Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes

[three60roundhouse]

Rest in Peace to the fine young musician from the group TLC, whose biggest hits were "Waterfalls" off their ten-million selling CRAZYSEXYCOOL and "No Scrubs" off their 2000 album FAN MAIL. She was a really good lyricist even though I'm not a fan of R&B at all. She was killed in a car crash in Honduras...all other 6 in the car are OK...well, here's a bit that she wrote.

 

I seen a rainbow yesterday

 

But too many storms have come and gone

 

Leavin' a trace of not one God-given ray

 

Is it because my life is ten shades of grey

 

I pray all ten fade away

 

Seldom praise Him for the sunny days

 

And like His promise is true

 

Only my faith can undo

 

The many chances I blew

 

To bring my life to anew

 

Clear blue and unconditional skies

 

Have dried the tears from my eyes

 

No more lonely cries

 

My only bleedin' hope

 

Is for the folk who can't cope

 

Wit such an endurin' pain

 

That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain

 

Who's to blame

 

For tootin' caine in your own vein

 

What a shame

 

You shoot and aim for someone else's brain

 

You claim the insane

 

And name this day and time

 

For fallin' prey to crime

 

I say the system got you victim to your own mind

 

Dreams are hopeless aspirations

 

In hopes of comin' true

 

Believe in yourself

 

The rest is up to me and you

 

RIP "Left Eye" - you really "burned down the house"

 

[Ahazmaksya]

Not really a fan, but It's a tragedy when anyone dies so young

 

RIP

Yep, not sure if you guys saw my sig or not yesterday.

 

TLC was really the first music act that I really liked, myself, I'd say probably when I was 11-12. So, its saddening.

I have to admit I was a tad shocked when I saw that but due to recent events I just figured it wasn't worth replying. Didn't want anything really bad said on a thread made for the sake of paying tribute to the deceased.
