It's time for you to go to the wire

It's your time (Time)
You got the horn so why don't you blow it
You are fine (Fine)
You're filthy cute and baby you know it

You're so good
Baby there ain't nobody better (Ain't nobody better)
So you should
Never, ever go by the letter (Never ever)
You're so cool (Cool)
Everything you do is success
Make the rules (Rules)
Then break them all 'cause you are the best
Yes you are

The lyrics to Prince's (The Artist) song, Cream, are a celebration of self-confidence and living life on your own terms. The first verse encourages the listener to go all in, to put everything on the line and take risks because of their burning desire. The chorus is an irresistible invitation to get up and dance, to surrender to the beat and let go of any reservations. The second verse extolls the listener's virtues, telling them that they are so good that they should never be bound by rules, but rather make their own and break them. The song is a call to embrace one's inner power, to revel in one's strengths, and to live life dynamically and on one's own terms.

@sophiahumes
Prince was one of a kind. We will never have another one of him.
@evancampbell8894
We must love them before they’re gone if we can
@user-lu1qt4lc2b
What a legend!!!!❤❤❤ still listening in 2024!!!
@kennethrutledge-gi3ul
This is the reason the music of today can't , won't and never compete with this music. Absolutely pure genius
@lucas82
Such a ridiculously talented man. Amazing voice, killer dance moves, great songwriter, insane amount of game, and, if the legend is to be believed, a good basketball player too.
@henrirennet9306
How many albums did you sell by yourself ?
@KundoKun
It's all about being confident in yourself and not conforming to others' expectations. Prince encourages us to take risks and follow our own path to success.
@Brian2017
Exactly
@giuseppelibertino6714
Prince was the only man who could wear high heels and lipstick, and still take your woman.
@johanjonsson3591
And then i would be mad, Not that for he took my Woman but for not taking Me!
