Prince - New Power Generation (Pt. II) lyrics

Don't pick my apples, don't pick my peaches {sample from "My Tree"}

Leave my tree alone, leave it alone, leave it alone

(Well, yeah yeah yeah...)

(Don't U look at me)

If U're sad and U know it and U think U wanna blow it

Look up in the sky, love is there!

Oobey shoo doo loo be doo, loo fly me shoo koo doo ooh {x3} {Sample from "Oobey Doop"}

Kid! (Yo?)

Kid, I got 2 do this

I got the noise, I got 2 do this, man

Then pump the big noise, c'mon in the house...

This here rap's about the true confession

If ya listen close U 'bout 2 learn a lesson

U must know failure before success

Now this is the failure I must confess (Well)

I was hanging onto life trying deal with this

Playing the games, almost got dismissed

Cocaine was the thing that I took on

And nowhere was the place that I was goin' (Preach brother, c'mon)

I must tell the truth, I cannot lie

I was headed 4 the kill, steal, destroy, and die

Top 2 the bottom 2 bottom 2 top

Success is where I'm headed, there ain't no doubt

Success is something that we all want

But the truth is what we need 2 reach that point

I had 2 give this message the so-called truth

I hope there's somthin' in it that's there 4 U

Like I said before, I'ma tell U again {"Loveleft, Loveright" CHORUS in BG x2}

Success is something that's deep within

So remember the truth - U can't go wrong

The flesh is weak but the spirit is strong

I know I can do this rap, and I know it's right

Cuz I did it in the name of Jesus Christ

C'mon somebody, lets party 2night!

U want me 2 what?? (Shake!) {sample from "Positive Place"}

Yo, what? (Shake! Shake!)

Alright!
