Baby, you understand me now If sometimes you see that I'm mad No one can always be an angel When everything goes wrong you see some bad Well I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
[Common] Yeah, uh (Misunderstood) We do this, for the people that walk that path Tryna get to their dream, yeah, uh (oh)
He stood on the corner with the rest of them Though he knew that this corner wasn't the best of him Hard streets and a life that crested him Dirt police domestic beefs that's festerin He knew the President wadn't addressin him Though dead presidents was undressin him Two kids from hot sex no protection and People don't see how AIDS is affectin 'em It get hard to get the get the God question in Can't find a job so you robbin and hustlin He killed marks and sold dope for cousin 'em Can't believe they would be the ones bucking him He on the ground he could feel God touching him He heard the sound of his moms sayin trust in him At heaven's gate, saying please Lord let me in Or send me back to tell my people to be better men
[Chorus] Misunderstood 'Cause we are - Misunderstood Misunderstood, Don't let me be misunderstood I'm just human, oh
[Common] Uh, yeah She dancin she dance she dance for them Her body move but her mind was manic'n Thinkin I don't know where they hands have been Relationships with men have been so damagin She thought back to when she was at Howard and Dreams of doing scenes with Terrence Howard and Broadway plays and dancin with Alv and them The ones that make it always ain't the talented Some dreams get lost never to be found again At first strippin seemed so empowerin Most every girl wanna do it now and then But bein meat every day is devourin Cats puttin paper where she put powder and Life would break her, now she powderin She was high when she fell down and then Crowd surrounding and, heart was poundin and She fell into a deep sleep the siren sounded and Seen bright lights in the midst of clouds and then Talked to God, feeling like his child again Said Lord let me live so I can make you proud again
[Chorus]
The life we lead, will always lead us And we pray that he, will never leave us It's the price we pay, I guess that's the reason Why my grandma sang, we all need Jesus [2x]
Misunderstood, don't let me be, misunderstood Misunderstood, don't let me be, misunderstood I'm just human
