Wake Up

Wake up Wake up
with all lucidity
it is still possible
to think as if
insanity has set in
Wake up Wake up
No dumber than he or she is me

blinded in my imagination
reality once my friend
my enemy it seems
by my own selection
Wake up Wake
my journey continues
with the brightness of midday
sky
pretending nothing anymore
guided by the Power of Yeshua
moved my the Spirit of Wisdom
Wake Up Wake Up
Awaken I've always been
and now I rise
returning no more to foolish
ways
My worth as precious
as any costly stone
recognizing only a few
can pay such a fee
to love, respect and be with me
Awoke.

My digestion of the 1970s American popular culture in the form of television, film, ads, and music only added to my training, so that by as early as age nine or ten I saw females, includ

If I was your girlfriend

Yeah, another Prince discussion. This man has saved my soul through the years. A follow Prince fan always refers to Prince as the ultimate "pimp". He speaks of how smooooooth Prince is lyrically. I came across the video for "If I Was Your Girlfriend," taken from the Sign of the times film. I started gigglin'. Prince IS a pimp. So clever. Witty. Smooth. Just runnin' game but damn, I'd fall for it. The title alone would get me..... IF I WAS UR GIRLFRIEND - PRINCE
