Baby understand me now

If sometimes you see that I'm mad

Don't you know no one alive can always be an angel

When everything goes wrong, you see some bad

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

O lord please don't let me be misunderstood

Misunderstood ain't gotta be explained

But you don't understand me so let me explain

Stood in the heat, the flames, the snow

Please slow down hurricane

The wind blow, my dreads swang

He had hair like wool, like wayne

Dropping ashes in the bible

I shake em out and they fall on the rifle

Scary, hail mary no tale fairy

All real very, extraordinary

Perry mason facing, the barrel if he tattle

My god is my judge, no gown no gavel

I'm a rebel, down to battle

Now or never, I would never?

Fucking fantastic, fuck if you agree

But I don't give a fuck if you see me

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

O lord please don't let me be misunderstood

What's understood ain't gotta be explained

So for those who understand meet dwayne

For 8 and a half months I gave ms. cita pain

Now it's young money baby, keep the change

My mama say fuck em and we the same

So hello mothafucka you got some sheets to change

And ain't it funny how people change like easter sunday

You know church fit then outfit,

Bright pink and green chest look house lit

Bright pinky rings but that ain't about this

What you bout bitch

Excuse my french emotion in my passion

But I wear my heart on my sleeve like it's the new fashion

What are you asking, if I don't have the answer

It's probably on the web, like I'm a damn tarantula

But I know you don't understand, cause you thought lil wayne is weezy

But weezy is dwayne

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

O lord please don't let me be misunderstood

I was watching t.v. the other day right

Got this white guy up there talking about black guys

Talking about how young black guys are targeted

Targeted by who? america

You see one in every 100 americans are locked up

One in every 9 black americans are locked up

And see what the white guy was trying to stress was that

The money we spend on sending a mothafucka to jail

A young mothafucka to jail

Would be less to send his or her young ass to college

See, and another thing the white guy was stressing was that

Our jails are populated with drug dealers, you know crack/cocaine stuff like that

Meaning due to the laws we have on crack/cocaine and regular cocaine

Police are only, I don't want to say only right, but shit

Only logic by riding around in the hood all day

And not in the suburbs

Because crack cocaine is mostly found in the hood

And you know the other thing is mostly found in you know where I'm going

But why bring a mothafucka to jail if it's not gon stand up in court

Cause this drug ain't that drug, you know level 3, level 4 drug, shit like that

I guess it's all a misunderstanding

I sit back and think, you know us young mothafuckas you know that 1 in 9

We probably only selling the crack cocaine because we in the hood

And it's not like in the suburbs, we don't have what you have

Why? I really don't wanna know the answer

I guess we just misunderstood hunh

You know we don't have room in the jail now for the real mothafuckas, the real criminals

Sex offenders, rapists serial killers

Don't get scared, don't get scared
