Erykah Badu
Misunderstood
Lyrics from Funk Flex Premiere

[Chorus: Erykah Badu]
Sometimes, I feel like I should
Maybe I would if I could
You know I come from the roof
That's why I'm misunderstood

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Yo, one for [?], my first and my last daughter
Two for the team taking the lead in the last quarter
Three for the impact of the African [?]
[?] but maybe never toss the baby in law with the bath water
We order, erase the limelight [?]
If you wanna move the world, [?] take different strokes
That's why since the beginning I been humble as [?]
I figured I could ask the whole world to rumble but why
When I can follow my trajectory as one of a kind
I never lived in Illinois, so how I come from the Chi?
Get in the [?] who was born to be way more than a performer
It was formerly so vulnerable

Sometimes when I started winning, I had to be the karma
You get what you ask for, Tierra
We the gas
Get your passport, we getting off for the back porch
And my attitude has always been blacker than asphalt
When we blast off, we show 'em how production sound
[?] side to side, straight up and down
Above the clouds, yeah
It's all love with the supreme
I can't stop

[Chorus: Erykah Badu & Black Thought]
Sometimes, I feel like I should (Uh, it's all love)
Maybe I would if I could (I can't stop)
You know I come from the roof (Ayo, it's all love)
That's why I'm misunderstood (Queen)

[Verse 2: Tierra Whack]
How do I explain this?
I feel safe in the most dangerous places
Hope my death ain't painless
Pain made me who I am
And most crimes are heinous
From the dirt but I came out stainless, uh
Wipe the dust off my lap
Couple
They can copy
That's facts

With my boom bap
No hand outs, my hand out reaching for soap and water

A few grand left for my granddaughter
Flowing like I lived underwater
Reporting live from the trenches
I'm just chilling in my trenchcoat


Outside like a tent
I'm still loading up, only on fifty percent
They say I sold out
[?]

[Chorus: Erykah Badu & Black Thought]
Sometimes, I feel like I should (Yeah, it's all love)
Maybe I would if I could (I can't stop)
You know I come from the roof (Ayo, it's all love)
That's why I'm misunderstood (Let's get it)
Sometimes, I feel like I should (It's all love)
Maybe I would if I could (I can't stop)
You know I come from the roof (Ayo, it's all love)
That's why I'm misunderstood (Uh, ayo)
