Lisa Left Eye Lopes - L.I.S.A. |
|
Ya'll never really know me from the stories i tell |
|
From the lifestyle i lead and the records i sell |
|
Caught up in situations detrimental to me |
|
And i been through every war just for the world to see |
|
(that time) is always moving situations do change |
|
(and things) don't always work out just the way that we planned |
|
(still stand) necessary be my friend and my foe |
|
Either love me or you hate me, that's how the game goes |
|
(if it's wrong) to be respected never ever say die |
|
(remain strong) never neglected spread my wings and fly |
|
(like you) i've been though struggles so much stress on my brain |
|
Actin' out my life on stages and still had to maintain |
|
(question every decision) my intentions were good |
|
Twist the story all around and leave me misunderstood |
|
(imagine that) no privacy but that's the price of this fame |
|
(under attack) my destiny to be a soldier through fame |
|
Let me live live |
|
Let me live |
|
In in side inside intelligence |
|
Say say say say what you gotta say |
|
Always asking you will amazed |
|
Always ask and you will amazed |
|
Just to make it in the world and go against all odds |
|
Come from the gritty inner city to a superstar |
|
Number one hits consistently for ten long years |
|
Put my soul in every project my blood sweat and my tears |
|
Ya'll know my status |
|
Left eye the badest |
|
Underestimate don't hate and i keep it lavish |
|
But it don't mean nothing if i can't find peace of mind |
|
Packing all distractions away leave them behind |
|
Say goodbye hard times small crimes and felonies |
|
A new beginning i'm winning envisioning the breeze |
|
I'm dressed in all white linen and falling to my knees |
|
Thankful for all that's been given, i'm living, with ease |
|
Tropical trees 90 degrees, please |
|
Do like the birds and the bees and start a family |
|
So remise on every line that i wrote |
|
Know that i never will surrender and it's truth that i spoke |
|
I flew i flew like water like water |
|
Am i desire like fire like fire |
|
I'm picking up the dirt from the earth the earth |
|
Imaging i'm the wind redelivering from people within |
|
Let me live live, let me live |
|
Let me love love, let me love |
|
Let me learn learn, let me learn |
|
Let me laugh laugh, let me laugh |
|
Let me see see, let me see |
|
Let me say say, let me say |
|
Let me smile smile, let me smile |
|
Let me ask ask, let me ask |
