unless U fly
Ain't about the money, it's about the gold
21st century, money just got sold, y'all

You hear me?

Money just got sold, y'all
Check the date.
It's has-been
It's all gone
Your pocketbook is next
It's about the gold y'all

One, two, the evolution will be colorized
One, two, the evolution will be
One, two, the evolution will be
The evolution will be
The... evolution... will... be... colorized

(One, two, the evolution will be colorized)
{repeated till end}

Thank U Marrk for all of the typing to put those lyrics down...I have read these before but I haven't heard the song...

The concept can be frightening on behalf of everyone..I just pray that "Faith," will dominate the world heart and speedily destroy the negativity in this world that causes so much suffering and imbalance. I'm ready 2 Heaven already.

Good morning children
Take a look out your window
Our world is falling
It's almost time 2 go
(Dance)
Dance the Dance Electric
The rhythm is love and love is blind
Love your enemies
There isn't much time, there isn't much time
Look - our world is falling
A rhythm-less house of blinded prophecy
Hear our Master calling
This isn't what He wanted us 2 be
We got 2 dance the Dance Electric
Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul
Come on and dance the Dance Electric
We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go
Don't - it don't make U happy
2 give another someone your own smile
Dance the dance electric
Never mind your hatred, try a brand new style
Dance the Dance Electric
Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul
U got 2 dance the Dance Electric
We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go
We... love... all... enemies
Look - U're livin' in Babylon
Makin', but not feelin' love at all
When your youth is gone, when it comes 2 dawn
A light of truth will shine and U will fall
That's why U got 2 dance the Dance Electric
Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul
U got 2 dance the Dance Electric
We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go
See the light inside of us
U're stuck in living, livin' life as bad
Whatever U do, don't U let your life go without my love
It's the only life that U will ever have
Why don't U (dance) dance the Dance Electric?
Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul
Why don't U dance the Dance Electric?
We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go (almost time 2)
Dance the Dance Electric
Listen 2 the rhythm of your soul
Come on and dance the Dance Electric
We better love each other, it's almost time 2 go

Imago

From the "Greatest Romance Ever sold" maxi-single, Prince's rap with Eve:

"2gether we make the remix a big sellar" -- Prince is suffering to remix of TGRES , which of course went on to become one of the biggest selling singles of all time, establishing Prince as the most popular selling act of the first part of this decade.

Ditto. The "Mommy, why does everybody have a bomb?" part is particularly eerie.

I'm glad U like this thread mzkqueen..

Just because I'm in the mood 2 be playful...what about...The prophecy of goin' down South?

The brochure looks nice but I've never been there, recently that is. In my future I don't guess I would make Prince sleep on the couch very often. cool
