Don't Say U Love Me
(Don’t say U love me) {x3}
If ever there was a girl of contradiction, baby, that girl is U
One minute U are a stranger, the next U’re my guru
How I miss those moments when I’d crawl into your arms
We were perfect lovers then, what happened 2 your charm?
Don’t say that U love me, baby, cuz I don’t wanna know
Our love is like a roller coaster, up and down we go
Don’t say U love me, I’m sick of this push and pull
U can’t even love yourself so 2 love me, U’re incapable
Don’t say U love me, I am not a fool
Say anything, just please don’t say U love me
I’ve been so naive and blind 2 think U’d do no wrong
Yes, I’m still a dreamer, but the little boy is gone
U used 2 hug me, kiss me, touch me, lick me, fill me with your charm
Then my credit card was in your hand and U say don’t be alarmed? (Whoa!)
Don’t say that U love me, baby, cuz I don’t wanna know
Our love is like a roller coaster, up and down we go
Don’t say U love me, I’m sick of this push and pull
U can’t even love yourself so 2 love me, U’re incapable
Don’t say U love me cuz I am not a fool
Say anything, just please don’t say U love me
Locked in your prison, I forgot about me
But now, my dear, I am here 2 tell U I am free
This little story is not 4 your glory
It’s time 2 pack your bags and don’t forget 2 leave the key
Don’t say U love me
Say anything, just don’t say U love me
If ever there was a girl of contradiction, baby, that girl is U
One minute U are a stranger, the next U’re my guru
U used 2 hug me, kiss me, touch me, lick me, fill me with all your charms
That was then, this is now
Don’t say U love me cuz I don’t wanna know
Our love is like a roller coaster, up and down we go
Don’t say U love me, I’m sick of this push and pull
U can’t even love yourself, 2 love me, U’re incapable
Don’t say U love me {x3}
Say anything, just please don’t say U love me
Don’t say that U love me, baby, cuz I am not a fool
Say anything, just please don’t say U love me
No, I don’t wanna hear it, just go!
Don’t say U love me

An American singer-songwriter, musician, multi-instrumentalist, and actor that produced 22 RIAA-platinum albums during his 40-year career, Prince may be known for one of many different things – his turn as “The Kid” in the iconic film/album/8 ½ minute ballad “Purple Rain”, being the writer behind the acclaimed anthem “Kiss,” rivaling Michael Jackson at the pinnacle of his career, being the inspiration behind censorship laws, or being the artist addressed as an unpronounceable symbol throughout the 1990s—but while many know of Prince, most don’t fully understand the impact his legacy left on this world.

Going by many aliases throughout his life, Prince Rogers Nelson was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on June 7, 1958 with his father’s (John L. Nelson) stage name as his own given one. Growing up, Prince suffered from serious epileptic seizures at a very young age, but he had wrote his first composition of many by age seven, and outside of his love for basketball, he wanted music to be his purpose in life. His tumultuous childhood, witnessing alcoholism and abuse, caused him to find refuge in neighbor André Cymone’s home in his teens, where the two competed in local band competitions, leading to Prince’s introduction to Morris Day alongside music with his cousin’s band 94 East, leading him to be courted by record labels and ultimately signed to Warner Bros. Records with complete creative control; at 19, his debut album, For You (1978) was released – Prince played all 19 instruments on the record.

Influenced by the likes of Miles Davis, Rick James, and James Brown, Prince desired to form a music dynasty and after the success of his next albums – the platinum-selling Prince (1979), the sexually-charged Dirty Mind (1980), and politically-motivated Controversy (1981) – he negotiated for the ability to form his own label and manage artists of his own. Prince’s trademark sexual/religious rhetoric within pop-and-dance, funk-rock sound gained him a following, but his opening slates for Rick James and The Rolling Stones were both negatively received and facing bankruptcy, the young artist began to reach for mainstream popularity. Cashing on the drug-influenced doomsday mania of the times, 1982’s 1999 easily achieved that mainstream appeal, landing him on MTV, music charts, and radio stations across the world.
