• These weird looks
    All the glances
    Now I feel like a crook
    I'm done with all the second chances

    I'm misunderstood
    No one really gets me
    My only safety is from my hood
    If only they could see

    People don't understand me
    I get tired of the lies
    Sometimes I wish I was just left be
    Every room is filled with echoing sighs

    I'm misunderstood
    No one really gets me
    My only safety is from my hood
    If only they could see

    I want people to truly understand
    They always look down
    Maybe to me they won't understand
    So I always wear a frown

    I'm misunderstood
    No one really gets me
    My only safety is from my hood
    If only they could see

    So with this in the shadows I lurk
    tears may fall like sprinkling rain
    To get people to understand me is hard work
    Now I must find a way to deal with the pain

    I'm misunderstood
    No one really gets me
    My only safety is from my hood
    If only they could see
