Symbol (explicit)

All 7 and we'll watch them fall
They stand in the way of love
And we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir-faire
No one in the whole universe
Will ever compare
I am yours now and u are mine
And together we'll love through
All space and time, so don't cry
One day all 7 will die
All 7 and we'll watch them fall
They stand in the way of love
And we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir-faire
No one in the whole universe
Will ever compare
I am yours now and u are mine
And together we'll love through
All space and time, so don't cry
One day all 7 will die

And i saw an angel come down unto me
In her hand she holds the very key
Words of compassion, words of peace
And in the distance an army's marching feet (1,2,3,4 - 1,2,3,4)
But behold, we will watch them fall

And we lay down on the sand of the sea
And before us animosity will stand and decree
That we speak not of love only blasphemy
And in the distance, 6 others will curse me
But that's alright, (that's alright)
4 i will watch them fall(1,2,3,4,5,6,7)

All 7 and we'll watch them fall
They stand in the way of love
And we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir-faire
No one in the whole universe
Will ever compare
I am yours now and u are mine
And together we'll love through
All space and time, so don't cry
One day all 7 will die

[(just how old)]

And we will see a plague and a river of blood
And every evil soul will surely die in spite of
Their 7 tears, but do not fear
4 in the distance, 12 souls from now
U and me will still be here - we will still be here

There will be a new city with streets of gold
The young so educated they never grow old
And a, there will be no death 4 with every breath
The voice of many colors sings a song
That's so bold
Sing it while we watch them fall

All 7 and we'll watch them fall
They stand in the way of love
And we will smoke them all
With an intellect and a savoir-faire
No one in the whole universe
Will ever compare
I am yours now and u are mine
And together we'll love through
All space and time, so don't cry
One day all 7 will die

[(just how old)]
[(just how old)]
[(just how old)]

In the beginning god made the sea
But on the 7th day he made me
He was tryin' to rest y'all when he heard the sound
Sound like a guitar cold gettin' down
I tried to bust a high note, but i bust a string
My god was worried 'til he heard me sing

Don't try 2 clock 'em, they're much too fast
If u try to stop 'em they kick that ass
Without a pistol, without a gun

To tell the truth, tell me what's my line?

My name is prince the one and only - hurt me (you can't stop prince)

Funky fresh 4 the 90's (do that, do that, somebody) (prince)

My name is prince, i don't wanna be king
Cuz i've seen the top and it's just a dream
Big cars and women and fancy clothes
Will save your face but it won't save your soul

Would our lord be happy if he came 2 day?

The funkier i be
The funkier i get, oh shit
Lickety split on the lyric
A new jack in the pulpit
Watch it deacon, your track is leakin'
What is this u're seekin'?
The syncopated rhymes are at their peak
When you jumped on my d.i.c.k.
That's the one thing that i don't play
The jock strap was 2 big 4 u anyway
U're just a simpleton
I'll bust u like a pimple, son
My star is 2 bright
Boy, i'll sink u like the ship poseidon adventure
U're bumpin' dentures 2 be cocksure
There must be more coming from
Your mouth than manure.
So with a flow and a spray, i say hey
U must become a prince before u're king anyway

(do that, do that somebody)
(do that, do that somebody)

It's time i get ig-nig-nig-nig-nig-nig-n-ignorant
Def be the beat that i'm rockin'
Yo so, come get a hit
And put your thinking cap on
U've been forewarned
I call upon the inner forces that i've got brewin'
In my cauldron. that means my nugget...
Sometimes i'm rugged
The style i posses be havin'
The other brothers buggin' and this is 4 those who oppose
And propose 2 overexpose disclose
Pose a threat 2 my brother
Like any other man makin' a stand
I'll be damned if i let u play this hand
I'm the blackjack dealer and the cards are stacked
What do u expect 2 win when u're used to playing craps?

(do that, do that somebody)
Hell yeah, let's get this under the hmm...
(do that, do that somebody)


"damn." it's gettin' tricky
I mean it's a sticky situation
2 resurrect a groove with feeling
And give it this much affection
Passion flows and who knows
What lurks in the gallows of my mind
I put my foot in the ass of jim crow
12 inches of non-stop sole
I'm on a roll with p, and it's time for the show
So do that, do that somebody
Wave your hands in the air
This is a motherfucking party
While u're laying back i'm on the attack paddywhack
Give yourself a bone
This is my house and i'm prone
2 layin' some chrome upside some motherfuckers dome
And i'm out...

My name is prince and i am funky
My name is prince the one and only

My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
My name is prince
