Prince to Perform a Mother's Day Rally 4 Peace Concert in Baltimore - Check Out His New Song Lyrics
Prince has announced a Mother's Day Rally 4 Peace concert in Baltimore in commemoration of the aftermath of the Freddie Gray protests.
The "Purple Rain" singer will hold the "Rally 4 Peace" concert this Sunday (May 10) at the Royal Farms Arena, the Baltimore Sun reports. Tickets for the event go on sale today at 5 p.m.
"In a spirit of healing, the event is meant to be a catalyst for pause and reflection following the outpouring of violence that has gripped Baltimore and areas throughout the U.S.," organizers said.
"As a symbolic message of our shared humanity and love for one another, attendees are invited to wear something gray in tribute to all those recently lost in the violence," read the concert announcement, which arrived a little more than a week after rioting broke out in the city.
The show will take place at Royal Farms Arena.
Prince is expected to perform his yet to be released single, aptly title "Baltimore," at the event.

NOBODY GOT IN NOBODY'S WAY
SO EYE GUESS U COULD SAY
IT WAS A GOOD DAY
AT LEAST A LITTLE BETTER THAN THE DAY IN BALTIMORE
DOES ANYBODY HEAR US PRAY?
4 MICHAEL BROWN OR FREDDIE GRAY PEACE IS MORE THAN THE ABSENCE OF WAR
ABSENCE OF WAR
R WE GONNA C ANOTHER BLOODY DAY?
WE'RE TIRED OF CRYIN' & PEOPLE DYIN'
LET'S TAKE ALL THE GUNS AWAY
ABSENCE OF WAR- U AND ME
MAYBE WE CAN FINALLY SAY
ENUFF IS ENUFF IT'S TIME 4 LOVE
IT'S TIME 2 HEAR,
IT'S TIME 2 HEAR
THE GUITAR PLAY! (guitar solo)
