Anna Stesia Lyrics

Have U ever been so lonely
That U felt like U were the
Only one in this world?

Have U ever wanted 2 play
With someone so much U'd take
Any one boy or girl?

Anna Stesia come 2 me
Talk 2 me, ravish me
Liberate my mind
Tell me what U think of me
Praise me, craze me
Out this space and time

Between white and black, night and day
Black night seemed like the only way...
So I danced

Music late, nothing great -Music late, nothing great-
No way 2 differentiate -No way 2 differentiate-
I took a chance

Gregory looks just like a ghost
And then a beautiful girl the most
Wets her lips 2 say

"We could live 4 a little while
If U could just learn 2 smile
U and I could fly away, fly away."

Anna Stesia come 2 me
Talk 2 me, ravish me
Liberate my mind
Tell me what U think of me
Praise me, craze me
Out this space and time

Maybe, maybe, maybe I could learn 2 love
I mean the right way, I mean the only way
Perhaps U could show me, baby -show me, baby-

Anna Stesia come 2 me
Talk 2 me, ravish me
Liberate my mind

Maybe, maybe, maybe I could learn 2 love
If I was just closer 2 somethin' -closer-
Closer 2 your higher self
I don't know
Closer 2 heaven -Maybe- closer 2 God -closer to God-

Save me Jesus, I've been a fool
How could I forget that U are the rule
U are my God, I am Your child
From now on, 4 U I shall be wild
I shall be quick I shall be strong
I'll tell Your story, no matter how long -no matter how... no matter-

We're just a play in Your master plan
Now, my Lord I understand

-I understand-

Love is God, God is love
Girls and boys love God above
((repeated over chorus))

This song has much more resonance now. "Anna Stesia" = anaesthesia.

Sounds like he is talking about drug addiction and then kicking the habit.

You know, I never thought of it that way (drug use as stated above)- but I can see that interpretation. I actually think he's talking from a lonely place in life- where he finds that he has God... but it's alot of depth to it that really tugs at your heart.

My Interpretation

I agree with mplssound. In the part where he says "Gregory looks just like a ghost" he seems to be speaking of his son(named Gregory) that died soon after birth. Kinda sets the mood that he was lonely and thought he lost everything and god was there for him.

Cover art for Anna Stesia lyrics by Prince

While this could very well be about the alluring effects and desire for susbstance, I think it might be about an anima projection. Listening it feels almost like a chant to some sort of Goddess. A struggle that almost can't be helped until the songs redemptive ending. To sum it up, borderline whorsphip...This muse is a guilty pleasure and he's hoping that God will love him in a special way, liberate him from the guilt and torment he feels idolizing her. Anna Stesia is like a dream that's too good to be true, a catalyst for his deepest desire and liberation, a fiery distraction from the biblical proverbs he believes. The spiritual tone in it seems to want to test the black and white duality aspect of religion. love and lust, good vs evil...Ending with God is love may be a final thought that we are all taking part, flaws in all, tainted in our love... We are still a part of Gods master plan of higher love. Its like grace. He's trying to break the chains of bondage, wake from the deep sleep, the labyrinth of tunnel vision Anna has him caught up in.

It's about his son Gregory passing away and his marriage to Mayte dissolving.

My Interpretation

@Nolawmn no its not. This song was made long before he even met Mayte.
