Misunderstood Lyrics - Tha Carter Iii - Lil Wayne

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 everythin goes wrong, you see some bad 

But I'm just a soul whose intentions are good 

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood 

OH, 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 

Droppin 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 facin 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 end it ever 

Fuckin fantastic, fuck if you agree, i am bright 

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

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good 

Oh 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 the 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 

Photos 

Bright pink and green chest look house lit 

Bright pinky rins 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 askin? 

If I don't have the answer its 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 

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood 

I was watchin T.V. the other day, right 

Got this white guy up there talkin about black guys 

Talkin about how young black guys are targeted 

Targeted by who? America 

You see 1 in every 100 Americans are locked up 

1 in every 9 black Americans are locked up 

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

The money we spend on sendin a mothafucka to jail 

A young mothafucka to jail 

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

See, and another thin the white guy was stressin 

Was that our jails are populated with drug dealers 

You know crack cocaine, stuff like that 

Meanin 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 ridin 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 thin is mostly found in 

You know where I'm goin 

But why brin a mothafucka to jail 

If it's not gon stand up in court 

Cause this drug aint that drug 

You know level 3, level 4 drug, shit like that 

I guess it's all a misunderstandin, I sit back and think 

You know us young mothafuckas, you know that 1 in 9 

We probably only sellin the crack cocaine 

Because we in the hood 

And it's not like in the suburb 

We don't have what you have, why? 

I really don't wanna know the answer 

I guess we just misunderstood huh? 

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 

I'm just a soul whose intentions are good 

Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
