Prince - 2gether - lyrics

Yeah
2gether
Your boy got popped in a driveby yesterday
Hell be lucky if he makes it through the night is what the doctors say
U can take revenge or u can be the one 2 break the chain
U look up in the sky 4 an answer and it starts 2 rain
Chorus:
What are we (what are we) if were not 2gether? (if were not 2gether)
How do we (how do we) make a life thats better? (yeah)
Cuz when we (cuz when we) be killin one another (take each other out)
How do we (huh, how) call each other brother? (mmm, check it)
U tell me
Whats the chance of a brother gettin off the block?
Whats the chance, not a damn if all he wanna do is sell chicken wings and the rock
(chicken wing and the rock)
U can blame the system, u can be the one 2 even the score, huh
Yeah, huh, u look up in the sky 4 an answer and it starts 2 pour
Drop it, huh
What are we (what are we) if were not 2gether? (if were not 2gether)
How do we (how do we) make a life thats better? (yeah)
Cuz when we (cuz when we) be killin one another (take each other out)
How do we (huh, how) call each other brother?
U tell me (tellem)
Why is slangin them thangs, coppin a stroll, flashin a sign
Key topics on a young black mind?
Cuz its the picture that we giveem and they illustrate
Black on black genocide has started 2 escalate
Every brother aint a brother cuz o color, this is true
But I can still say 2 my brother much love boo
Please lord, give me the strength and make it quick
Cuz my people wont take another nightstick, huh
What are we (what are we) if were not 2gether? (if were not 2gether)
How do we (and how do we) make a life thats better? (yeah)
Cuz when we (cuz when we) be killin one another (take each other out)
How do we (how do we) (I dont know) call each other brother?
U tell me
What are we if were not 2gether? (the new power generation)
How do we make a life thats better? (straight up 4 93)
Cuz when we (come on) (killin one another) be killin one another
(come on, come on)
(how do we) how do we call each other brother?
U tell me (yeah)
Yo, its simple
From the old 2 the young
2 uplift we must give the gift
Gift of knowledge, that is
Teach our young
That all in life aint fun
And 2 make a life thats better
My people must stick 2gether
The choice is yours
Chorus
What are we (what are we) if were not 2gether? (if were not 2gether)
How do we (how do we) make a life thats better? (2gether)
Cuz when we (cuz when we) be killin one another (be killin one another)
How do we (how do we) call each other brother?
U tell me
2gether {x2}

Prince - 1999 - lyrics

Dont worry, I wont hurt u
I only want u 2 have some fun
I was dreamin when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin
Coulda sworn it was judgment day
The sky was all purple,
There were people runnin everywhere
Tryin 2 run from the destruction,
U know I didnt even care
cuz they say two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
So tonight Im gonna party like its 1999
I was dreamin when I wrote this
So sue me if I go 2 fast
But life is just a party, and parties werent meant 2 last
War is all around us, my mind says prepare 2 fight
So if I gotta die Im gonna listen 2 my body tonight
Yeah, they say two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
So tonight Im gonna party like its 1999
Yeah
Lemme tell ya somethin
If u didnt come 2 party,
Dont bother knockin on my door
I got a lion in my pocket,
And baby hes ready 2 roar
Yeah, everybodys got a bomb,
We could all die any day
But before Ill let that happen,
Ill dance my life away
Oh, they say two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
Were runnin outta time (tonight Im gonna)
So tonight we gonna (party like its 1999)
We gonna, oww
Say it 1 more time
Two thousand zero zero party over oops,
Out of time
No, no (tonight Im gonna)
So tonight we gonna (party like its 1999)
We gonna, oww
Alright, its 1999
You say it, 1999

Two thousand zero zero party over,
Oops out of time
Yeah, yeah (tonight Im gonna)
So tonight we gonna (party like its 1999)
We gonna, oww

Listen 2 what Im tryin 2 say
Everybody, everybody say party

Prince - 1+1+1 Is 3 - lyrics

If u ain't got no place 2 stay/Come on baby 'round this way
Stay with me baby/But let me tell u how it's gonna b
There's a theocratic order./There's a theocratic order now
This is how it's gonna b/If u wanna b with me
Ain't no room 4 disagree/1+1+1 is 3
Take ur tie and think it thru/If this is what u wanna do
I ain't really that hard 2 please/Cuz 1+1+1 is 3
Stroke ur hair a hundred times/Let me c what I can find
D u know about the order./Do u know about the order, now?
The Banished Ones:
"We are the Banished Ones and we have come 2 dance
If u will not let us, we'll have 2 kick ur pants!"
Who's that knockin' on the door?/Didn't we throw u out b4?
I'm 'bout 2 get rowdy!/I'm 'bout 2 get rowdy, now!
Make me wanna do something.
We could b surrounded in the palace
"Everybody wants 2 get u!"/I don't care
How many y'all just came 2 dance?
Let me c u shake ur pants/We don't give a duck what u got on
U just need 2 work that sexy body all nite long/Come on
Where them Banished Ones at?/"Said they 'round the back"
Don't cut 'em no slack/"I'm gon' tap, tap, tap"
But should I keep this party going?/"Brotha u know that!"
Moneyapolis, sing-Rainbow Children, raise ur hands
If we can't do it, nobody can!
Here they come y'all/Rally 'round the palace now
U know what we got 2 do!
How'd that fool get up in here?
Snagglevoice.
