Lyrics
Don't do love, don't do friends
I'm only after success
Don't need a relationship
I'll never soften my grip

Don't want cash, don't want card
Want it fast, want it hard
Don't need money, don't need fame
I just want to make a change

I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change
I just wanna change

I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh

One track mind, one track heart
If I fail, I'll fall apart
Maybe it is all a test 'cause I feel like I'm the worst
So I always act like I'm the best

If you are not very careful
Your possessions will possess you
TV taught me how to feel
Now real life has no appeal

It has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal
It has no appeal

I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh

I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh

I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly
I'm gonna fail, I'm gonna die
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fly
I'm gonna fail, gonna die, die, die, die

I know exactly what I want and who I want to be
I know exactly why I walk and talk like a machine
I'm now becoming my own self-fulfilled prophecy
Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh

Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh

This is beautifully cut, and a great character study.

[innie_darling]

Well. Clearly I need to see this movie immediately.

[thirdblindmouse]

This is cooool. The movie looks awesome.

[franzeska]

Holy fuck, dude. I've never seen Purple Rain, but now I need to. (No doubt it will still be a formative experience despite me being in my 30s.)

I love your choice of music. Vidding music movies to other music is hard as hell, and this is wonderful. I love the emotions, the fast editing, and your attention to details like the font. Also, OMG hair! Lace! Purple!

[cupidsbow]

Prince is so fabulous. Thank you for reminding me.

[violace]

Holy crap so good.

[verity]

This is so awesome! I love the song choice and editing! EVERYTHING IS SO GREAT

I've never seen the movie, but this vid is amazing!!! Gorgeous work.

omg this is so good. I love everything it chooses to be. Even if I get distracted from your fine editing choices by Prince's overwhelming beauty.

[ghost_lingering]

This is wonderful.

[china_shop]

Wow, this is amazing! Beautifully done!
