This is the version that my friend L CON (Producer, singer, recording artist/multi-instrumentalist) re-imagined, remixed and sang on. It's my favourite version of the song cause I can dance to it, in the privacy of my home. Please check out her music as well, her song WINNER is my fav!!!!

I wrote 'Prudence' shortly after an artist had a photographer take my photograph. She had that photo enlarged onto a 48/36 inch canvas, and then she painted on top of it. She painted glasses and a cig in my mouth and painted me darker. The next time I saw it, I was lighter, without glasses and a cig. It inspired me to write the song. This song is about revealing your true self—no matter what anyone's perception; no matter which angle you may shine.
lyrics
La la la, la la la, la la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la la
My mask if I could tear it off and paint on top
And show it like some smoke and mirror scene
Those words would not come out of a single sentence you’d say
When you look forward they can see you
You're in the angles in sea foam green, yeah you
Light up so bright, you become yellow
You’re just like sunshine, you know it too
When you look forward
Oh can you see me
I’m in the angles
Prism of perception
I’ll shine your colours
Come here and love me
When you look forward
Oh can you see me
I’m in the angles
Prism of perception
I’ll shine your colours
Come here and love me
When you look forward
They can see you
You’re in the angles in sea foam green, ya you
When you look forward
They can see you
You’re in the angles in sea foam green, ya you
Light up so bright, you become yellow
You’re just like sunshine, you know it too
When you’d
Smile for the photograph
Smile for the photograph
Smile for the photograph
Shine for the photograph
Smile for the photograph
Shine for the photograph
Smile for the photograph
