Me: I'm going to call it "the app formerly known as twitter"

Me: I should look up the original context for this

Bbc article: Prince legally changed his name to an unpronounceable symbol...

Me: Kinda like Twitter did

Bbc: ... as an F U to his record company for demanding he constantly churn out music and do ads

Me: HELL YES STICK IT CORPORATIONS ARTISTS ARE NOT FREE CONTENT FARMS 🎉🎉🎉🎉

💜☔4/21/16☔💜

Touch, if you will, my stomach. Feel how it trembles inside.

I know times are changing.

Sometimes I feel so bad, lost in my shadow of pain, I feel like the sun is never gonna shine.

Lately, trouble winds are blowing hard, and I don't know if I can last.

"Somebody make the sun shine, somebody take this dark cloud away, help me, I'm drowning, mass confusion in my head"

Even the soldiers need a break sometimes.

Turn the lights off, strike a candle, listen to the groove and let it unwind your mind.

I don't know, I don't care, honey, let's go everywhere.

Take me to another world, take me tonight.

Without the help of a margarita or ecstasy, shoot me up, baby, let's take a trip.

Nothing's forbidden and nothing's taboo, it's all about being free, that's where I want to be.

Bring out what's been in me for far too long.

Tonight we're gonna jam from now until eternity, don't you stop, make it hot.

So long I have listened to your voice, I feel some kind of love for you and I don't even know your name.

Now my mind is open to poetry seldom heard, and I like it, I like it.

Plethora of euphoria in everything you do that keeps me satisfied.

Baby, baby, when I lay with you, there's no place I'd rather be.

You keep me happy, don't want this night to end if you're with me.

I want to meet you, kiss you, love you, miss you, and do it all over again.

If I'm stuck in some kind of groovy wet dream, don't pinch me.

I don't wanna wake up.

Take me away.

Above, 👁️ interwove lyrics from various Prince songs 2 convey what his music means 2 me. What does he mean 2 U? 👁️'d love to hear Ur thoughts.

No matter what happens, good or bad, the world keeps on turning so quickly, at dizzying speeds. It's easy to lose yourself in it all, but listening to his music is grounding, healing, and restoring for me. Without it, I feel like a piece of me is missing.

It's been over 17 days since he's left planet earth, I think about him every rising sun. Wherever he is, I hope he's having fun.

Remember 2 always have love 4 one another.
