[00:-4.00] Lisa Left Eye Lopes - L.I.S.A.
[03:53.96][00:-1.00]
[00:22.95] Ya'll never really know me from the stories i tell
[00:25.96] From the lifestyle i lead and the records i sell
[00:28.93] Caught up in situations detrimental to me
[00:31.90] And i been through every war just for the world to see
[00:34.91] (that time) is always moving situations do change
[00:37.76] (and things) don't always work out just the way that we planned
[00:40.67] (still stand) necessary be my friend and my foe
[00:43.58] Either love me or you hate me, that's how the game goes
[00:46.44] (if it's wrong) to be respected never ever say die
[00:49.01] (remain strong) never neglected spread my wings and fly
[00:52.27] (like you) i've been though struggles so much stress on my brain
[00:55.21] Actin' out my life on stages and still had to maintain
[00:57.89] (question every decision) my intentions were good
[01:00.72] Twist the story all around and leave me misunderstood
[01:03.65] (imagine that) no privacy but that's the price of this fame
[01:06.68] (under attack) my destiny to be a soldier through fame
[03:17.90][03:05.49][02:31.30][02:19.30][01:21.50][01:09.73] Let me live live
[03:19.89][03:08.31][02:33.44][02:21.68][01:23.71][01:12.13] Let me live
[03:21.09][03:09.53][02:34.58][02:22.81][01:24.80][01:13.10] In in side inside intelligence
[03:23.93][03:12.35][02:37.42][02:25.60][01:27.46][01:15.72] Say say say say what you gotta say
[03:15.08][02:28.52][01:18.82] Always asking you will amazed
[03:26.60][02:40.06][01:30.22] Always ask and you will amazed
[01:33.26] Just to make it in the world and go against all odds
[01:35.95] Come from the gritty inner city to a superstar
[01:38.94] Number one hits consistently for ten long years
[01:41.63] Put my soul in every project my blood sweat and my tears
[01:44.49] Ya'll know my status
[01:46.30] Left eye the badest
[01:47.78] Underestimate don't hate and i keep it lavish
[01:50.51] But it don't mean nothing if i can't find peace of mind
[01:53.45] Packing all distractions away leave them behind
[01:56.45] Say goodbye hard times small crimes and felonies
[01:59.33] A new beginning i'm winning envisioning the breeze
[02:02.34] I'm dressed in all white linen and falling to my knees
[02:05.27] Thankful for all that's been given, i'm living, with ease
[02:08.13] Tropical trees 90 degrees, please
[02:10.98] Do like the birds and the bees and start a family
[02:13.90] So remise on every line that i wrote
[02:16.58] Know that i never will surrender and it's truth that i spoke
[02:53.87][02:43.01] I flew i flew like water like water
[02:56.97][02:45.55] Am i desire like fire like fire
[02:59.88][02:48.04] I'm picking up the dirt from the earth the earth
[03:02.67][02:50.88] Imaging i'm the wind redelivering from people within
[03:29.72] Let me live live, let me live
[03:32.53] Let me love love, let me love
[03:35.43] Let me learn learn, let me learn
[03:38.26] Let me laugh laugh, let me laugh
[03:41.26] Let me see see, let me see
[03:44.39] Let me say say, let me say
[03:47.09] Let me smile smile, let me smile
[03:49.96] Let me ask ask, let me ask
