Letra

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Yeah, uh
Misunderstood, we do this for the people that walk that path
Tryna get to their dream, yeah, uh
Oh
[Verse 3]
He stood on the corner with the rest of them
Though he knew that this corner wsn't the best of him
Hard streets and a life that crested him
Dir police domestic beefs that's festerin
He knew the President wasn't addresin' him
Though dead Presidents was addressing him
[Verse 4]
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 'em
[Verse 5]
He on the ground, he could feel God touching him
He heard the sound of his mom saying, trust in Him
At heaven's gate, saying, Lord, please let me in
Or send me back to tell my people to be better men
[Verse 6]
Misunderstood
'Cause we are, misunderstood
Misunderstood, don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just human, oh
[Verse 7]
She dance and 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
[Verse 8]
Some dreams get lost, never to be found again
At first stripping seemed so empowering
Most every girl wanna do it now and then
But being meat every day is devouring
Cats putting paper where she put powder and
Life would break her, now she powdering
She was high when she fell down and then
Crowd surrounding and heart was pounding and
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
Misunderstood
'Cause we are, misunderstood
Misunderstood, don't let me be misunderstood
I'm just human
[Verse 11]
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 grandmas sang, we all need Jesus
[Verse 12]
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
[Verse 13]
Misunderstood, don't, don't let me be, misunderstood, don't
Misunderstood, don't, don't let me be, misunderstood, don't
I'm just human
