Deliverance is an unreleased track recorded in 2006, at an unconfirmed studio (Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA; 3121 at The Rio, Las Vegas, NV, USA; or Circle House, Miami, FL, USA).
In late 2006 or early 2007, it was included as the 12th track on an early configuration of the Lotusflower album (although many of the tracks were released instead on Planet Earth).
In 2017, timed with the first anniversary of Prince's death, engineer Ian Boxill made an EP available titled Deliverance, including Deliverance, I Am, Touch Me, Sunrise Sunset, No One Else, and I Am (Extended). Due to the lawsuit against this release by Prince's estate, this is currently treated as an unofficial bootleg release, and as such, the songs are considered unreleased, despite their availability on mainstream music sites.
