Lil` Wayne Dontgetit Lyrics

Dontgetit Lyrics

Baby you 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

Oh 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 in the ever

Fucking fantastic, fuck if you agree

I'm 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 pain

Now it's young money baby, keep the change



My mama say, '€œFuck '€˜em!'€? And we the same

So hello motherfucker 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 Wayne



I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh lord please don't let me be misunderstood



I was watching TV the other day, right?

Got this white guy on there talking about black guys

Talking about how young black guys are targeted

Targeted by who? America



You see 1 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 that we spend on sending a motherfucker to jail

A young motherfucker 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? Yeah, stuff like that

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

The 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, um, you know the other thing is mostly found

You know where I'm going



But why bring a motherfucker to jail if it's not gonna stand up in court?

Because this drug ain't that drug

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

Ha ha ha, mmm hmm, I guess it's all a misunderstanding



And um, I sit back and think, well shit, us young motherfuckers

You know, that 1 in every 9

We're probably only selling the crack cocaine just because we in the hood

And it's not like they're suburbs, we don't the things that you have

Why? Ha, I really don't wanna know that answer



I guess we're just misunderstood huh, yeah

You know we don't have room in the jail now for the real motherfuckers

The real criminals, you know sex offenders

Rapists, serial killers, shit like that



Oh, don't get scared, don't get scared

I know you saw one them sex offenders papers

Don't trip, he live right on the end of yo' block

Mmm hmm, yeah, that nigga live right down the street from you

Sex offender on the level 3 drug

Convicted, ex-con, yeah check '€˜im out



Hey, what you got? You got a daughter, son? What you got?

Ha ha yeah, you know what, that's the good weed

You know what? I have a fucking daughter, you understand me?

And why the fuck would you bring my neighbor to jail

Just because the reason why he live next door to me

Ain't the reason why I live next door to him



Meaning, he didn't rap his way to my fucking neighborhood

He sold crack cocaine to get to my neighborhood

You move him out, bring him to jail for life

And then you move in a sex offender, ha ha ha, they give me a paper

Ha ha ha, is that a misunderstanding? 'Cause I don't understand it



Another thing, let me take my glasses off

'€˜Cause I wanna see the reaction on the faces when I say this

Uh, Mr. Al Sharpton, here's why I don't respect you and nobody like you

See, you're the type that gets off on getting on other people, ha ha

That's not good, no homo and rather unhuman, I should say



I mean giving the fact that humanity, well, good humanity rather

To me, is helping one another, no matter your color or race

But this guy and people like him

They'd rather speculated before they informate, if that's a word, ha ha ha

You know, spec before check?



Anyway meaning I'd much rather you talk to me first

And see if you can lend an opinion before you make one

Just my thought of good humanity, Mr. Sharpton, ha ha ha

Hold on I ain't finished with you man

I gotta pluck the ashes, mmm hmm, hold on



Um, Mr. Sharpton and anyone like you, you don't know me

So if you're not going to try to, then what you say or think about me

Are whatever I do is totally Casper the friendly ghost to me

And it doesn't make you a good person to criticize before you improvise

Doesn't necessarily make you a bad person either

But the characteristics for heading into bad's way, ha ha ha



But since I am human, I am good and bad, as well

But I try my hardest to stay good

And some of the things I do and say may be bad

Or just not too good, but I do try



So with that said I don't fault you

I mean, you're only human, good or bad

But I also don't respect you and I don't care if that's good or bad, ha ha

You see you are no MLK, you are no Jesse Jackson, you're a nobody to me

You're just another Don King, with a perm, ha ha ha

Just a little more political

And that just means you're a little unhuman than us humans



And now let me be human by sayin' fuck Al Sharpton and anyone like him

Fuck if you understand me, I love being misunderstood

Ha ha, why? '€˜Cause I live in the suburbs but I come from the hood

Bring the hook in



I'm just a soul whose intentions are good

Oh lord please don't let me be misunderstood
