Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes - Supernova

[MissZero]

I was wondering if anyone else here had a copy of Left Eye's "Supernova" CD. It's an awesome CD, I was lucky enough to grab an imported copy (it only came out in Europe). The sngs on it are so deep and really make you think. I thought this album was too good to be a flop. Some songs are funky (Block Party, Jenny, Hot), others are spiritual (Breathe), and others are just well...awesome lol. If you get the chance to get this album you should.

LISA 'LEFT EYE' LOPES LYRICS


Breathe

Woman of my own and tranquil key
No I'm not just the L out of TLC
Songstress for the longest
Felt more adappa as a rappa
Start to make what it seems
It's more mind over matter
Have fun
Comin' with beats & rhymes
But it's not so sweet in this light of lime
Sometimes when you make it people get mad
Throw buckets grab, backs get stabbed
It was a hard struggle, meaning ****
Now it's hard just tryin' to juggle this, among ****
So people see the smile
All the while I have an inner child
That's cryin' denial (cry in denial)
Cryin' no smile, cryin' with style of beguile
In piles in aisles of niles
Meanwhile seem so senile, fakes monsters
I'm docile, fragile
I show gentile smiles, I take it a mile
People don't see the truth, in this booth
Under my tongue, over my tooth (ah-ooohh)
Eight nine spoof of my inner youth
Innocence

So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange
So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange

Just breathe and let it go (let it go)
Just breathe and let it go (let it go)

It seems right, do the math
Sportin' laughs, bubble baths, autographs
Awards and claps
The glistenin' only comes if people listenin'
But to a lyricist, chastising conniving, criticists
Gotta earn your bliss, unchill your wrists
I know you mince, add bills to rent
So now you owe me
That's why I'm so into it
This tapestry
Put you abstract, non-skilled folks can't see
I hinted at them, add tracks
Don't care if you're mad at
I speak the past
I speak rash spirits
Universal, helped my lyric rehearsals of the here's
Become an adult from peers, much fears, such tears
Scorned from revelations dawn
Things I do like, morning lawns
I'm morning poems
That now yawnin' on
They're not spawning wands (they're not spawning wands)
This here wand has a magic stick
Throat-wise called the Larynx
Helps me spill it, my utter of a mind
I milk it
So that it hits your back with spiritual parmalat
I farm the black
Spirit staff, Spirit staff, Spirit staff

So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange
So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange

Just breathe and let it go (let it go)
Just breathe and let it go (let it go)

So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange
So just close your eyes
And relax your mind
As the sounds dig in your brain
Now don't it feel so strange

Just breathe and let it go (let it go)
Just breathe and let it go (let it go)

I think because it didn't do as well as planned in the UK.

Oh....usually the UK dont respond well to new artists who have released 1 single then an album. Usually albums sell better if a few singles are released first

Yeah, I'll bet if she released Untouchables with 2Pac she would've sold more albums.

Yeah...its surprising she only released 1 single as well

TLC were more popular in the US than UK so she should have released it there

Thats's true. If her death wasn't so untimely there probably would've been 2 more singles but after that happened it just kind of shut everything off with it. Like I said, i was lucky to be able to find an import.
